Petition Letter

Petition Letter: I tried to add History 270 (Contemporary China) during the proper registration period, but the course was complete. When I looked to add it earlier this week as a last-minute add, it had three spaces available. I tried to add it but was unable to do so. I went to the office in Gordon Hall and the Arts and Science office in Dunning and was told to file a petition to join the course. I emailed the instructor, Dr. Au Jik-hung, who stated the following:

Academic Plan

Academic Plan: As part of my academic plan, if I am allowed into the course, I will spend the weekend catching up on readings and learning what I have missed thus far. I am a strong self-directed learner and am confident I will catch up on what is required.
