Where did I say I never asked politely or asked what I would be learning from there? I get the feeling that you're being facetious while making wild accusations and assumptions, are you secretly my field coordinator?
Anyway, there are a lot of things involved w/ this site that I didn't disclose (for personal reasons) in the aforementioned topic that makes it extremely uncomfortable to work or learn there. I was nothing but respectful to everyone I communicated with and was constantly being railroaded, my questions were never answered correctly.
Finally, after receiving an E-mail from my field coordinator that was so incredibly rude that I actually was brought to tears I HAD to stand up for myself. Frankly, I really don't care if I put them off that's not the way to treat a new student.
Also, I missed the opportunity to apply to a world-class school because I was busy dealing with a terminally-ill grandmother who lives abroad amongst other things.
Is there anything else you would like to know?
