Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT)

I have mixed feelings about my experience at RMIT most recently. Generally it's positive – mostly my course coordinators have been very helpful & happy to answer questions as well as supportive & providing interesting course material. My Program Manager has also been extremely supportive, encouraging & happy to assist. However there are clearly some VERY bad eggs. Despite my other course coordinators being very happy with me & saying as much eg 'pleasure to teach' etc, one course coordinator had a lot of difficulty answering questions and justified this as due to my behaviour as being adversarial, using this a reason to withhold results & feedback when I requested a review of marking. Unbelievably, I also received a phone call from the Dean of the area relating to that specific course, intimating that if I was to continue with the review of marking and appeal process which I had initiated, they would pursue me through the RMIT Student Charter for adversarial behaviour, despite the other course coordinators stating the complete opposite. I was so disturbed that I blocked her number. Can you believe it??? I certainly can't.
