I thought getting an early schedule was great because I was done with classes by noon normally. By my senior year it wasn't worth it though. I found myself not going to them.

Yea, I volunteered to teach them 5 days a week myself.

yikes- when will you EAT?

gotta allow an hour or two for that, no?

[Realist]

7:40!!!!?????

Now that I'm older that's not so bad, but in college? I had one 8 am class and I think I missed it half the time in college.

WEF and I had the same schedule one semester, and the perfect one: 1-4:45 M-Th. That's it!

Gotta love AP classes in high school so you can get by on 12 hours some semesters.

I used to schedule all of my in the afternoon. However, now I work in the afternoon. I have class til 12-1, work in the afternoon, keep my nights open.

So glad I graduated...I had a hard enough time making it to Editorial and Opinion Writing at 7:50 AM-and thank God that it was an upper level journalism class taught by Mrs. Huff or else I would've never gotten there.

Instead of moving things back 10 minutes, why not just offer 7:00AM classes?

That idea was broached a couple of years ago. The campus has grown so spread out, that the times have been pushed back in order for students to make class on time. Even with the tremendous job the university has done managing the shuttle and transportation system, it was a stretch last year for students to make it from DeMoss to North (and vice-versa) on time.
