I've recently received a thoroughly unsatisfactory grade at college, one that doesn't represent the situation in which the work was submitted, lack of teacher, etc. the norm. The difference is that here the establishment has made no attempt to try and help us out by adjusting our marks even though they could. Now, i'm eloquent enough to have written a powerfully worded and strong letter to the director of studies detailing all of the concerns, essentially ripping him a new one and take it all the way to the top of the college.
Now, if I carry on with this it's possible they could somehow get me for plagiarism and kick me out because I'd be rubbing them the completely wrong way which isn't something I usually aim to do. Now the question remains, how far do you go to defend the principle when It's actually you on the line.
I mean it's all well and good when you're supporting a distance and unrelated cause but when you're actually in the center of everything and it's you who's enacting the change, do you back off and take it or do you put it all on the line when everything going right for the first time in your life?
Jeez, this is the kind of time I could do with outside opinions...maybe I'm just being paranoid.
