Quarters to Semesters.

Dedmon, Donald N.

AGB Reports, v28 n3 p32-35 May-Jun 1986

The conversion from quarter to semester plan can be beneficial academically and financially. Some costs borne by a college and its students potentially can be cut by one-third. The process has a potential for strengthening curricula because the conversion necessitates a thorough examination of each course. (MLW)
