I've heard a number of universities particularly ones with medical centers are considering closing until the MERS situation has abated. If this happens it will delay final exams and screw up vacations for a lot of people. I've even heard some schools are considering online exams to replace in class ones.

Anybody hear anything?

Ive heard a lot of the regional/rural unis that have students from other parts of Korea have told the students NOT to go home (read back to Seoul gyeonggi do) until after the exams.

Unis will be open. MERS has been downgraded to not much more than a common cold, except for the really old and weak people. Not many 74 year olds attending uni classes.

Yeah, scr3w mers. They dont show next week or the week after? Dinged for attendance, and if they dont show for the final? Best of luck with that crappy mid-term you did x 2. Take it up with the school, ministry of edubecationalmals, or your mamma if you dont like it. I'm taking my vacation!

p.s. Nothing against most 74, or whatever, yr olds. But, "honorary" degrees, and especially a lot of the older students in Korea who expect an A just because they're older, are just bAlL-suCk degrees. No 1 deserves them. And, those that get them, def dont deserve a final score above those of their classmates unless they def deserve it. Easy AINT so easy, even if some other dUmba$$es on this board think so.
