Could you help me with some advice? Pretty pleaseee
So I have this friend in my class in college and she is double majoring. Let's call her Meri. Long story short, she can't attend classes on two days from 8 to 10. She talked about it with the head of the department and got a note that allowed her to attend to class after 10 am. So far everything has been good but today we had a new lecturer and like always my friend came late and when the teacher asked, she tried to explain but the teacher didn't accept her explanation. He didn't even read her note and said he will deduct point from her (lots of points! Not even the amount that is normally deducted for being late!) And then he proceed to make fun of her the whole class saying stuff like "John explain the subject we covered today to Meri since she is sooo enthusiastic and is studying two majors and can't show up to class" or ask her to come up front and answer questions and obviously she wasn't prepared cause she had a test in her second major in the morning. Stuff like that
So now my friend is so super sad and she thinks everyone in class is mocking her. I don't know what to do? How can I help her cheer up? I tried to comfort her by telling her that what happened dosent matter but she doesn't accept what I say!
Then I thought about taking her out for lunch or something but as embarrassing as it is I don't have the money for it right now and she is super busy and always on a diet so that's out of the picture too. I'm so confused. What should I do?
