Hi Brandon, Getting students to assume responsibility is always a challenge. Some students have the maturity to come in get the work done and have course success others never put forth the required effort and are always looking for a break on course requirements. I like your idea of the two make up days. You are showing them that you understand that they may fall behind on some things but they have two days to make it up and only two days. This way they catch a bit of a break but are held responsible for their work throughout the rest of the course. Gary
