Petition Letter
Petition Letter: Dear Dr. Chris Ward, Associate Director (Studies),
I hope you are doing well I am appealing to drop ANAT 100 this term. Over the past couple of weeks I have been dealing with issues surrounding my previous mental disorder that I was diagnosed and hospitalized with in 2021. My disorder is again beginning to impact my life and has put me through a tough couple of weeks. I am a student who strives for academic success and works extremely hard for my school as it is significantly important to me. As a University student we are extremely busy dealing with all our course load to begin with, and with my current circumstances I have been struggling more with my school work. I really do not want this to impact me, and I believe taking ANAT 100 off of my term will help as I can focus mainly on my other courses, meanwhile still being able to take time for myself to deal with what is going on right now. I have spoken with my parents and we are reaching out to my doctor to get in contact with a therapist. As I am aware I will still have to obtain this credit, I have made a future academic plan for myself. This summer I have enrolled in BCHM 270, and this will therefore free up a spot in my fall/winter term where I plan on taking ANAT 100.
Thank you,
Sarah Duncan
