Petition Letter
Petition Letter: To Ms.Blake,
I am appealing to add the course SOCY 122 for this fall 2015 term. Three weeks into the school term I realized I would not be satisfied with the physical health and education program I am currently in. In hopes of changing my major to sociology for second year I would need to take SOCY 122 now to avoid falling a year behind. I am currently taking only 4 courses so the extra workload will not be too much to handle. I have decided to pursue my passion and for this reason I feel I will be successful in the course and program. Thank you for your time and consideration.
From, Joel

Academic Plan
Academic Plan: I intend to enrol in SOCY 122 in order to declare a sociology major for second year. I will be able to handle the workload of five courses as I will not be working a job or have any other large time commitments. Most importantly, I will be passionate about what I am learning which will translate into more focused work. I will still be taking the required PHE/KIN courses for first year. I have not had any trouble with these courses, just less interest in comparison to sociology. I feel this plan will allow me to explore my passion without discarding my Phys-Ed program that I may grow to like more. Going into second year I will have more options open and be able to make an informed decision on my chosen major.
