ENTRY #5 Shorter Classes

So after reading this article about ASU offering more shorter classes starting in January, I definitely see the positives and negative aspects to having shorter classes. 

Positives:

• Flexibility for those who work or are older 

• Lower tuition for a shorter class which is financially better for some

• Also bring in more students to the university

Negatives:

• Fast paced classes are not suited for everyone

• Full 16 weeks worth of material crammed into 7 1/2 weeks

These shorter classes will not suit everyone but it is definitely a great option to have for those who are motivated to graduate faster and are able to use time management skills being that the work load is going to be heavier.
