Class Dismissed

I really hate to miss class, but today was an exception.  I knew from this morning, it wasn't going to be a open toe, sandal day but I really didn't anticipate the change of weather.  Class was supposed to be released at 1:30 p.m. to give me ample time to scoot over to University of Guam (UOG) but the teacher didn't stop talking until 1:38 p.m.  Right as I stepped out the door, the rain was coming down in buckets, by the time I reached my vehicle, my shoes felt like I was wearing rainboots inside out.

In general, when I miss class, I lose a lot of information.  Although I can connect with some of my other classmates through phone chats and such, I don't like to ask them as it is quite bothersome when they are also trying to study or manage their time, plus the information is not complete as I would have when the Professor lectures.

This is a rule or best practice that I want to extend to my future students, that when class is missed, the teacher has to repeat the lesson and it will hinder the time of others that are ahead or on track.

Please feel free to share with me your ideas on what I could have done to prevent missing class.
