Happy hour starts at 3:30, I think, and it's usually packed out by 4:30. I'll check into that and the E&C to see if we can reserve a table and update later today or tomorrow.Another Damned Medievalisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05231085915472400163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3671815.post-1104598384398556932005-01-01T11:53:00.000-05:002005-01-01T11:53:00.000-05:00As a landlocked Midwesterner, I would vote for McC...As a landlocked Midwesterner, I would vote for McCormick Fish House; maybe try to go during their happy hour to accomodate everyone's budget??? <br /><br />Can do Friday 5:30 or after or Saturday early (prior to 7). <br /><br />BTW emphathize with you on student dilemma - I imagine the school calendar was set years before the student's "previous commitment". Not sure how to curb the trend of life being at the student's convenience since it's not longer unusual that they're used to being catered to prior to arriving on our doorstep . . . .

Our...I'd love to, but I was serious about the FTE. Our budgeting is such that we have to keep our fingers crossed that the drops happen after the 10th day, or we lose money. It totally sucks, because morally and ethically, I do feel obligated to let students know when I think they're out of their depth, but there's huge pressure to keep them in so we don't get program cuts.<br /><br />Also, since I've been teaching at CCs, I've learned that prior engagements are sometimes total bullshit but are also sometimes euphemisms for "in jail," "in mandatory rehab so I don't go to jail," "can't get time off work because my boss is an asshole but I need the job," etc. It's not too normal where I am now (pretty upper-middle-class kids too immature to go to the U), but I've seen it.Another Damned Medievalisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05231085915472400163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3671815.post-1104511720389522902004-12-31T11:48:00.000-05:002004-12-31T11:48:00.000-05:00Yay! about the survey course.
