Is Volunteer Day mandatory?

<p>Just wondering. I would love to go out and help but I'm afraid I might be out of town then.</p>

<p>Are you a freshman/transfer student?</p>

<p>what happens if all of a sudden i get sick that day, gnome saiyen?</p>

<p>Do whatever you want. They can’t mess with your grades, and they can’t kick you out of housing. If they try and say it’s mandatory and that you’ll face some kind of punishment either say you’re sick (they can’t risk liability of making you work if you say you don’t feel well), find an older student’s room to hide out in, or say you’ll go to the media and reveal that volunteer day isn’t really voluntary at all. With all the PR they’re getting from this event, that should shut them up.</p>

<p>Your RA is going to knock on your door and try as hard as possible to get you to go and throw as many reasons why you should go out as possible but you really don’t have to go, and if you are not in your room then they it’s not like they can do anything</p>

<p>i’m not living on campus.</p>

<p>its completely optional.
It’ll give you a good opportunity to meet people though. its wayyy harder to meet people in the apartments.</p>

<p>Well then you have nothing to worry about. If you are not in town, then you are not in town no big deal</p>
