The College used to give us Presidents' Day off and the Tuesday following it. Now, with the new Academic Calendar, we get this whole week off. Go figure...
For me, it will always be Washington's Day all the way. There are other greats. of course, but I think GW was the "sine qua non" U. S. President.
Life is good for the members of the teachers' union!
When I wuz a kid we got Feb. 12 AND 22nd off for both birthdays. Of course, there was less to learn in those days....
