3. the professor isn't going to do anything about it
please do me, and you, and all the other diligent students of the world a small but significant favor?
go to the dean and present your case. or go to the chair of your spanish prof's department.
i was an honest student, even when shit got bad, and now i am a TA and i still see that shit going on and it incenses me. i'm sure i don't have to tell you how it feels to help a failing student for hours, and see that student get all teared up with joy over her passing grade of D, and know there are others in the class who have taken unfair advantages.
I have always been an honest student and never cheated. I worked hard, worked my ass off last semester to get a D in spanish (2010). Now I have to take Spanish 2020 and get a D to pass it to graduate. I got an F on my test. I will talk to the teacher once more, and give her one more chance, telling her how it disheartens me that I am failing, and that others are passing because they are cheating, and how it makes me want to give up. If she doesn't do something about it then, I will go to the chair of the department and complain because it is NOT fair that other students cheat. I don't know what else to do. I don't want to threaten my teacher. All I want to do is pass the fucking class so I can graduate. I spend more time on spanish than all my other classes combined, yet I swear i feel like i'm getting worse at it, not better. I feel stupid :( yet i know i'm not.
