Liberty is the only thing I know of open today. Class is still in session, all of the other departments are working.

Why is this?

Because Jerry Falwell never believed in breaks (hence why we never got Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day) and thus, continuing his legacy, Liberty remains open.

Oh yeah, the Hillcats are playing tonight and I'm working...and since I'm 21, there's no going home early for me tonight.

maybe their reasoning behind it is because they had their celebration this past Sunday, its really the only think I can think of....I worked for Liberty this time last year and I got time and a half on July 4th, so I didn't complain

i'll have to say that i am NOT down with having class today.

however, thank God ledo's was open. it overrides the terrible thought of having to be in class and at work on a holiday.

We simply cannot afford to take a day off. In our office, July is when the fun begins.

most of the physical plant workers (grounds, painting, house keeping, maintenance) at LC had to work today, including me. LC doesn't like having manual labor folk all off on one day for some reason.
