She was trying to convince her to stay, trying to make small talk. I can understand trying to calm someone down but if someone is intent on leaving you have no right to keep them there if they ask multiple times. Instructor was even telling her stuff like "well I guess you should quit your job too since you aren't going to finish this class" and bringing up other personal things that she's now worried this teacher is gonna go to our church (where my wife works) and start bad mouthing my wife to her boss. My wife had talked to her earlier before class letting her know she was withdrawing from it, but would stay for the certificate and she told my wife she wouldn't get the cert if she dropped the class so she decided to leave and then this all happened....
I'm pretty ticked off, very unprofessional! It's a good thing I work part time at my college in admissions, I know exactly who I will be bee lining to tomorrow morning.
