Back from meeting with my professor. Besides saying what a good sport I've been, and fearless about diving into different territories than the others, she also said she's really impressed with the research I've done and the insights I've uncovered. She asked if I'd been working as a researcher during my break from school.
So yeah, the aggravation is totally worth it. Plus she said I'm getting an "A", which I really think is important for me for this particular class.
The next project, she is having me do the research on a semi-related tribe instead of my own tribe. She said the other option she considered was to have me do completely different research, but she didn't want me veering too far off the path that everyone else is on. I'm actually kind of disappointed that I'm leaving my tribe for now. :-( And I hope she takes my handicap into account when grading the next paper--I don't have a month of research into this other tribe to draw from.
