For many, it fails to do so. Although the university frowns on the administration of tests during dead week, having assignments due during that time period is acceptable. To aid students' educational advancement and career opportunities, the university should consider changing this stance. Assignments should not be made due during dead week. This time should be reserved for students.
Dead week is students' final chance before the semester culminates in finals.
In addition, it is their last chance to secure summer employment, housing or other details. K-State should heed student needs and put dead week out of our misery. Student Publications Inc.
