Does it really matter if parents send their kids a few minutes late to school from time to time? The morning is a rush as it is to begin with and now parents have to waste time in "detention".
From my experience I learned never to start rushing to just be "on time". I wouldn't come late on purpose, but I'm not going to rush my butt off.
i only did that once!
so nyu can admit one extra freshman next year, pay off the guy they owe, and pocket an extra 15K.

I've got a feeling that in this school it's not a time-to-time thing.
