<p>I’m sure you visited this site to find out about the appeals process in SOIC. <a href=“Indiana University Bloomington”>Indiana University Bloomington;
<p>I think you are approaching it incorrectly in asking the professor for an explanation without giving him/her a detailed explanation as to why you deserve a higher grade. Tell him everything you did and why you think that warrants a better grade. I also would not recommend you “compare” your project to others as the reason. I wouldn’t mention the whole “it’s not fair–they did a website” thing. I also would not mention the “your Asian” thing. Excuses won’t work. Focus on what you did do.</p>
<p>Send this email as a follow-up. If you don’t hear from the prof in a week, go to the next level as mentioned in the above link.</p>
<p>My D is an SOIC grad. I don’t recall if there is more than one professor assigned to Capstone projects? I do recall a few “team” issues near the end of the project, but they did well. </p>
