I am an incoming transfer student. I notice on the calendar we got at orientation that there are some events on Monday and Tuesday, Sept. 24 and 25. Classes begin on Thursday the 27th. The events listed are: Welcome rally, convocation, new student celebration, writing placement exam, etc. I do not need to take any placement exams so I am wondering if I really need to attend any of the events on Monday through Wed? I planned a brief weekend getaway and will be out of town on Monday the 24th.
