For the past two years at UBC, I have busted my fucking ass at school, making goddamn sure that I am taking all the courses required for my degree, and have been passing everything (just barely at times, but 51% is a pass). It may have taken me an extra year to do, but in April, I finished third year, and next year, my last year at school, I

So I post a message on Vista (as per SPEP communication policy). No answer on Wed. Finally today we get a mass email telling us the presentations are rescheduled for June 30th. Love how the admin couldn't be bothered to directly reply to me and apologize for the confusion (I kinda need to know if I should start scrambling to find a case...). Such bullshit how they fuck with students and can't even apologize for it (as in the case of my missing exam, I never got an apology for that.)
I'm glad your issue seems to be a technical glitch, and you at least know they are working on it!

The woman I spoke to said that many other students were calling and freaking out too (understandably so--if you're expecting to be promoted to 4th year, which is a pretty big fucking deal, and you're not, you're going to freak out because your graduation is in jeopardy). So I wonder if they only realized the error after all these phone calls?
Wow, that's pretty fucking rude of the admin...
Why does UBC fuck students around so much?! Thank goodness microbiology has its own undergrad advisor (apparently, not all faculties do), and one who is helpful, at that. (In fact, Dr. Ramey even replied back to me with the info contained in the email.)
