Message: [QUOTE="rubymae4, post: 4516327, member: 1467"] Classes don’t meet every day. Most freshman classes follow a MWF or TTH schedule, so at most, she missed two days of instruction. The first day of class is usually going over the syllabus, course expectations, etc., which she would be able to get from meeting with the instructor or TA. While ideally students should be in class the first week, there are many reasons why they aren’t so instructors adapt for that. The biggest issues for Jana are 1) she just got here from Egypt, 2) she’s in a very different culture (as most international students are), and 3) she’s been home schooled. So, lots to adjust to as Carnac noted. As a side note, I’m glad she didn’t travel with the team. So much is new for her, and nobody else is going through the same newness with her. [/QUOTE]
