** Student A, I would allow as long as the instructor is notified at least a day before, as interviews are usually scheduled at least a day in advance. Students B, C, and D I would be very skeptical of, but I would allow if they could bring solid proof that they had an interview at the exact same time as class. Seeing as this class is the same time and same day of every week, the probability that an interview be scheduled at the exact time for so many weeks in a row is just not plausible.
