[quote=Anonymous]I went to SAIS and my European classmates were very “offended” that we didn’t have Good Friday off of school. I was a rep on one of the student bodies and more than a few complained to me. I patiently explained that it’s not a holiday in the United States and that’s how we roll. I explained that they would be excused from class for religious worship, all they had to do was let the professor know. The irony of course was that none of them were devoutly religious - they admitted that they did not go to church on Good Friday, they just expected to have it off as they do in Europe. I just rolled my eyes. [/quote]
