Not happy.

Right now, I have nothing but frustration and irritation towards UW-Madison's English department; moreover, my ENGL 217 (American Literature) professor and TA.

It took five days for me to get an answer about whether or not I could attend a different discussion section (and that was only because I walked up to her and asked about it after waiting five days for an e-mail response) because I am unable to attend the one I'm enrolled for because I have another class that coincides with it that I need in order to graduate. Naturally, between four conversations of going back and forth between my professor and TA, I eventually get the answer, "Oh, I guess it doesn't matter because there's another girl who wants to get into the section you want to switch out of!" from my TA.

Great. So I go to the section and then I am presented with, "Well, you'll still need to enroll in the section and all that. Let me get you the information for the other girl who wanted to switch."  Fantastic.

That was three days ago. After sending her an e-mail that I'd like the information, I still do not have anything out of her.

I'm going to stick with the class, but god damn that's frustrating. I'm going to see my advisor tomorrow and hopefully (although I know this will prove fruitless, I still want to try) get something done about it.
