The University of Virginia’s decision to cancel classes from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesday reflects a compromise between the challenge to continue regular course schedules and to allow participation in today’s inauguration ceremonies. University of Virginia is not the only higher education institution facing these schedule challenges; some colleges and universities had to determine whether inauguration would affect exam schedules.
At Harvard University, for example, a revised schedule of exams will continue today despite some students’ protests.
Harvard sophomore Jason Shah created an online petition and Facebook group “Petition for Make-Ups of Harvard College Exams on Inauguration Day 2009.” The petition proposed to allow students to take exams Sunday before today’s inauguration or offer students the opportunity to do alternative projects instead of a traditional in-class exam, Shah said.
Although about 600 people signed the online petition and almost 300 joined the Facebook group, Shah said the efforts were ultimately unsuccessful because administrative officials did not allow the requested alternatives.
