Appeal Letter
Appeal Letter: As you have indicated and at this time, I would like to pursue my request to have an Incomplete grade in the Cold War (HIST 211) course, though I am not sure how to proceed. My completion of the courses from my Summer 2021 term was a contigency for the approval of Dr. Atkinson, however the work that I submitted for the Introduction to International Security (POLS 263) course was not being accepted by the professor for the reason that he no longer maintains a record of it, and therefore was unable to advise that an Incomplete grade was a suitable option. This is something that I am seeking to resolve, though I understand that this conflicts with our original argreement. As well, as it was made clear that this condition upon my Summer 2021 term was put in place to determine whether I am fit to finish the requirements of the Cold War (HIST 211) course, I completed the final examination in advance with the permission of Professor Trofimov, thereby leaving only an official submission for me to complete should Dr. Atkinson grant the approval of my appeal to the Associate Dean level. Professor Trofimov has been incredibly supportive and offered his continued support of my request for an Incomplete grade. I would be interested in completing the course under the consideration of the circumstances that I outlined in this email.
I understand and empathize that the length of this appeal process may be frustrating to you and your team, as I have shared in this experience too, though I have tried my best to manage this among my other responsibilities without comprimising my need to advocate for myself through this channel. Although I would prefer a discussion about the constraints that I have outlined, in the event that this appeal is directed to the Board of Studies, please consider this as my appeal letter. Please let me know it would be possible to move forward.
The completion of the courses that would be necessary to grant an Incomplete Grade for HIST 211 is available for consideration. Pamela Briand will be contacted within the coming days with the necessary information. Thank you in advance for your time.
