In Trouble

[Azalin]

The pledge master wasn't available yesterday, so I talked to two other officers. They've actually never heard of the program I'm in, but they seemed to want to help, and they're going to call the front office today to see if what my friend told me was valid.

I have a class with my counselor on Thursday, so I'll probably ask him about it afterwards.

If I were you, I would be getting in touch right now with either your academic adviser or person in charge of the program.

Do not wait for others to check into your program for you.
After all, it is your program not theirs.

Back when I was in school, the program I gained admission to told us that we were not to work, be involved in school organizations, get married.. on and on and on, while we were in the program because the program was too demanding and we couldn't handle any outside commitments. Well, almost all of us ignored that "advice" (it wasn't truly a ban because ..come on, they don't have any right to say what you do in your free time). I worked two jobs, was an officer in Alpha Gam, and was involved in another organization AND graduated Magna Cum Laude from this "demanding" program. I get peeved when I hear things like this because it seems to me that it's up to an individual to know what they can and cannot handle and to manage their time how they want!
