I wasn't arrested for this, but I might as well have been. I go to a community college (that I don't want to mention) where a few teachers and staff members insulted me. I insulted them back and I almost got kicked out of school, twice.
The Dean of Students told me he's got a file an inch thick of my e-mails of "barage of insults" to other teachers and staff members. I didn't ask to see it. I was pretty well intimidated, even more when he told me that someone told him to kick me out.
As he was talking to me, i was thinking. I don't have anyone on my side. I'm being attacked without councel (can't afford councel anyway) and there is nothing I can do. I admit I am quick to defend myself, but what happened to free speech. It's not like I cussed them all out. (Well I did tell one teacher something she could physically do to herself) but that was only one thing, and I didn't even use the f word. I used &*^% and that was it.
Also, twice in one year staff members were fired, and left, and I never got relplies to my e-mails. I was quite upset and felt like I was uncared about. No one said, Well this person was fired, or this person is leaving and you can talk to this person now, and give me their contact information. They didn't care to do that.
They just left me hanging to wonder why I didn't get responses. Then when I told another person that I didn't get a response, they say, "Well how am I supposed to know that they didn't reply? They love to twist things around and make you feel stupid. They don't care to do that to me, but God help you if you defend yourself when you feel humilitated.
Another teacher told staff members that I was not taking notes in class (because my grade was low) well that was a lie. I sat in the front row writing down everything this professor said. It' s just stupid things like that, that really bother me.
I've been lied to and lied on by the staff. According to the Dean of Students, being an adult is part of finding things on my own, and dealing with others. The staff can do anything and they are not to blame.
Seems to me that they quickly labeled me with disorderly conduct on school property, when I was taking online classes. To make a long story short. I now hold my feelings in when a teacher insults me now, just so I can get through school. I'm close to graduation I don't want to get kicked out now.
