should I go after the disability thing? you know, if he found a guy in a wheelchair 'upsetting" that would be just too damn bad. you can't kick someone out for having CA.

on the other hand, i really don't want to antagonize the guy. english IS my major (or, at least, it was). *sadface*

ok, stop and take a breath.

do you think he kicked you out because he doesn't "like" people with cancer? or is it possible, albeit strange that he might genuinely be having an emotional reaction here.
I personally wouldn't go the disability route because I would want to explore all other options first.

yeah, it might be an emotional reaction. his emotional reaction has just cost me my financial aid package, though and he KNOWS this. you know---i must have been mafi in my previous life for all this payback.

I just did my Freezer Spell, though, and I feel a bit better. It's truly, TRULY his loss coz my paper was gonna be excellent.

I was poised to recommend just that when I read the first half of your post... but, you probably have little recourse if you're auditing. If you've paid an audit fee, he probably has to let you come to the course, or they have to give you the fee back--and most places give individual instructors wide latitude as to whether they will take auditors. (He's definitely within his rights to not grade your paper, I'm afraid.)

If you didn't pay an auditing fee, I'm afraid the official ranks of the administration will probably say you shouldn't be in the class anyways.

This sucks sucks sucks.. you might speak to someone in disabled student services... but if you're not registered for credit, my guess is they won't be able to do much.

It was under HIS guidance that she started auditing.

They can too do much. They won't if you don't push it. It's inexcusable, and I can tell you without a doubt if our VP of Student Services got wind of she would find out what the hell is going on.

As I said: things CAN be done, concessions CAN be made.

But what do I know?
