Petition Letter: My name is Shannon Townsend and I am in 3rd year Physical and Health Education and my student number is 10053999. For the first two weeks back I had been trying to get into the physics P20 course. Last week I registered in KNPE 355 because I couldn't get into any other classes and needed a 5th class. I registered after the KNPE 355 classes had happened that week so up to that date I had not attended a lecture in 355 yet. I registered in KNPE 355 because I wasn't able to get into any other courses that I was interested in, including PHYS P20. I was hesitant to take KNPE 355 because my room mate is also in this course, and due to issues I often get very anxious when taking a course with my room mate. I noticed on saturday there were spots available in the Phys P20 course. It was my first instinct to add PHYS P20 in to my schedule and all it said was that I couldn't because it was over my course load. I tried dropping 355 and adding Phys P20 but it then said I couldn't perform a transaction at that time. I am now stuck because I am unable to get into either course and am therefore only currently enrolled in a course load of four courses. I am very interested in taking PHYS P20 and for this reason I would like to send in this appeal.
