Petition Letter

Petition Letter: I believe I have sufficient reason not to be put on academic suspension, the past year has been full of many life changing events beginning with being in the middle of a pandemic, my uncle Greg passed, being sexually assaulted on campus, my best friend's father being killed and a week later my uncle Keith passed and finally getting covid and being bed ridden for two week followed by two months of long covid. my plan for the rest of university is to reduce my course load to ensure in the event more tragic life events occurs with the help of my family and friends i can still manage my workload unlike what we have seen. in. terms of the sexual assault i worked with barb Lotan for a few months but i don't have anything formal in terms of proof for obvious reasons. Lastly I have attached the link to both my uncles celebration of life notices which include the obituaries, along with the new article about my friend's father. please feel free to reach out if more information is required.

Academic Plan

Academic Plan: My plan is to speak with an academic advisor come fall to see if i should lower my honours to just BA so i can lower the requirments for the amount of classes needed. along with that i plan on taking 3 classes a term to allow me not to become overwhellemd in the case of more turbulance in my life. Along with that i plan to use more academic resources on camupus to ensure my work is of higher standard. lastly i will set up an academic plan with my professers if i find myself falling behind once again
