So, hypothetically if you were a professor...(rather angry right now)

[Godhumor]

And a student came up to you and said that his sister was getting married at the same time as the class' scheduled final a week from Saturday would you a) let the student take an alternate test on a different day, b) tell the student that it is not a valid reason for missing the final, or c) laugh at the student, tell him to go pick up a happy marriage greeting card and give it the sister with an explanation on the inside of how she picked the wrong day to get married, and then come to the test.

Yes, I'm pissed. Sometimes I really wonder why I quit my profession at the age of 31 to go back to school...

On edit: I am the student, and my professor picked option c, sorry if that wasn't clear.
