Fall 2021 Session 1 -- What is YOURPace?

[NoStudentNoCry]

More like 24...I thought maybe since we're in a time crunch she'd get back to me sooner. :/

They might (and many do connect with student ASAP), but are not otherwise obligated to be on call 24 hours a day. There is 72 hours rule, not 24.

Please don't be that kind of unreasonable student. I don't know who your professor is, but some of them teach multiple classes on campus and manage multiple classes with multiple students via YourPace. Show some mercy, professors are people too.

I didn't think I was being unreasonable given that the draft deadline doesn't extend on my end if she doesn't respond to me. Obviously, I'll just throw something together whether or not she responds just so I don't miss the draft deadline.

Well, technically, we have 7 weeks before the draft deadline hits - that's plenty of time to ask questions about finals. Now, I understand that you must have requested the class to be added later (as many of CBE students do, including myself), but still... it's almost the end of term, and again - your prof likely has multiple students and many of them ask time-sensitive questions right before the deadline. Please be patient. They are likely doing their best.

You can try emailing Jessica so she'll push Cody, so he'll push your professor...

You're right, this minor was a last minute add in so as to not let 2 weeks pass while I sit idle waiting for the next term. Even then with 2 courses at a time you technically don't have 7 weeks before deadline hits since you don't get to preview all FAs in advance. And yes, I understand that all of the teachers are doing their best. I simply came here to see if there's anything else I could do. When I first applied at UMPI, I sat patiently for weeks not hearing from them and I didn't want to bother them because I had heard how busy they were. Turns out, my application was overlooked. So please don't misinterpret my post here to other students as me being impatient. I'm merely looking to my peers who are the closest thing that I have as classmates for possible advice or encouragement.

Yes, I understand, I'm sorry if I am overreacting. My partner used to teach at college(s), so reading about "my prof. hasn't responded in 24 hours" makes me feel very uneasy. You'd be surprised to know how often students act as if the entire world must submit to their orders.
You've been also doing your best and last-minute urgencies happen. I hope your professor will get back to your tomorrow.
