Online students are often overscheduled – adding academic course work to employment and family responsibilities. Dropping a class can seem like an easy option to lighten the load when a crisis occurs, but it's not always the best option. Students: join us and share your experiences and questions about online course schedules. Instructors: join us and share your guidance and recommendations.
Join us during our summer schedule – 30 minutes – on Wednesdays beginning at 12pm ET.
