Please relize that the 32 signatures are ALL of the students in computer apps. We petition that students are allowed to listen to music in computer apps. This will allow us to focus better in class while we work hard and not to interact with other students or distract them. The teacher would be able to get grading done while we work quietly while listening to music. As said by the university of Illinois this can reduce stress hormone levels by as much as 41%. Please take this into consideration, thank you for your time.
