no classes on fridays?

<p>i just got admitted to SEAS Class of 2011....</p>

<p>is it true that Columbia doesn't have class at all on Fridays?</p>

<p>i heard this from a few people....but i feel like they just might be b.s.ing me</p>

<p>Pretty much true for CC. Lots of science/engineering classes meet Fridays (generally less so for upper-division), which is lame. But half the class won't be there on any given Friday.</p>

<p>Some classes like entry level foreign languages also meet on Fridays, but they're usually low intensity.</p>

<p>this is my second semester and the only class i've had on a friday was a chemistry lab i chose to have then (could have taken it at night during the week if i wanted)</p>

<p>i dunno if C2002 and i have just had vastly different experiences or if they have changed drastically in 4 years but not many of my seas friends have friday classes either...</p>

<p>Even counting recitations I only know of 1 that has met on fridays (freshman orgo)...</p>

<p>other than some language classes, i really dont think many classes meet fridays</p>

<p>eighth semester over here and never had class on friday....and i'm an engineer, dont know what C2002 is talking about.</p>

<p>I actually looked up a couple of the classes that I had that were M-W-F, and they're all now M-W. I never had more than one class on a Friday, but I think I had only a couple of semesters where I didn't have any Friday classes. And I tried to avoid Friday at all costs.</p>

<p>They probably did change things. As Skraylor says, I had fresh orgo on MWF, and it's not even MWF anymore.</p>

<p>Actually, one smaller class I had was MWF for 50 minutes and the students and the prof agreed just to go an extra 25 minutes on M and W to entirely avoid Friday classes. The profs hate them just as much as the students.</p>
