For most college students in the world today skipping class is very normal for whatever reason there may be. There are very many reasons that make skip class and maybe these are the reasons that would justify it. However, most students lack a really legit reason why they skip class. As a result it becomes routine for them. To others it is a way of showing off to earn them popularity in campus for their crooked conduct. Students are required to at least attend 75% of their lecturers in a semester, failure to which they are not eligible to take their final exams at the end of the semester.
However, students have come up with very many ingenious ways of making up for that 75% attendance. Some rely on their classmates to cover up for them in various fraudulent ways like signing class attendance sheets on their behalf. Others have gone to the extremes of bribing lecturers with either money or using their body. With all respects to morals, this is crime and gross misrepresentation of justice. However, based on the reason for skipping class, this action can be justified. Failure to attend lectures due to health concerns may be justifiable and the administration may excuse a student who presents such an argument for reason. Skipping lectures due to absence from school as a result of family problems may also be justified. As a matter of fact students should learn that there are official channels of seeking to be away from school for a period of time. This is so as to find evidence to prove that skipping class was for a probable cause.
