Has anyone heard of UPenn starting this? I went on a tour back in August and the student leading them said that UPenn was planning on (I think it sounded that concrete) to have Wednesdays off and have a 4 day week for students. She said this was part of a mental health initiative, and that students could choose to stay on campus and work at the library, or go home and study there.

When I called admissions to ask about this they were unfamiliar with what I was talking about, does anyone know if this Wednesday off thing is really in the works or if this was just proposed by the students and was denied?


Thanks!
