011235813 Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Yeah. Our drop date is always towards the middle of the semester. (for Fall or winter classes) Our drop date for year classes was in February for this year. You can drop the course with a decent amount of course material already completed, depending on the class. You don't get the money back, but like you said, if you have the money and are going for the 4.0, it doesn't matter. Only issue is losing the full course load for weighting formulas.

Falling Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Apparently poli sci courses won't be restarting. I wonder if this disjointed semester will have an impact in summer courses in other departments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronjw Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 If ECON follows suit (doubtful as they are less socially conscious lol) then things could get seriously interesting. Poli and Econ spread far and wide, reaching nearly every program in one way or another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falling Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Yeah. I'm not personally impacted unless the disruption makes s1/s2 impossible. I doubt that happens. A lot of my friends are taking Econ electives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow February for a full year course! That is great haha. Yah but I can see a small portion of people using it to their advantahe- who needs a weighting formula if you can just drop it if you messed up something. Anyways just found it interesting. Back to the regular scheduled discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope that's not true but if it is that it's being reported to whoever you report such things to. If it were me, I'd of whipped out my phone and started emailing a Tstar or Globe reporter lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falling Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Also rumours that sociology courses will remain suspended until the strike ends. All these courses will have to be finished over the summer. Those departments will not have summer classes. edit: Communication Studies also suspended their courses. aaronjw 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falling Posted March 20, 2015 Report Share Posted March 20, 2015 Shoukri and co are hoping that students from those departments will turn on the union. I'm not sure it will happen all that quickly since LAPS will have very liberal students. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
