A Brief Note on Attendance

I don't know rightly who to blame. The professor who drops you a letter grade when you miss more than two classes, or the student who insists, just in case he has to miss those two days for some other reason, on coming to class when it sounds like I'll have to poke a hole in his throat for all the phlegm to escape so that he doesn't hack every thirty seconds.

I mean, really. I stayed out of class when I was like that. I'm cool with sniffles. Occasional restrained coughs. But when you're a distraction by your wheezing, coughing, and hacking, please. Please. Please. I'll give you my notes. Just stay home. We don't need any of that.
