I realize this isn't a college self-help sub, and I will be speaking to others about this, but I wanted to reach a couple more people that would, hopefully, have some insight on how to deal with this.
I am currently taking a Cultural Anthropology class. The past two classes were entirely devoted to the idea that gender and sexuality are two separate things. This being a very unspecific subreddit, I'm sure some of you hold similar views, but I believe they are the same thing.
Today, on the pop quiz, the first question was a true/false stating they were indeed separate things. Knowing it was the one the teacher disagreed with, I chose false. After class, I asked the professor directly whether or not it would count against my grade considering it is my religious belief. She said it would because it was "wrong according to the textbook" and what she teaches, etc., though I could see she was on the verge of simply stating it was wrong.
I didn't push it much with her and ended the conversation with, "I see" but am wondering if there is anyone in administration that, despite their own views on it, might be able to support my religious standing and keep it from counting against me.
Obviously I can deal with one question wrong, though I don't think it's right. In the case, however, that it could mean the difference between a letter grade, I'd like to be able to fight it.
Any advice?
