I need to leave GenCon any time after the Vintage Championships.  School starts on the 23rd :\.  Is anyone going to be leaving on Sunday morning that is going near Binghamton?

The first days are by far the most important, is the problem. You have to get the syllabus and the first class meeting to get a sense of how much work you'll have to do for the rest of the term.

You see... this is why I was such a poor student.... to me the first days were the BEST ones to skip, because all they did was pass out the syllabus and go over the course in general....

I always hit the first day just so I would have the course overview and syllabus so I would know what days to skip in the future

The only thing you shouldn’t skip is your finals

No room in the house exceeds a length of twenty-five feet, let alone fifty feet, let alone fifty-six and a half feet, and yet Chad and Daisy's voices are echoing, each call responding with an entirely separate answer. In the living room, Navidson discovers the echoes emanating from a dark, doorless hallway which has appeared out of nowhere in the west wall.

Thats the genius of it though, they hand out the syllabus on the 2nd day of class as well, because of the add/drop period...   and because of the add/drop they really dont cover a lot on the first day.  its perfect! perfect I tell you!

*note: This plan is not perfect, and is highly unrecommended for anyone actually attempting to do well in college

I don't know about other schools but at Williams if you miss the first day the Prof can just drop you from the class if they feel like it.  Even if you Preregistered like 4 months in advance.
