Credit/No Credit first semester freshman year?
Hey there!
My name is Emily and I'm class of '07. I'm on the Curriculum Committee, and tonight we discussed making the first semester Pass/Fail, as Swarthmore, MIT, CalTech, and Johns Hopkins do. (Students would still have those four C/NC choices for their other 3.5 semesters) We heard a lot of arguments for and against this, but we want student and alumnae input!
So, what do you think?? Good idea? Bad idea? Reservations? Comment here or email me at ealewis AT brynmawr DOT edu!
Thanks!
