Columbus day weekend

It's a 4 day weekend here! (Monday and Tuesday holiday - most other schools only have monday off I believe).

Many professors here don't respond if you call them "Professor". They simply aren't used to it. I'm not really used to calling them by their first name, as everyone else here does.

As my freshman advisor (and he's a rather famous person) says:

"Rule number one: Call me [first name omitted], not professor."

"Rule number two: There is only one rule."
