Los estudiantes se alegran de que no (haber)______ clases los sábados.
is it "hay" or "haya"--I know you should use subjunctive with emotion words but don't you only use subjunctive when it refers to a person?

No, you don't. - Jubilado, Aug 14, 2013
May you please clarify? So it would be "haya" right? because it follows the normal rules of subjunctive after emotion. - englishespanol, Aug 14, 2013

Alright I did some research and it is "haya". I looked at different examples from a spanish website. I guess the rule doesn't exist.

If you are learning Spanish here on SD, have a look at this link: Subjunctive

I did. I thought there was a special rule/ just like rules for "God-willing" and the imperfect subjunctive and present subjunctive--they usually aren't mentioned in general sections. - englishespanol, Aug 14, 2013
