Petition Letter
Petition Letter: For this course in particular, I saw that the outline was imbalanced and with it being a music course that I supposedly used my creativity, felt that my marks were downgraded. I happened to have issues with submission of a quiz that was still not resolved after contacting the IT. I realized the day of submitting my final exam (assignment based), I had the same issue. The exam itself was due at 2pm which the same day I was also getting my vaccine at 12:40pm that gave me unpleasant symptoms. I still tried my best to function and submit this final exam before 2pm but was not able to make the submission as with the submission not working. I then reached out to the professor asking if I can submit via email and if that would be allowed. I explained my situation about the vaccine too but it seems that the professor was not willing to understand me. Robb then directed me to academic consideration that was not helpful. I feel the fair way to approach this is to obtain a CR standing in this course. This can be followed by getting the final exam marked and at that point I would transition into the CR standing. With the understanding of how that day went and coming off acute anxiety symptoms, this has been a stagnant process for me when the professor chose not to understand.
