Global Warming Documentary

[Hdesign]

Gee, why am I not surprised.

It's funny, I had a design project dealing with climate/environment and human impact upon it back in college. Our task was to raise awareness of global warming through an innovative mailer. All 15 of my classmates followed along (like sheep) with the suggestions made by our 2 professors who critiqued our work regularly. They, of course, supported Al Gore's opinion. For some reason, open critiques of my project always erupted into a major political and philosophical discussion because I chose to research both sides of the issue and I happen to subscribe to the opposing view.

Anyway, so it came time to present the final design. I was 1 of 4 that actually had something to pass in. The presentation went very smoothly and I received compliments on the overall design by a few classmates. The final grades were posted outside the head professor's office a week later. I received the same grade (C) as the students who didn't pass their work in on time while the other 3 ranged between A-and B. I confronted the teacher about it, to which he simply replied that "You didn't follow the instructions." I wish I could have thought of something clever to say at that moment, but I was raised to respect my elders.

It's tough to be the black sheep.
