I switched from a semester system in undergrad so with that in mind, I prefer the quarter system.Can I ask how you feel about the quarter system? Any pros/cons 🙂
Also any other “weird child” facts you’d care to share would be very appreciated!
Pros: quarters are only 10 weeks so if you don't like a class, it will be done before you know it. We finish winter quarter right before spring break so you don't have any studying to do during the break.
Cons: if you like a class, it's done in 10 weeks, exams come up super quickly.
Weird stuff - Oregon is just a wacko state. If you've ever been to Portland, you'll know what I mean. Every year, a bunch of people dress up as witches and paddleboard down the river in Portland. It's very hipster which isn't necessarily good or bad, just a different culture from the rest of the US. Just a lot of stuff that makes you wonder how many drugs someone had to do to come up with an idea. It's a nice place, just kind of weird if that makes sense.
