Outages

Right now, we are experiencing an Internet outage at PPCC.  (I'm piggy-backing on the student wireless network.)  So, while I'm on my laptop at work dealing with a slow connection, it came to mind, how do we deal with outages in our classes?

The unique thing about CCCOnline is the probability of everybody being down is very low.  Then again, it seems we always hear the line 30 minutes before and assignment or exam is due, "My Internet was down."  So, how do you balance this?

Personally, I'll give a student 48 hours for any reason.  They just have to contact me in advance of the due date.  What do you do?
