BU Students' Opinions on End of Strike
10/16/2008 at 6:00 AM
Personally, I'm not sure how to feel or where to go from this point. My opinion on BUFA's strike and the University's lock out is moot. What I'm really concerned about is how I'm going to make up the time missed. Someone else on the boards mentioned that by the 10th, we would've missed roughly 9 out of the 40 hours a class requires, and that's a lot. Some of us, me included, have missed early mid-terms and now only have a little while to prepare for the fast approaching others. Yes, I continued to study while away from school, but that fails to completely round out what we'd need a professor to provide via lecture. I know some people who are very seriously considering dropping first term, which would subsequently mean this entire year, and I'm on the fence. I'm interested to hear other students' plans, so please post!
