I did try to transfer for personal reasons outside of accreditation. I was accepted to WVU's SOP, but ended up deciding to stay at UC. Sometimes things happen in life, and you have to deal with them, whether you're in school, working, whatever else is going on. How does this strengthen you argument at all? I mean, do you want me to post my acceptance letter? I don't understand, Mechanix...
Back onto the topic at hand though. My only point that I've been trying to make this whole time, is that academically, UC isn't lacking. You originally said you hardly knew enough to be a retail pharmacist. I mean, that really falls on your shoulders. I'm not trying to be a douche, but let's be honest, ultimately, you're responsible for your education. We have plenty of alumni going on and accomplishing things. Matt Carrico just got some APhA award. Aaron Beighl just won something. People who graduate from UC do just fine. You're probably out there working right now, doing just fine.
Quick question though, didn't someone in your class set up a rotation in Guam? At the Air Force base or something?
Anyway, after having gone to be a big school that was horrendous, I realized there's always BS to deal with, and people always want to complain. It's just annoying, especially with this forum and all the hype.
It's like the Fox News of the pharmacy world sometimes. Schools go in and out of probation, just do some research. UH Hilo was a laughing stock a few years, and look, Newpharm45 is applying there now... UCSD was on probation, now look, they're doing fine. It's all hype. People swear the sky is collapsing and the apocalypse is coming any day now. They want their vision of all these schools closing down so bad, that they sit here and just pray it'll happen. They see probation and think, "Well this is it! Judgement day has finally come!"
In regards to UC and their issues: I'm going to keep living my life and leave the business stuff to the administration. I have a feeling they're working their asses off to fix the issue considering their jobs, reputations, and valuable assets, in the form of a pharmacy school, are on the line...
I'm done trying. I've learned that if people want to complain, then they'll complain. Either way, good luck to you all with your endeavors! Maybe we can hang out some day, Mechanix, and catch a pizza at Pies and Pints. Try to cheer you up a bit
