<p>What is reading period? I know it's a period when you read but how often is it? Every day? How long? Etc</p>
<p>Reading period is the period before exams (about a week long) in which most classes (except languages and some intro classes) are not held and students catch up on work and prepare for finals. There are only 2 reading periods each year.</p>
<p>Starting in the upcoming academic year the reading period is only 8 days. :(</p>
<p>Heh, while students on the quarter system have a weekend to prepare. :p</p>
