A student-led petition advocating for an extended withdrawal date and the option for students to make their classes pass/fail this semester has been circulating among University of Louisville students. It has received over 3,000 signatures.
Jordan Stewart, a sophomore at U of L, created the petition after hearing multiple U of L students discuss the struggles of trying to navigate college in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Since the petition began to circulate, the university announced that it would push back the withdrawal date for classes to Nov.
