Farewell fall break

Reporting about the SGA, not a record of it: The Johns Hopkins News-Letter published this and the SGA did not write it, file it, or approve it. The archive holds it because the article itself uses the phrase “sga”.

Summary

  • This Johns Hopkins News-Letter article covers the cancellation of the 2009 fall break and a proposal for future fall breaks.
  • The News-Letter reported that the University cancelled the scheduled 2009 fall-break day because of a scheduling oversight.
  • The paper reported that Paula Burger said “the world is [not] going to collapse if we don't have a Fall Break this year,” while the article criticized the scheduling error and loss of the break.
  • The article proposes starting classes a week earlier from 2010 and calls on the SGA and Office of Student Life to pursue a longer fall break for future students.
