Dear Ms. Paganin:

I have carefully considered your appeal to drop GEOL 106 (W 2018) past the academic deadline as well received Credit standing in BIOL 102, KNPE 153 (F 2017), SPAN112 (W 2018) and PSYC 100 (FW 2017-18). After reviewing your file I have decided the following:

1. I will drop GEOL 106 past the academic deadline as well as grant Credit standing in KNPE 153 (F 2017), SPAN112 (W 2018) and PSYC 100 (FW 2017-18).

Your grades in KNPE 153, SPAN 112 and PSYC 100 will appear on your transcript to CR.

2. I will deny your request to receive Credit standing in BIOL 102. The information provided by your instructor has confirmed that your low grade in that course is due to work which was not completed prior to you sustaining a concussion therefore there is no direct link to your concussion and this grade.

If you wish to appeal the Associate Dean€™s decision to the Board of Studies, you must submit an appeal to the Board of Studies within 21 days of the date this decision was sent. Guidelines for appealing to the Board of Studies and the appeal form can be found at: http://www.queensu.ca/artsci/students-at-queens/academic-appeals (click on €œBoard of Studies€) Do not use the on-line application for this process. You may contact Mr. Harry Smith, Office of the Ombudsman for advice on matters of procedure and on obtaining a representative. His office is located in room 421 Robert Sutherland Hall and he can be reached by phone (533-6495) or e-mail (ombuds@queensu.ca).

Sincerely,



Johanne Bénard, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Studies)
