Some unsolicited advice to everybody in the US putting together syllabi for the Fall: Note the election and build flexibility and grace into the schedule. No exams or big assignments right before or after the election. Maybe have a distance learning day. It'll be difficult, no matter what happens.
I say this because I actually managed to think of this when putting together my syllabus for Fall 2016. It was a very grim and difficult day on our campus (especially because of so many immigrant and minoritized students). Students thanked me that I scheduled no class for the Wednesday After.
