Regarding Scott Pellerin and the last three weeks of class:  I am
one of Scott's instructors, and he has been very conscientious
about finishing out the term.  He knew of the possibility of being
asked to head to Utica on short notice, and made arrangements with
me beforehand to complete homework assignments, etc.  One of his
teammates is collecting the remaining material, and Scott will
graduate on May 9th.  The fact that he did not just blow off his
academics is further credit to this remarkable individual.
