<p>Is deadweek is the same as a regular week with classes but just no tests or projects, or do they have the whole week off from classes? I'm trying to determine if flying back Monday morning is reasonable. It's hard to get a good fare on those Sunday after Thanksgiving flights!</p>
<p>There are classes during “dead week.” Teachers are not supposed to give any major tests or assignments (unless it is a paper or something that will count as their final exam). It’s not strictly enforced, so some teachers still choose to do so. It’s not a good idea to miss class, as these are often the final days of information that will be on the final as well as review days.</p>
