Dear Mr. Murphy,

I have reviewed your appeal to change the grades you received in ECON 212 and ECON 280 (F 2017) to Credit standing. After careful consideration of the documentation you submitted and the information supplied by the instructors about the circumstances surrounding these courses, I have decided to grant your appeal. However, in the future when you experience an event beyond your control that effects your coursework, you will be expected to drop courses by the end of week 8 and not retroactively ask to have your transcript altered.

Your grades in these courses will appear on your transcript as CR.

Sincerely,



Jill Atkinson, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Studies)
