Dear Henry Ludlow,

I am sorry to have read of the passing of your brother and want to offer you my condolences. I can understand how this has impacted your ongoing health issues and recognize that you were unable to complete all of the work in your 2020 Fall term classes. I have reviewed your appeal to drop KNPE 473, FREN 106, GPHY 208 (Fall 2020), after the academic deadline and for Aegrotat Standing in KNPE 400 (Fall 2020) and I have decided to grant your request.

I have granted this appeal based on the severity of your extenuating circumstances and the information supplied by your health care providers. I wish you the best in your ongoing recovery and on your continued degree progression once you are able to return to your studies.

Your grades in KNPE 473, FREN 106, GPHY 208 will be replaced with a DR notation on your transcript.

Your instructor has submitted a replacement grade based on the work you have completed and your grade in KNPE 400 (Fall 2020) will appear as a grade of A+ along with the notation €œAegrotat: estimated grade€ on your transcript.

Note that any change in academic registration may impact government or private-firm student financial assistance eligibility and/or funding. Please consult with the Student Awards Office, Office of the University Registrar, Gordon Hall, to understand the potential implications of changes to course or program registration and/or the consequences of not successfully completing the required course load.


With sincere sympathy,

Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Academic)
