Winter Break Dates?

<p>I’m trying to book flights right now for winter break, but I’m a bit confused on the dates. </p>

<p>So what I’ve heard is that you leave school after your last final, which will be in the weeks immediately before Christmas, but when do we have to come back to campus? </p>

<p>The academic calendar doesn’t show for January 06, but for 05 it listed the 26th as the day that Semester 2 actually began, with a week of registration preceding it. Is it super important to go to the registration (eg, are classes filled on a first-come-first-serve basis) or can you show up at 4 pm the day before classes start and still be ok?</p>

<p>I think dorms open back up on the 21st of January if I am not mistaken.</p>

<p>Do we have to be back on campus by then? </p>

<p>I'm looking for the absolute latest date that I can come back to school.</p>

<p>Jeez, staying away as long as you can before even getting there? Well, I have classes as starting back up January 25.</p>

<p>Oh, I'm sorry; my comment sounded much worse than I meant it to =) In truth I am very excited about going to school, and I'm sure that I will love it there- I loved all the students and profs that I met when I visited, and I'm sure it will be a wonderful experience that I'll hate to leave. </p>

<p>The reason why I'm asking is that I'm using the second half of winter break to visit one of my friends in France. Since I so rarely get the chance to travel like this (my parents are paying for the ticket as a birthday gift, normally I have to buy my own flights and I don't have much money) and the two of us are really close I wanted to stay with her as long as possible. </p>

<p>I like Brown, really I do. =)</p>

<p>I know I was just ****ing with you.</p>
