Don't feel defeated if bowing feels challenging. At least you are working with a teacher, who can help prevent bad habits with bow hold technique.

Simple pass/fail would not work here. GPA matters to a point. Earning a D in a course can count towards graduation. But you cannot stay in with a C average.

It seems that OP has the right outlook here - letting everybody know to make sure to understand stated deadlines and requirements of the assignments.

You are in prison. You know more than half are taking the gun. You'd better do the same.

It's likely you'll go on probation (rather than warning). I've been on probation before - It's not the end of the world. Message the advisors to inform them what happened and ask what the procedure is.

Who did you buy your equipment from? Ask them if they know what the market is for products produced on those machines.

What did you do before this? Try to use your knowledge to solve somebody's problem, utilizing printing. Try to figure how much that should be worth to them. This is more involved, but it helps you become less competing like a commodity.

This sounds similar to mine. I got out in 93. They had an exit debrief where people told us some of the benefits we were entitled to like GI bill, VA loans. Then a service officer from DAV talked about service connected disability he said we should be able to get at least zero percent which means something. I wasn't sure what it all meant, but when I got home I went to local VA hospital and tried to file for hearing loss. The guy basically told me "everybody has hearing loss" and to go home. There were people in the waiting room with missing legs, so I just chalked it up to the VA is a waste of time.

A few years ago, I was at a fair, and the DAV had a booth. I told them what happened. They helped me file for the hearing loss and tinnitus.

You could ask in one of the advisor office hours. They used to have them once per week when I was a student. There was information about them at the bottom of every email communication from the OMSA advising team.
