Petition Letter: November 20, 2024
To whom it may concern,

I, Laura Burney, am requesting that the deadline for dropping courses be extended so that I can drop my fall 2024 courses without academic penalty. My mental health has been rapidly declining since near the end of October and I am now unable to participate in my academics and need this time to work with my counsellor towards getting myself back on track mentally for a positive start to next term. I had been struggling before this October with my mental health, but it only became completely unmanageable when I injured my shoulder in late October, which added a physical barrier to completing schoolwork and daily living and therefore more intense emotional stress, resulting in me being physically and mentally unable to participate in academics.

Thank you for your support and understanding,
Laura Burney
