I'm 60 and back in school to get a Master's. Having a shit-ton of trouble - either I suffer with the woke curriculum and just go with the flow and get angrier, or I go off script with the truth and red-pill my peers and get eaten alive and told where I can shove my "opinions."
It's too late to withdraw and get back my tuition. Just looking for anyone else in the same situation... so, if you aren't in this situation - thanks so much for stopping by.
My partner and I are in a similar position. Pick your courses wisely. There is time to withdraw from a course at the beginning and one can scan the course materials. We withdrew from a communications course that was full off Social Justice stuff.
We also withdrew and re-enrolled in another semester, the same day, to avoid a rather silly administrator.
There should still be some good courses available to you, and once you get to the thesis, you won't have to be so subjected to the opinion of others.
Also, you can switch supervisors
Are you enrolled on-campus, or online?
Also what are you studying (If that is not too much to ask?)
All online - sucks too.
I'm in the Emergency Management Master's Program. I have other educational/career backgrounds in firefighting, 911 Dispatching, Nursing, and Paralegal. I wanted to go back to school to be prepared for "the new normal" and help others once they realize that they were a big part of the problems (knowingly or not)
Our discussion board this week was to pick a recent disaster and talk about how to help with recovery focusing on "green sustainability" and also how "Vulnerability Theory" plays into the equity of Disaster Recovery - to include feminism -- ugh!
So, I chose the 100 recent food processing/poultry plant disasters. I also dove into how the school isn't talking about anything at all - while we are here at the freaking precipice- - yada yada...
Two peers responded that I was a total waste of time, that I am not their teacher so I don't need to be trying to "help educate" and one student applauded me. Our woke professor told me that the disasters that I picked have no value in this class as they are "accidents." Whereas I had said they were not coincidences.
Wow, I'm sorry you are having to go through that - at least you know one student appreciates and agrees with you, I bet more do too but are too afraid to say anything.
I would try to take as much away as I could from those classes, get your money's worth and make that 'professor' work!
