My University offers relatively few math classes in the summer - and no upper level/math electives. I have been advised by a professor that if a petition for a class was created, there *might* be a chance of that class being offered during the summer.
I talked to the next person of interest in the math department who confirmed this, but said that mostly the lack of offerings has to do with budget. However he did note that it's worth a try. If enough people are interested the university might open a class. (Finding professors to teach it is not a problem - they would all love to do something other than pre-calc/calc during the summer).
Has anybody ever done anything like this? I'm wondering if there is a standard format for such a petition.
