Hi everyone,
What is the best solution for the following (assuming there is one). I
have a class that takes place three times per week (Monday, Wednesday,
Friday, for example). I would like to schedule this as a habit. What is
the best and particularly, most concise was of doing this?
Right now, I have three headings that are scheduled every week as
follows:
** class Monday
** class Wednesday
** class Friday
I have been using org-mode for quite a while now, but I am _using_ it
more than exploring all its features and possibilities, so please
forgive if this question has been answered.

The Worg FAQ lists a couple of methods.[1] You can’t really get away
from using multiple headings, though, unless you write a diary
function of your own.

I would use a weekly repeater for these tasks.
,----
| * class Monday
| SCHEDULED: <2011-03-07 lun. +1w>
|
| * class Wednesday
| SCHEDULED: <2011-03-09 mer. +1w>
|
| * class Friday
| SCHEDULED: <2011-03-11 ven. +1w>
`----
... but do you really need to take the *habit* of attending class??
:)

I wonder why the OP uses a "habit" of these classes. They'd probably
work better as just regular appointments, like this:
* Class Monday
<2011-03-04 Fri +1w>
Personally, I use org-habit to /hide/ a headline until the day it's
due. I love that feature, and use it for > 50% of my "scheduled"
things.

Well, I was actually trying to make a joke... when I was young, we
were forced to go to class -- this was not a "habit" we had to take :)
