[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was in college, we all lied to our parents about when we were done so we could go out one more night before going home. Are you sure your kids really want those tickets changed?[/quote] Thank you, yes! Most of us took that extra time to do stuff we wanted to do before we had to go home and deal with parents and family and that nonsense.[/quote] 1. Well, actually, my kid sat in an empty dorm that had closed the dining room while wishing he was back east with his beloved cousins. YMMV. 2. The point of the rant isnt whether a nineteen year old can amuse himself for a day or two, but about respect for those who have to plan early and commit resources. 3. The material from the cancelled classes has to be made up. Packing it in after thanksgiving may work for the kids more interested in parties than surviving freshman engineering weedout classes, but it doesn't work for all kids.[/quote]
