The college I go to is one of the cheapest tuition-wise in my state, and most of the student body consists of middle-aged people who go there to continue their education (don't get me wrong, it's a great school with great professors; just not very expensive). I take night classes there and I was under the assumption that my school knew about all of these older students who have children/grandchildren, hence my thinking that there wouldn't be any classes the night of Halloween since it's really a very family oriented holiday. However, when I looked at my syllabus a moment ago, I realized that my professors have lessons planned for that night!
Honestly, I don't think that's very fair. Do the people at my school really think their students would rather sit in on a boring lecture than Trick-or-Treat with their children?!? I know there are sacrifices one has to make when it comes to continuing their education, but that's asking a little much IMO. What do you think?
