Academic Grievances

Greetings to you all!

I hope you've all had the chance to enjoy the lovely sunshine we've had (and the rain)! It kinda sucks to be stuck inside all day when it's lovely out but, oh well.  So, I attended my very first Pow Wow ever last Wednesday.  Wow, was it ever exciting!  Having grown up in an African country that's lost its culture, it was very encouraging to see the proud Aboriginal people displaying who they are.  I loved it.  A huge congratulations to all those graduates!
 
Well, the Academic Grievances continue to pile in.  I've had my head buried in academic policies, over the past couple of weeks, seeking solutions.  I'm loving it!  If you have any questions concerning your academic courses/grades, feel free to contact me anytime. If you are dissatisfied with an assessment, we encourage you to seek an informal resolution with your professor as soon as the concern arises.  If you are still not satisfied with the outcome, you can contact us and we'd be happy to advocate on your behalf.  We can either advise you in the process of your informal resolution, or speak to your instructor/department head on your behalf.  In addition, we can also walk through formal appeals with you.  Oh, and by the way, by ‘we,’ I mean the Confidential Student Support Officer and I. Come visit us!
 
Have a good one!
