<p>Hey, I was looking at DePaul's academic calender and noticed it wasn't on a semester system which is somewhat out of the ordinary. I was wondering if the winter break is from the end of November to the beginning of January, it was looking like that. Also I was wondering what it is like under their quarter system, do people generally like it?</p>
<p>A friend of mine attends DePaul and he had nothing but good things to say about the quarter system. He says the year flies by because of it, and winter break begins before Thanksgiving! It will surely be a big difference for many, namely myself, since I come from a high school that runs on a semester system. However, I am looking forward to the quarter system and believe it IS the better system.</p>
