    This happens every year due to poor planning/replacement of staff/changes in courses/lecturer's hissyfits, etc. You will, for better or worse, get used to it... However, if it isn't resolved, do not let it slide!

    Im sure everyone got paid their salaries - Id be upset if they didnt - not. Middling performance in Irish academic institution - hold the front page - not.

    2 lectures missed already since starting 1st year Business and Law - like they don't have 4 months off in the summer to organise their business.

    Anyone else have lecturers just not turning up? Like randomly, no notice, no apology just like ''we're too important to come to work today.''

    Get used to it - the Business & Law course is stuck between a rock and a hard place. Miscommunication, no communication at all from Law department regarding classes or changes of classes is very common.

    Pretty poor organisation and structure in my experience...

    I was supposed to submit the final project for next Monday. But I can't for lack of supervision support. For subitting only the proposal, it took me 3 weeks because supervisor never reply to email and phone calls. I have to get to him through the head of department. every time. And now I'm late especially because I don't have the support and the answers to my questions on time.:mad:

    Another term another cluster f**k in Business and Law


    So far our heroes have managed to screw up the simplest of tasks - schedule lecturers to show up for classes as advised to students after a 4 month break we call summer holidays.


    Now it turns out that a 4 week break at Christmas is not enough and we have another slew of cancelled lectures i nthe new term.


    Is there any end to the japes these crusaders can dazzle us with?


    Thoughts?
