This is a petition to change the date of the winter final for EC581. We need a unanimous vote on this one. Now, most of us are econ graduate students who obviously have the time conflict. Some are business students and other. I know that those who don't have a macroecon final the same day are likely to disregard this petition, but please give it some thought. You'd be greatly helping approx 35 students to survive. Right now, I have no idea how'd I'd approach studying for two graduate level courses approaching the same day. So please, we'd be ever so grateful. My understanding is that we cannot change it to March 15th or March 19th so it would have to be either the March 16th or 17th.
The administration has acknowledged the volume of this request and we are now coordinating a formal meeting with the department chair to discuss the scheduling conflict. I am currently drafting a letter that outlines the specific academic impact on the affected student group to present during that session.
