Hey Natsangel

This is really a 21st century question isn't it? In an earlier day (our fathers/mothers generation--you might or might not decide to cross or not cross the picket line but you'd KNOW WHERE YOU STOOD) there'd be no uncertainty. But you're a student. You're not taking anybody's job by crossing the picket line. What's a guy who respects the rights of working men and women to do?

My advice: Go to your school. If your school is in the hospital and requires crossing the picket line--cross the line. Damn shame that things aren't as simple as they once were. You're not taking anyone's job.

For your future, it's what you oughta do.

I would not let this interfere w/ my education. Interesting that your instructor gave you the option...
