I'll tell you, I don't know.
I believe that I was upset with my Autism professor, who seemed to teach in a way that would be especially difficult for an individual with Autism to understand, also I ended up soloing 3 group projects.
Independent of that, our counseling professor (who doesn't do a single thing he teaches) keeps encouraging me to get tested for Autism, yet I don't see how that would benefit me for school.
Standard accommodations would be a notetaker, which they already denied me, but I only have one class left.
If I have managed 63 credits without accommodations, I should be okay with 3 more.
I realized the difficulty might not be as much with the Autism professor.
We had a Russian lady in her fifties who failed a class the first quarter and wasn't in the class with that professor the second quarter.
I didn't realize she wasn't in our class, but she kept talking to me after our first class ended, and I kept wondering "Don't we need to go to class with all of our classmates?"
When I finally left, I missed the entrance ticket, which hurt my grade 1-2%, so not so much my professor being a hard grader or inflexible, and more not checking the schedule and rushing to our next class.
D'oh!
To sum up #77, a couple of pages and 1,631 words:
I had deferred maintenance on my car, but a coil pack went out, which I had not planned on replacing, and the spark plugs, which I had planned on replacing, were aftermarket, so hopefully they were fine, but I replaced them to be sure.
I keep wondering how much a shop would have charged, but I couldn't find an estimate for replacing the plugs and packs.
I have had two male clinical supervisors who just wanted to work, one female in a clinic who fired me after two days, and my school sent me back to my first site.
The fourth quarter, they sent me to a behavior school an hour away with another male SLP, who just wanted to work.
I was supposed to have another female supervisor in a nearby clinic, but I never interacted with her.
I tried to follow up for months and then halfway through the quarter, the coordinator realized the SLP they had picked didn't see clients for them.
Then I had a virtual interview with two ladies with a third clinic, 2.7 miles away from the second, and they already had some side of the story.
The interview did not go well and they did not want me, but within a few hours, someone reached out from a charter school, and everything seemed great until I actually talked to the SLP, a female.
She didn't answer my questions and only responded to about half of my e-mails. The second male SLP said this lady just gave me the runaround before declaring she couldn't work with me.
She never tried.
School sent me back to the charter school an hour away and that has gone well again.
I moved half an hour from school, but they periodically tell me to come in for meetings, and twice they decided to blame me for things outside of my control.
I successfully argued that not everything was my fault and the professor just slumped in his chair, folded his arms, and looked away.
I successfully argued and just made him angry?
The counseling professor, who scheduled my clinicals, ordered me to meet with him and another professor between clinicals and class.
I asked to reschedule to ensure I would be able to have enough clinical hours and they put me on academic probation.
The first day of class, also the first day of clinicals, as well as the first day of meeting with those professors when I wouldn't necessarily be able to get enough clinical hours, I was also supposed to come into school and get a flu shot.
I had been able to get one for free through the local pharmacy, but this time I called the 10 closest place on the VA's website, all of which were supposed to help me for free, but all of them said it would cost $20-60.
I wasn't allowed to attend my virtual class until they approved the paperwork from my flu shot, so I paid Costco $20, and lost points with the professor who keeps almost failing me, but again, part of that was not checking the schedule when I was sure we were supposed to be in class and a classmate kept talking to me.
