I know, but it would really be nice if our professors gave us some sort of extension for our assignments. Last minute or not, today is still a valid day for us to work on our assignments.

yeah, well it depends on your prof....

whenever this happened with ELM being down last year they usually gave some sort of extension if it was down for a significant period of time (like avenue has been now)

ie. For psych quizzes they extended the deadline

What's your thought on this ? Do you think Mcmaster is at fault ?

It's hard to answer that question... in terms of it happening; no Mac isn't at fault in my opinion.There's only so much you can do with technology, and I'm just happy that Avenue has worked much better than ELM did last year...
we had this problem with ELM about twice a week at least at some points in the semester... so its significatly bette this year...


in terms of making up time for people who were trying to access quizzes; then I think the deadlines should be pushed back by the amount of time avenue is down... but they would never do this for midterms...and it would usually be left up to the prof to make that decision; and lots of profs have the mentality that you shouldnt have left it to the last minute...
