I had a friend who was flunked her clinical because her teachers said her wire-rimmed glasses were inappropriate for a *nurse.* This was a very long time ago.
I had a patient who endured three semesters of a nursing instructor who only gave decent grades to student who toadied to her.
And I could tell you unbelievable horror stories about graduate school in clinical psychology. In our courses in methods of psychotherapy, we were required to play the part of patients while the instructors demonstrated the way to do therapy, and it was expected that we would use real issues from out real lives. Then the instructors would take information they obtained and use it against us in student evaluations.
Hey, thank you for the wake up call. I have spent hours tonight working on the next chapter, and it is still not where I want it to be, but at least I am writing again and will keep it up especially since you are so unhappy and I want to make you happier.
But right now, it is so late and I so have to crash.
