Alcoholic Professor Screws Over A Graduating Senior

I received this email today from Professor X explaining why he gave everyone incompletes on their transcript.

If you have tried to find your course grade on OASIS or on WebCT, you will have become aware that you received an incomplete.

I was forced to take this step because I was unable to complete my grading in time, and I will systematically file incomplete removals in the next couple of days.

For most of you this is an inconvenience, as you have completed all your work, and have a right to expect a final grade in a timely manner. I apologize for the delay.

If your work is complete, your exam grade and course grade will post to WebCT, to which you should have access for some time. If you cannot find this information please e-mail me requesting it.Again, I am sorry for any inconvenience.

Ok, this would not be a problem if I wasn't graduating! Because of his inability to keep up on his grading I get screwed over and I will not be given my diploma till HE manages to fix the wrong he could have easily avoided! It is very frustrating to pay the consequences for a prof that is absent minded, unprepared for class and usually a wee bit tippsy. I sent a pleasant email to my advisor complaining and I sent an email back to the prof asking him to please get mine changed tonight or first thing in the morning and take the steps needed on his end to ensure I receive my diploma. GRRR..

On a lighter note I managed to find a cute top to wear with my black skirt to graduation. I'll look good, but I won't actually get my diploma!
