<p>I'm planning a visit sometime around Thanksgiving but I want to be there when the school is open and their are students, so when is the day when students start leaving for Thanksgiving?</p>
<p>The last day of classes is the Wednesday before thanksgiving, but a lot of students leave that day and many classes (especially afternoon ones, and including mine) get canceled. So I would definitely recommend a Monday or Tuesday visit. Albeit, some students will even start leaving this weekend if it works for their schedule.</p>
