Dr. Keel is the head of advising dept. and he's *very* responsive to students who seek his help. If he cannot help, guaranteed, he will get this onto the desk of someone who can.
Good luck - don't let anyone push you!

I will not hesitate to contact Dr. Keel. He has helped me in the past, and is on our TESC forum...he is usually happy to help. The advisor who "downgraded" the class is new. I don't know if that matters or not- but I sent her a very polite email asking her to look into it. It may not even require much more than that. We'll see.
