Class Canceled

Hello Mr. Jolly and fellow classmates. I was wondering if there is a better system for canceling class than just posting a note on the door? I drive from the West Valley and it takes me an hour to get to GateWay. My next class isn't until 2:30 pm on Mon and Weds. That means today I had to hang out in the library for 3 hours trying to stay busy. I was hoping to gather some ideas on how we could change this. Maybe create an English 102 class link on blackboard just for special announcements or cancellations. Everyone should be able to log in and check for any information posted. If they choose not to check the board than when they show up to a canceled class, they have no one to blame but themselves. Or put a post on the blog spot and make sure everyone is following Mr. Jolly. If you aren't following Mr. Jolly I don't think you will see the post. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Let me know what you guys think, especially you Mr. Jolly. It would help some of us out a lot I think.
