As we make the switch from quarters to semesters, students all over campus have felt the change, not only in the number of classes they need to take, but rather, the amount of work they now put into classes. The university recommends students to take 5 classes in order to graduate on time, but what they didn't tell you is that professors are not taking that into consideration and assigning the same amount of work as they did in quarters. Professors are teaching the same amount of material per class as they did in quarters, although class time is generally shorter. Ignoring the fact that class time is much smaller, students are taking more classes, and that semesters are longer than quarters. If your student at The Ohio State University, and you believe that your professors did not adjust their syllabus to the new semester schedule, sign this petition and get your voice heard!
