My college professor told us on the first day of class that attendance was optional. The class is very simple so I decided no not attend the second day, at which they announced the class actually was attendance mandatory. I did not know this until over a month into missing classes. Now, the class ended early, and having a higher attendance score would push me from a B to an A. The professor refused to change the grade, should I escalate into a formal appeal or is there another process I should try first.
What a dick move! You were told it was optional, you shouldn’t be punished for believing what you were told in class by the professor. You should definitely appeal.
Unless you have evidence that was said, eg an email, you’re wasting your time appealing.
