Decision Letter

Appeal Number: 9737
Decision Date: December 13, 2022
Associate Dean: Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Student Name: Leila Tibouti
Student Email: 17lt19@queensu.ca

Dear Leila:

I have carefully re-considered your request to Waive the 21-day appeal deadline related to petitioning after you graduated in May 2022, and have decided, based on the circumstances you refer to in your petition letter, to waive the timeline.

I have also reviewed your request to Extend your Incomplete grade in IDIS 373 (W 2022) and drop WRIT 125 (W 2022) late, and have decided the following:

1) To grant your petition to drop WRIT 125 late based on the circumstances outlined.

2) To deny your request to extend your Incomplete grade in IDIS 373. A student cannot complete a course after graduation. I can see that you thought there was an active Incomplete grade during the summer term, and that you thought you were allowed to submit late work, but that would have only been possible had you not graduated. I am however willing to drop that course after the drop deadline. If you wish to accept this offer, please email asc.appeals@queensu.ca within 15 business days and the late drop of IDIS 373 (W 2022) will be processed.

If you wish to appeal the Associate Dean??s decision to the Board of Studies, information and deadlines can be found at www.queensu.ca/artsci/students-at-queens/academic-appeals (click on ??Board of Studies?). You may contact the Office of the University Ombudsperson for information about student rights and responsibilities https://www.queensu.ca/ombuds/appeal-process/procedural-fairness and guidance on policy and procedure by visiting their website at https://www.queensu.ca/ombuds/.

Student Academic Appeals Policy (SAAP) https://www.queensu.ca/secretariat/policies/senate/student-academic-appeals-policyE and Rules of Procedure for USAB https://www.queensu.ca/secretariat/policies/senate/student-academic-appeals-policy/usab-rules-of-procedure are Queen??s university Senate approved appeal policies. In the event that an inconsistency arises between these policies and Arts & Science regulations, SAAP and USAB will supersede.

Best of luck in your current graduate program.

Sincerely,


Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
