I voted yes, but who cares? This is a mostly pointless poll. The useful analysis is in the thread itself, where I'm going to say: it's a good idea. If attendance is mandatory, you might as well be doing something useful with your time.

I got burned by this once. In law school we had a moronic class with a prof who didn't want to teach it and got the course dumped on him a week before the semester started. So he said attendance wasn't mandatory and the final would be on the reading material only. I took him up on it because the subject was easy and class time was taken up by whackos arguing their feelings, and a three hour final to decide the whole grade was what I liked. Stroll in, spout some crap on paper, get the same grade you always get. So I missed around 6 weeks and came in one day to make sure I was caught up in the reading. I happened to be there when the class was about to start and my buddy was going in and I figured I might as well go once or twice. Well, by the luck of the draw, that was the day where the prof said that the final was going to cover class discussions. Oh, FU, F me. So I started attending some, took the final, got the same grade I always got anyway. What a bastard that guy was though. 7CSFAP may or may not have been in that classroom once or twice, I don't recall. The newspaper definitely made some appearances tho.

I think my statement that anyone that voted yes was lame as hell, may have something to do with it.
