Petition Letter
Associate Dean, Arts & Science,
I am appealing the deadline to add ECON 111 (2014 Fall) and drop ECON 110 (2014 Fall/Winter).
Due to extenuating circumstances beyond my control, I will not be able to attend the majority of my Econ 110 classes which are held three times a week. I am the starting goaltender for the Kingston Frontenacs OHL team. My intense practice and game schedule does not physically allow me to attend classes three times a week. I am frequently not in Kingston during the scheduled classes as I am travelling with my team making it impossible to continue in Econ 110. I have maintained a respectable grade in Econ 110 however not being able to attend class would have a direct negative impact on my academic performance especially during the second half of the course when my hockey commitment increases.
