I’m a freshman at a CC and I missed my first day of class. I went out an hour early and completely underestimated the traffic, so as a result, I was late. Being new to this school and everything, I was struck with immense fear, so I quickly drove back home. This is an utterly terrible start and impression. Will the professor have mercy on me if I email him what happened? Worst day ever.
relax.
leave for college an hr earlier next time, mention to the prof that you missed class yesterday due to car
trouble .
Shrimp, you’re not the first. Call the professor’s office and apologize. You can explain the circumstances, but don’t make it sound like an excuse. Basically, you want to let her know that you are still interested in the class and that you want to make up any work that you missed.
Email the professor an apology and ask them if there is anything you missed. Also apologize for inconveniencing them by asking for the missed material.
