My kid has chosen to spend every Thanksgiving on campus. His school doesn’t have a long break and the airports are misery. So he prefers to stay around and enjoy the city (NY), doing all the things he loves to do without any of the pressure of also doing homework. There are always other students “stuck” on campus. They often all go out together. I remember his freshman year a big group all went out for Indian food. I know students also do Friendsgivings. We always talk on the phone a few times over the weekend, and I send him a picture of the spread, and tell him the dishes that did and did not turn out. It’s fun.
