All sessions end on Friday at noon. The schedule is subject to change, but students will be given notice well in advance of such changes. Please see the insert in the back of this booklet for the current on-campus dates. Students take four classes per semester. Each class is introduced during the on-campus portion.
Students meet their professors and receive textbooks, reading packets, and course outlines.
Introductory lectures and group discussions take place during this time. Off-campus, students maintain contact with professors and classmates via the computer conferencing system. The conferencing systems lets students send electronic mail, share files, and participate in electronic group discussions. Each course has its own area on the conferencing system and students can read and respond to questions from their professors and classmates. This will vary depending on the course and the instructor.
