Dear Rachel Dickenson,

I was sorry to read of the passing of your grandfather. I am sure this has been difficult for you and your family to deal with and I will certainly grant your appeal to change the grade you received in ENGL 281 (F 2019) to Credit standing based on that circumstance and the information we have received from your instructor.

Your grade in this course will appear on your transcript as CR.

I do encourage you to reach out to our Student Wellness Services in Mitchell Hall if necessary as they can help support you during this difficult time.

With sincere sympathy,


Jenn Stephenson, Ph.D.
Associate Dean (Studies)
