I spent the day considering the various implications of the various means of firing my economics class. To be fair to all the paying students, I feel that I have to make it a point to not only get a refund for the class but also take a meaningful stand against the behaviour which is causing me to feel that I ought to leave it. Without even trying to incite ill-will, a number of people (ranging from current students to faculty) have suggested that this behaviour is expected but unacceptable from this teacher—though nobody seems to have the ganas to be a whistle-blower. I don't know why. Sure, he's been there forever, but I don't see that as sufficient reason that he should cheat the students of their time and money.
Hah. And they say I'm not an idealist.
Anyway, I'm trying to decide whether I should mention the possibility of an appeal to the accreditation boards which the school is governed by, or if I should pursue it at the Dean's level exclusively. I'm concerned that if I do pursue it only at the Dean's level, I'll be encouraged to drop the class and even recieve a refund as long as I keep quiet and don't pursue it any farther, though I'm sure that my concern is mostly my own pessimism.

I say from our experience with ICC that you should take it to the top and fire him. I honestly believe that school is run by the Mickey Mouse club!!! Don't even get me started on what Levi had to suffer and deal with. (making a really angry growly face)

A Spoon! Do it with a SPOON!!!
I agree with mom. Levi did have to go through a lot with them... and they wonder why all the Indy kids run over to Coffeyville...You can do it!
