Even Olympians have to turn in their homework.
Madeline Schivas, a Canadian figure skater and student at McMaster University in Ontario, shared a post on social media revealing that she had to ask her professor for an extension on an assignment. She had a pretty good excuse though — “I was competing in the Olympic Games yesterday.”

“I am a student in your Sociology 2FF3 course and am wondering if I could get a short extension on this week’s reflection,” Schivas wrote in an email to her professor. “I was competing in the Olympic Games yesterday and thought the reflection was due on Sunday, not Friday.”
Schivas attached a link to a Canadian Olympic Committee press release to prove her participation. She captioned the social media post, “LOLLLL I❤️being a student athlete.”
The figure skater, who is making her Olympic debut this year at the Milan Cortina games, competed yesterday in women’s single skating, earning a score of 64.97. She’ll be competing again tonight in the team event.
