- 8:40 a.m.
This is the awkward time when you haven’t missed much, but the editors-in-chief are in the middle of doing a story spreadsheet check. You have to walk in front of the projector screen and awkwardly sit down in the dark while everyone judgingly stares at you.
- Don’t show up
No one wants to skip the greatest elective offered on campus *eye roll*.
- 8:10 a.m.
You work in silence for 20 minutes before even the editors-in-chief have shown up. Maybe even finish up your story that was supposed to be done by today …
- 9:54 a.m.
Get a good night’s sleep without getting a cut on your attendance record. However, if this is consistent, you will get a surprise visit from Archie telling you that you have been specially selected for Treasure Toga.
- 8:26 a.m.
You have a few minutes to just sit and breathe in your seat before class starts. Talk to the people in class and get yourself ready for the long day ahead.
- 7:30 a.m.
Show up before everyone else and immediately get to work. The grind never stops, even when you have to sit outside the classroom because Mr. Tyler hasn’t arrived yet …
- 8:25 a.m.
This is the most reasonable time to arrive to classes that aren’t journalism, so you might as well get in the habit of showing up a few minutes early. However, if you’re only getting dropped off at this time, you better start running to class.
- 8:21 a.m.
According to our beloved Editor-in-Chief Saachi Jain, this leaves the perfect amount of time to set up the projector and talk to Mr. Tyler.
- 9 a.m.
Skip the monotonous, daily spreadsheet check and get straight into independent journalism work. Besides having to stop by the office before class, this is a great option if you have a few people to interview and stories to write.
- 8:32 a.m.
You showed up earlier than a third of the class and right in the middle of Mr. Tyler taking attendance, so as far as he’s concerned, you’re basically on time.
