I didn't find a related thread to post this, but I guess here I go. I just hate to feel angry or evil, even when I'm standing for something.
Today was enrollment day in my college, there are 2 days and I'm most of the time schedueled to enroll on 2nd day. As many of other students I sometimes struggle to find free quota or space on classes and I'm not able to take that class. This has been a problem for years, since I started studying there many people can't enroll even a single class because there are not enough classrooms, professors, etc. Today a guy answered a students post (who was concerned of this issue) and the guy just told him that's a fair system and the university is just making "successfull" students advance and removing not so good students, and those students are lazy.
Btw, the enrollment appointment is based on how many classes you took and passed the previous year, i.e. My appointment for today was based in 1st semester, 2018 scores.
I replied to him that I desagree with him because a student never fails a class because he liked it, there are many reasons someone could go wrong, family problems, personal issues, I mean in this forums we all know how it is like to feel anxious, sad, depressed, etc, and even when we try our best we can fail.
I understand the fact high score students go first and enroll with the best professors and schedueles, but leaving someone without education because there aren't enough resources, or even worse (like in my uni's case) because the new classes and space are horrible calculated by the administration?
I myself had to abandon a couple of classes a couple of years ago because I was going through a bad time, a colleague told me last semester he had to abbandon a class because of family issues and I support him because I know family and mental health ave more important than a class in a semester, what about students who are also parents and need to take care of their children?
I "may" understand if this happends in a private university, but my university is public, right to education is written in constitution and we have already passed the admision test to be accepted there, we also pay for the semester and to be honest (and a lot of older professors whom I have talked to agree) the actual workers/professors are just crap and lazy so many interested students could fail because of the bad performance of their teacher. Now, I0m not saying we as students aren't guilty and we should pass every class with the less effort, but even when we do our best external factors like depression and fatigue can play us bad.
Anyway, II started to feel offended and many other people agreed with me, the "only high score students should prevail guy" is a well known "troll" on students fb group but nevertheless. I guess I started to feel like when Bruce Banner starts to transform into Hulk and how afrad Bruce is of unleashing a beast. I just hate the angry me, it is like Dr. Jekyll and the monster Hyde.
