Dear Miriam:

I have carefully considered your appeal to receive an extension of your incomplete grade in BIOL 537 (FW 2020/21). After reviewing your file, which included strong support from your instructors, I have decided to grant your request.

You are permitted up to August 31, 2022 at the latest to complete this honours thesis course, but I understand that you have provided Professor Friesen with list of goals and timelines which you are meeting so far, so I am hopeful that you can complete the thesis by the end of April.

Yours sincerely,


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