Dumb planning on the university's part

I said this back when school started and found out fall break was this coming weekend, but the university should have looked into what football game was being played when they scheduled fall break. Before the season, GT was considered a really big game and even though it has lost some luster because of their loses it still is big! I will be there on Saturday, but Im sure the student section will not be full which is a shame for a game like this. Why not make fall break when we play away games at Miami or NC State?

Quietest I ever remember Death Valley was a fall break

weekend vs. Maryland- Noon start. I'm thinking it was either 2006 or 2008.
The noise level reminded me of an Orange-White game.

I doubt it. There will be a good crowd. Nearly all my friends that are still students will be there as will many others.

The AD at Clemson should advise Swofford and his minions that we do NOT want any ACC athletic contests
played in Clemson over fall break. I doubt he would listen but we darn sure should have made the request.

A) The Academic Calender is published almost two years in advance.

B) Scheduling classes around football games definitely shows that a university considers academics a priority.

Why is there a fall break? Did not have one when I was a student. Cut it out and get the semester over a week earlier. That way you have a longer Christmas break. Never understood the need for fall break.
