Winter Session is a five-week term between the fall and spring semesters. Winter courses meet January 3 through February 4, 1995. Roughly half of all undergraduates attend Winter Session every year. The Summer Sessions begin during the first week of June. In each of these special sessions, students may take up to seven credits to accelerate progress toward a degree, to focus on a single subject, or to synchronize their course schedule with the sequence of fall and spring course offerings.
Courses are often available that are in high demand during the regular semesters.
Approximately 300 students each year find that Winter Session is an especially good format for a study abroad experience. The Library, Student Center, Housing and Dining Services, Carpenter Sports Building and other support services are active during the special sessions. There are also full programs of cultural activities including films, concerts, bus excursions, and lectures during summer and winter sessions. Booklets containing detailed information and course listings will be available prior to the registration period for each session. Winter Session booklets will be published in September, and registration begins October 12.
