Professors are very happy to work with, and accommodate the different priorities of students. As I said, I took 2 months off last winter. That, in certain, departments might be considered blasphemy. My adviser was really great about it since I had done all my required work by then. | |

I wonder if this has as much to do with students trying to take too much time off as it does for professors who might never let their students leave ("my letter says I get 14 days off!")... | |
