<p>On the academic calendar it says "Spring Semester Begins on Jan 13th," but "Instruction begins on Jan 20th."</p>

<p>So that means that the class actally starts on 20th?
Would that be okay then if I come back to school on the day before, i.e. 19th?</p>

<p>Thanks for your reply.</p>

<p>those bastards made the first day of classes the day of Obama's inauguration. Luckily I probably won't have classes during the event. (Tuesday schedule: Chem 3B 8-9:30 and Latin 2 1-2)</p>

<p>If your discussion session is before the first day of lecture do you skip the discussion or still go?</p>

<p>it can vary from class to class, but from my experience generally they don't hold discussion/lab. However, in spring 08 Chem 1A still had lab the first Tuesday.</p>

<p>So the best thing to do is show up and see?</p>
