    Default Late for school

    If you were 30 minutes late for an almost 3 hour class would you still go?

    I slept in by accident after I got off here and woke up 15 minutes ago. By the time I would have drove there, found parking and walked in would have been a minimum of 30 minutes late. I feel lazy now and guilty for now not going.

    Yes go on in. Usually in long blocks like that there is a 'break' or two in between. I'd just explain to my teacher what happened during break.

    I said yes. Once I decide to go to class, I go even if I'm late.

    I said depending on. It would depend on if I needed to go to the class (was having trouble) and if the professor was a dick about that sorta thing or not.

    I went in and learned stuff. I had to sit in the back of the class because there was no room in the front. I just listened most of the time and took notes from that because I can't see the powerpoint. I get my glasses on Tuesday.

    I'm like you Bellasera - I hate missing class. I've learned at the point in the game attendance counts for alot more than extra points at the end of the semester.

    I'm a stickler for attendance. You never know what you're going to miss! I would just go and then think up a plausible excuse and apologize to the prof during break.

    Been there, done that. I just go in, sit down as quietly as possible and start jotting down notes asap. During a break, I go up to the professor, apologize for being late, and ask what I missed during the first 30 minutes.

    You can choose to explain why you were late or not. If I overslept, I usually didn't even go there. If it was something serious, I would mention it.

    I'm glad things worked out, TM.

    You are paying for it. Divide the tuition by the total hours and see how much you threw away. There is also all the other material you may have missed for next class. The teacher may even have excused you absence if you had been forthcoming about being late, and made the extra effort to have all the class material.

    On the other hand, being lazy helps with stress, just don't do it all the time.

    There would be a lot of things that would effect my decision to go to class. For instance, if the class was based mostly on participation and attendance, then yes I would definately still go.

    Does the instructor post lecture notes and homework assignments online? Can you play catch-up on the material that was introduced? How comfortable are you with the subject matter (is it easy or hard?)?

    For a three hour class, I'd be loathe to miss even one day. Three hours is a lot of information to miss out on.

    You may be able to get a copy of the powerpoint from your instructor. He may have even posted on his webpage.

    Yes, I would have still made it to class, even if I was late (especially if it was a 3-hour class).

    If it's a 3 hour class, I'd go. I'd skip a shorter class, mostly out of fear of seeming rude.

    I would go as long as the class wasn't more than half over. For a 3 hour class, I would go half an hour late. But if it was an hour class? Not worth it. Glad you learned stuff though

    Actually I've showed up at a class almost before the very end of class to apologize and explain why I missed it and asked what information I missed and how to make it up.

    If you can make it, and want to make, it's better to go at any point in the class IMHO than to miss the whole thing....it shows you want to be there...just apologize and explain.

    That said, everybody needs personal time once in a while and I wouldn't feel bad at all about missing the occassional class.

    It would depend on the teacher and the course.
    If I knew important things were to be covered I'd probably go in to catch what I could

    I loved going to strip clubs; I actually made some friends there. Now things are different for the clubs and for me. As a result I am not as happy.

    Customers are not entitled to grope, disrespect, or rob strippers. This is their job, not their hobby, and they all need income. Clubs are not just some erotic show for guys to view while drinking.

    NOTE: anything I post here, outside of a direct quote, is my opinion only, which I am entitled to. Take it for what you estimate it is worth.
