So we have a project where we are given approximately two weeks to collect data and another week to do the report. 3 people in the group, only 2 need to collect the data. Both people in the group eagerly volunteered, so I was like okay cool. I sent them a reminder last week. This past week, I contact them. 1 member says they haven't started collecting. The other member says they are withdrawing from the class. So now I'm left with about a week and a half to collect the data AND do the lab report. This is going to limit the total amount of data that I can collect because of the time frame. I'm pretty pissed about it. I've reached out to the lab teaching assistant, but haven't heard back yet. If he isn't very helpful when he responds, how would you guys handle this situation? Should I escalate it to the lab coordinator?
I don't really know what they will do, but I don't feel like it would be fair for my grade to suffer for this.
