Hi,
These are great suggestions (the ones from Jim, Ashley and others)  
worth considering. I'd leave any threatening or hostility as
a very very last resort. You don't want to burn bridges unnecessarily,  
but definitely take these to heart Rania and anyone else who is  
considering looking into this. Rather than focussing on how the  
suggestions given on this topic won't work, try to find the positives.
Sarah
P.S.: Sorry Jim for the repeat message - I was hoping to send this one  
to the list and not you alon.

>> Hi Jim,

>> Your suggestions are good.  But some are not practical for some

>> As to getting student and public support I agree.  There is no   
>> reason a class should end as late as 10:30.  I've not heard of that  
>>  before.  I bet professors hate teaching that late.  Students often

>> I'm sure a driver will be found.  Advertising in the paper should
