My Friend Needs Some College Advice

Hey everyone I am looking for advice for an issue my friend is having at college.

He has a Comp teacher who is a complete a-hole and when he seeks help he keeps referring him to our keys for writers book instead of addressing his issues.

He isn't a traditional student he just turned 30 on Thursday and isn't knowledgeable with MLA and the best at writing papers. His teacher says he is a top 3 student when it comes to grades and how he is in the class. This is a community college that he is using the GI Bill for.

To add to that, he hasn't been feeling well this semester because he has been waiting to get his wisdom teeth out. He had a confirmed date for surgery set back in May for Nov 9th. The VA in Chicago called a few weeks ago after all this time and said he got bumped because he wasn't a priority. Anyways, he gave up hope, but started feeling very sick. He went to the VA clinic on his birthday and got antibiotics. He felt even worse on Friday so he drove to the actual VA hospital and they said that he need surgery immediately. They don't have a surgeon so they called private surgeons and He has a date on Monday. The paper is due Tuesday. He has 6/8 pages done, but he feels bad when he sits at the computer.

He contacted the division chair and she said she doesn't even accept late work with doctors notes. He asked if there is any medical hardship that he could drop the class without punishment and she said no. It honestly seems like the humanities department gives no cares and said he should know this. However, he has taken Eng 007 and Comp I and never learned. When he mentioned this to the chair she said that I should know it anyway.

Honestly my friend Andrew bust his arse and he feels pretty demotivated because of this. Any suggestions?

Also sry if my txt is bad I'm typing this while on my phone in bed. Just stressing bad.

Andrew, On the first day of the term, I gave the class my office hours for the semester. On Fridays, I shared that day, I'm normally there between 8:00-9:00 a.m. However, tomorrow I'm at ________________ for a one-day conference. I'll be here all next week, specifically in the office, on the days and times I have scheduled office hours. If you don't have those written down in the course's booklet, you can find my office hours--and those of all full-time faculty members--by visiting the following link:
