I, Mr. Ramuel Mendoza Raagas, of student number CAL 1992-79204,
do hereby request from your esteemed office an extension of Maximum Residency Requirement so as to accomodate the implementation of a new system-wide community service requirement to replace the Military Science subjects required of male students such as myself.
Just this past semester, I had requested for an extension only until the past month and its inscribing semester. I had assumed that I would pass at least three of the four P.E. subjects I took then, and that these, together with the Skin Diving class that I had passed a year ago, would suffice to make me meet the four-subject requirement for P.E. classes passed as an undergraduate student of our university.
It so turned out that I have only passed two of the four P.E. subjects that I had just taken this past semester. The other two are registered with marks of "INComplete." To complete these subjects, I need to stay registered as a student until my date of completing them. I therefore kindly request your approval of an renewed extension of my maximum residency requirement until October of the year 2002, the deadline for my completing at least either of the two incomplete marks I have just incurred for P.E. subjects.
In the process of completion, I may also enroll in at least one fresh new Physical Education sport, so as to expand my options for fulfilling my final PE subject requirement. I may also take the integrated Spanish 3-20 Foreign Language Class offered this semester so as to settle to the letter the provision in my course curriculum that calls for all of a student's twelve (12) foreign language electives units to fall under a single language, which in my case would be Spanish. To date, I have been holding twenty (21) foreign language units, distributed across four (4) different language, three (3) of them carrying six (6) focused units each. Mrs. Casipit of AS 101 administrative office and College of Arts Associate Dean Jose Wendell Capili have advised me that these in themselves already stand in a negotiable position for graduation. I am also composing a letter to my department chairperson, Dr. Jose Yap Dalisay, Jr., requesting such an accomodation.
Last semester, our University Registrar Ludendorffo Decenteceo, recommended that
