Campus Viewpoints: Do you like the new summer session?

“The classes are shorter, so it’ll go by faster and you’ll be able to take more classes. I think it’s a good thing.” – Karen Lopez, 22, biomedical engineering major

“I don’t think it’s a good idea for students because summer is their time to take a break and travel and go do family stuff. Summer is a shortened semester so people don’t want to take important classes with a lot of material. You need more time to absorb the material.” Michael Marquez, 29, fire tech major.

“I feel like there should be one section in the winter and one section in the summer. School should be year-round. It’s like jam packing everything into summer. There should be more of a balance.” Roy Buchanan, 22, psychology major

“I think they should have kept winter. It helps to spread it out a little bit more.” Adam Rudow, 20, computer science engineering major

“I don’t know, I think it would have been better to make one big summer session. I think it’s bad that there’s no winter session because now people wont be able to get out of school faster.” Karen Carrillo, 22, undecided major
