Still haven't got a schedule for my master thesis defense after 2 months. The normal deadline is 1 month.
My professor is ignoring my follow up emails, even after the head of the program urging him to finish the review.
I feel discriminated as this didn't happen to other students that worked under him before.
I am job searching now, what if a job offer came but I still couldn't get a graduation certificate because of my delayed defense.
Will the university willing to compensate for the time loss not being able to work?
Maybe I should start finding out how to hire a lawyer in case I have to sue the uni.
😡

I once had a lecturer/HOD/part advisor that treated me this way because I was from a different tribe, it was obvious from my name and after begging for a semester leave to put my life in order he refused, so I decided to leave the school altogether,

taking actions in my case, would burn me because of the fucked up system in Nigeria, unless my parents were some big time donors or politicians then maybe I would be heard, it is what it is

Felt that.
When I was at an university we had to deal with the same type of professors you had.

I had surely fun with my master thesis in 2020 year.
Covid lockdown started in the February in my country, I got lazy and skipped everything right for 5 months until June.

3 weeks were remaining until defense, when I received an email I'll be kicked out of university tomorrow, and a question from my professor if I am going for defense.

I got persuaded by mom, that I should. Cleaned gathered for 5 months educational obligations in 4 days. Made all master thesis practicing preparations, data and.e.t.c. within two weeks, and in less than 3 days wrote all documentation. I was able to get an allowance to defend myself and received an 86 out of 100 score.

This way quite a crazy time. Work, Eat, Sleep, Repeat.
Huh. Well, now I have it every day with a full-time job.
