I don't sense what I would call any undue anxiety. Some high school students who toured the Twin Cities campus last week didn't know much about the semester conversion and said they were not concerned about it. I'd think it would be better. Tiffany Ristau, a University of Wisconsin-La Crosse student, said her school is already on a semester system and she believes that the change will be for the better. Orientation leader Rachel Bents said about half of the students she's encountered know of the impending change.
People are generally receptive to it.
