CALGARY- Following a horrific stabbing spree in Brentwood at a party celebrating the end of the school year at the University of Calgary, the school is making concessions for those scheduled to write final exams.
An e-mail was sent to student on Tuesday, saying the following:
In light of the tragedy that has impacted the University of Calgary family, three options are being provided for students who are not able to write during their originally scheduled exam time:
a) Use the regular deferral dates: Wednesday, May 14–Friday, May 16
b) Use the alternate exam period which will be Wednesday, April 30–Saturday, May 3
c) Use an extended deferral date, Monday, June 23–Wednesday, June 25
If none of the options mentioned above are applicable, students will be assisted on an individual basis.
The procedure to request an exam deferral has been simplified and will be coordinated through Enrolment Services. Enrolment Services will also provide extended hours on April 16–17 and from April 21–25, from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. to assist students with deferral requests and exam related questions (MacKimmie Block 117) or via email at examinfo@ucalgary.ca. Students may also call (403) 210-7625.
