Sample of Other Responses:

  • no classes earlier than 9:30

  • 50 min classes everyday!

  • having classes offered every semester so that graduating in 4 years was possible

  • The schedule really is fine "as is"

  • No classes on FRIDAY

  • no friday classes

  • no classes before 9 am

  • Many semesters, I have found myself with three or four stacked back-to-back T/TH classes. No time for food!! Off campus students would have REAL trouble with the 8:00 am start time, especially in bad weather.

  • no early morning classes for example 830...also to redo the exam schedule and get rid of saturday exams

  • no friday classes

  • No class on Fridays!

  • chapel time without meetings scheduled

  • no class on Fridays

  • more classes offered later in the day

  • No Friday Classes

  • no class on Fridays

  • Longer period for add/drop

  • classes starting at 9am the extra 30 min of sleep or study for morning classes would help a lot

  • not costing extra for taking extra hours b/c some people are already having problems paying the tuition and still want to get out of here in 4 years

  • no friday classes

  • The class schedule works for all the students i have talked to. If its not broken, dont fix it

  • No Friday Classes

  • more time options for all major classes. many classes over lap and I can't take what I need with a double major

  • no break on t/th in the morning

  • no friday

  • no class fridays/online registration

  • no friday classes!

  • The system works. Dont change it

  • Fewer classes offered at the same times--mostly 9am and 1pm MWF; maybe add night classes or more afternoon classes to spread them out instead of offering so many at the same times; and offer classes more often than once every 2-4 years!

  • You don't want to know!

  • NO CLASS FRIDAY

  • Biology labs be at night, so that they don't interfer with the opportunity to take other classes, and having a couple days after exams in the spring to move out so you are not trying to pack and study at the same time.

  • more options for study in the afternoon

  • no class on friday

  • no class before

  • more class time options

  • no class on fridays

  • all classes start after 9am

  • less overlapping classes within major

Sample of Other Responses:

  • the way it is

  • if J&M terms are, of course, optional

  • Not sure what January and May term are. I like things the way they are.

  • keep it the way it is

  • J&M terms if they are, obviously, optional. But it'd be a great advantage for students who wish to finish earlier.
