finals week

***Note practice times of 3:00 PM for Tue-Thu, and 8:00 AM on Fri.

For those who have a final exam conflict on Tuesday afternoon, there will be an alternate Tuesday time of 8:00 AM.  For any that have a conflict on Tuesday with both times, you should switch Tue and Wed, doing your workout on Wed.  If you have a conflict on Thursday afternoon, you should do that day's training on your own when it best suits your schedule.  If you have a conflict on Friday morning, you should do the workout on your own later on Friday, or even on Saturday would be ok.  Also, note that this week will be the last week with a scheduled day off.  Going forward we will be on normal schedule.

Lastly, good luck on your exams!
