	The article is deeply flawed. It begins by saying it is about a US tradition from the 30s and associated with partying but then lists many international examples with no connection beyond being academic holidays around the same time of year - many of which pre-date Spring Break and are to do with Easter.

Or is it about a spring/Easter academic holiday, in which case the opening section needs moving to the US entry and a more general replacement added? <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 13:04, 13 May 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
