Re: I feel this needs to be said...

I would definitely agree with this. My first year of college, I was skipping classes all the time to drive home to Rochester for meetings with 201. It got to the point where I was skipping all my Friday classes, and some of my Thursday ones to get a jumpstart on the weekend. For one of my classes (which met three times a week), I was going maybe once a week. By the end of the semester, I'd skipped more Friday classes than I'd gone to, and I was lucky to scrape out a C in the class (the only C I've ever gotten). So, the moral of the story to all of you, especially current and prospective college FIRSTers: go to class! You may think it doesn't matter, since your professors don't take attendance every day, but it can hurt you. School is more important than FIRST, bar none.
