Yenta -“1, B”H (bli ayin hara) my nursing school has actually a) made its schedule to accommodate frum people and b) will give additional test days if it does not work to change it for the entire class.”
Fact is – the law requires accommodation.
“friends in other colleges have told me they go the prof and most of the time they will do make up days or ways to make up lost lectures”
The first part isn’t required by law -so they are very lucky. The second part is -they must provide all materials to all students on anything that they will be tested on, if the student had an excusable absence. Religion is a legitimate excuse.
