Petition Letter
Petition Letter: The purpose of this letter is to humbly ask for two courses I was enrolled in be stricken from my record: PHIL 111 and SOCY 122.
I could not complete the courses. I ditched my responsibilities half-way through because something far more pressing needed my attention. I can explain.
I was applying to the Pardee RAND Graduate School (several of my professors were aware of this and were updated periodically of my progress). In any case, I was made aware that young girls were committing suicide at an alarming rate. Apparently, Mark Zuckerberg??s apps were causing the anomaly. Rather than use the data his ai was providing him, he chose to do nothing about it. This aggravated me to a degree where I had to put my studies aside. I apologize and I did not mean any disrespect towards any of my professors who I truly believe are some of the best I have had the pleasure to learn from. Unfortnately, I cannot provide much more detail than that which I have provided here. I must maintain my professionalism as a quant. I hope you understand that a great deal of the research I was doing were matters of national security for a broad scope of stakeholders. I would have to undergo a debriefing with the Canadian National Defence team at CORA, National Security Council in Washington, Booz Allen Hamilton, or the RAND Corporation.
