Some students say it is.
Others say no way. James Perrien, a sophomore in the College of Engineering and Student Government Association Vice President of Academic Affairs, said Dead Week is usually reserved for students to study for final exams without any outside distractions such as quizzes, tests and assignments. However, many students complain that some professors don't let the week's title live up to its name. Tazmine Morton, a senior in the Culverhouse College of Business and Administration, said she has had problems with having assignments during previous Dead Weeks. Other students do not mind having assignments due during Dead Week.
