Petition Letter
Petition Letter: Dear Appeal committee,
After emailing professor matrix back and forth, I have come to the decision that I would like to appeal my grade for assignment 1 of the class.
In the assignment instructions, it states that I was required to make two graphic deliverables. It never stated that I needed to do two ¿¿different¿ types of deliverables as she keeps stating to me.
I had submitted 2 deliverables for 2 different topics, both of which included course content. I had taken her enin100 class previously and I thought I had a good understanding of her requirements.
I expressed to her that as a student reading the instructions is crucial and I thought I had done that well. I also stated that I believe the instructions were poorly written and she didn¿¿t state directly that she wanted two DIFFERENT types of deliverables.
She keeps saying I¿¿m mistaken.
I would understand and accept my grade if I had read the instructions wrong, however I believe that they were not forward enough.
Thank you for considering my application.
