So, I survived today at school sick. I think the anger at profs. with unreasonable/unbendable attendance policies is what gave me the energy that I needed. I fully realize that the majority of the children in college now blow off as many classes as possible but I think exceptions should be made for those of us real adults. It is not fair to make someone who is clearly sick sit through a class just to make sure they do not get a grade reduction. It is also patently unfair to expect a mother to choose between passing a class and taking care of a sick child. Its not like I am doing poorly in school. I have a solid B average.
For the record, not all of the profs at the university are like this. Many are willing to bend a bit. The few that are not give the rest a bad name.
