So I am currently siting in my classroom waiting for class to start and I am really dealing the pressure of school. I have come so far and the end is in sight but ever thing is just compounding and I don't feel like I can handle this anymore. Just a little background: I am in my senior year now and I have been continuously going to collage since fall 2007 and I really want to be done and move on with my life. 

Here's my advice:  Face the fact that you're on his time, his program, and he controls the situation.  If an assignment is due at X time, like 5:00 p, then you have to be done and have it in at 5:00 pm.  When you hit the workforce and take on real jobs, they don't work around your schedule, you work around their schedules.  This is some real life stuff you're learning right now so quit the complaining, shuffle your time around, and get some work done.

Try getting up earlier, going to bed earlier, and getting things done in the morning.  You can get an amazing amount of work completed before 10:00 am.  Again, the real world may operate different from what you want and that is just something you'll have to deal.

Lastly, you are being too harsh.  Let me point out why.

1.  You may disagree with the policy and the rules but the professor has clearly stated the policy and the rules.  He didn't change anything from the start of class.  Even if it is different from other classes, he has been consistent with how he's running the program.  

2.  If he uses the web system that doesn't allow assignments past 5:00 pm, that means he's not the only one to do it and it's well known how the system works.

Stop feeling sorry for yourself.  Take control of your life, make the adjustment, and get the work done.   You can do it.

warmaker : I recognize the fact that I have made mistakes. I just want the teacher to work with me in stead of making things so much harder than they have to be. While I do recognize that part of school is to prepare you for real life I feel that school is not the same. I am not on his time, he is on mine, I am the one who is paying the money and have an actual investment in the education. The teachers role is to provide me with the education that I pay for. The way that I feel right now is that this teacher dose not care about me at all he just wants things done his way and that is not the kind of person that I want to be my teacher. If I had any real choice in the matter I would not be in his class. But I can let him get in the way of moving forward with my life.

Sad but truth, you are the one going to college for a paid education. You need to follow the college's standards, rules , regulations, and as well as the professors' policies. Not every professor that you will meet, will take it all easy on you just because of your time and other affairs outside of me. I remember from last year, I had this bad professor that would make me dress up professionally for useless presentations and make my class do so much unnecessary work. She would also be very strict on attendance if one isn't in their seat at the exact starting time for class. I have online homework that has certain deadlines and if I miss it, I don't get points at all.

Your professor is trying his best to run his class in his own way that would work with everyone and keep the students on their toes. Remember that you are not the only college student and the world doesn't only revolve around you. If you are a serious student, you should at least try your best to manage your time or at least try to talk to him in person. Talking in person and talking through e-mail are two completely different worlds.

It's either you take responsibility of yourself and take better time management or watch your grade suffer. If you do not like the professor's standards and rules, then drop out of his class. There are other professors are much more nicer and lenient.

It all depends on you!  

ghostfishy : I have  begun to  take steps towards working things out with this teacher and I am hoping that things will turn out best in the end. In response to dropping the class, doing so would do more harm than good because that will push me back. Also I have no control over who my teacher will be my school only offers one section of each class a semester. The department dose not have enough staff to give students an option on the teacher for the class. The only way I would drop the class is if there was no longer any way for me to pass the class. I am not one to quit just because I have a rough time.

You will need to work things out with him then. Complaining and arguing won't get you anywhere if this is the case. You should work on his homework and stuff first since it is the one that requires an earlier deadline than the first as it is due online at a certain time.
