That there was this magical way that you could know that a class was cancelled before going allllllllll the way over to the building in the cold. I have not had this happen to me in almost two years that I can at least remember. Don't get me wrong, I love when teachers cancel class. However, sometimes I wish i could have known about it before getting up early showering, getting ready and walking all the way to class just to find a little note on the door saying class is cancelled.
This is particularly annoying when you live all the way on the south quad and have to walk to Old Main in the north quad at 7:45 in the morning for math, yeah that happened, and my next class was not until 2. Today was different because I live in stevenson and i just walked to coleman...but i was still kind of mad because i could have still been in my bed right now because my next class is not till 11. I know some teachers may send out an email or a message on webct. But lets be honest, most teachers don't and most students don't have time to be checking stuff like that before class. I will say that I had a teacher that would send out a text when class was cancelled or just send a text about things we needed for class. At first I found this to be a little odd, but then it grew on me and I liked that it was that easy to communicate. Every time he would cancel class we would get a text. It was nice because when i wake up the first thing I look at is my phone and, once i read the text i went right back to what i was doing, which was probably sleeping. I guess there is no magic in texting but maybe more teachers should consider it.
