I liked new classes every 10 weeks instead of every 15 weeks, and for those classes that required a year of instruction, you just took three quarters instead of two semesters. And if you regretted a class or if it didn't challenge you much -- or if it challenged you too much, you only had to suffer for ten weeks instead of 15.I like the quarter system better as well. The reasons you state are all valid IMO. There are also a lot of introductory classes that simply don't require 15 weeks. These classes end up wasting lots of the students time by stretching out the material to a full semester length. If you want to go into greater depth, sign up for the follow-on course(s).
