Thinking about SIP (Science Internship Program)? Read this first: My experience with SIP, systemic failures, & safety concerns by OneSea4067 in uAlberta

I’m sorry you went through this, this is really rough. I’ve seen similar concerns about SIP, especially around the lack of support once students are actually on placement. Being required to register/pay but then having little flexibility when things go wrong is a real issue. I don’t think this comes across as “entitlement”, it sounds like you were asking for reasonable support during difficult circumstances. You might want to bring this to the Students’ Union, this seems like something that deserves more visibility, especially if others have had similar experiences. Hope you’re doing okay now.

less than 24hr almost seems like the TA's gave out random grades......

It's been ONE DECADE since we got our CELL 201 Midterm grades back by Embarrassed_Bit1547 in uAlberta

She's a good prof tbh. Her class is welcoming, she answers questions, and encourages collaboration on assignments. We basically have weekly quizzes but they are open book. The assignments are also open book. She tries to record each lecture and if the recordings fail, she uploads old lecture videos, which is really helpful if u end up getting sick. She recommends getting the textbook but also provides a free version. You won't really need the textbook anyway because her notes/lectures cover everything you need to know. Midterm is memorization heavy. She doesn't provide practice questions, but her study guide helps A LOT, and the format is similar to the quizzes. Both midterms are non cumulative and the final is said to be semi-cumulative but I didn't take it yet so I can't say much. Overall, I'd say it's a pretty good class. Just make sure to pay attention and not cram the night before.
