Hello, I am doing my master’s dissertation. I have had repeated issues with my supervisor, such as being told incorrect information, forbidden from asking questions during meeting and threatened with negative reports. I posted more details about my experiences here previously to understand if I was overreacting and was advised that I should let a higher up know about what was happening.
I went to the student’s union and they advised me to contact the Dean of student experience, so I did, and the issue I raised was subsequently passed around faculties for a week or so because they couldn’t find someone to deal with it. I got an email yesterday from someone else asking for details on the situation, so I sent a detailed description of what had happened.
Today I was contacted by someone else to say that she had received the details of my concerns about my supervision and I can book a meeting to discuss the issue with her. Then later, I got an email from the faculty of student experience letting me know that this person will be my supervisor now as well as also dealing with the concerns I raised?
I’m just wondering if this is normal? I’m a bit uncomfortable with the idea of someone handling the issue I raised and being aware of the full details of my experience, and simultaneously also supervising me. Am I being unreasonable?
