well, fuck.

I am going to a stupid school run by crazy people.

The registration staff, the people who were supposed to be able to give me official transcripts by today, are on a retreat. On the last day anyone might need to talk to them for the last time anyone can transfer to the UW under the now-discontinued Direct Transfer Agreement.

Does this seem wrong to anyone else?

Looks like winter quarter admission for me, assuming they'll take me without the DTA. Dammit. And I got both the other schools to do me big favors and send things right quick. There's no way to work around this. (I guess if it has to fail, this is better than just someone saying "no", because there's no way the one poor work-study girl in the reg office today is authorized to do it. It's totally impossible, not just someone refusing to bend rules. Still. Argh.)

I hope something can be done. Any chance of getting an exception from UW, on a plea of hardship?

Just a reminder that the word retreat can mean something other than a spiritual gathering. Assholes.

That's just insane.

The wheels of academe never cease to amaze me in their lack of logic.

What the fuck?? That's like giving the entire management structure of a retail chain Christmas vacation off! Um hello people you're supposed to be available during the most hectic and pressing times, not off vacationing!
