Here’s what students said about J Term 2012:

“The small class and teacher attention was fantastic. It was a great setting, very different from the usual semester, which was a nice change. And I got to meet some people I wouldn’t ordinarily run into.”

“I was not expecting to enjoy J Term but I truly did!”

“It’s a great way to knock out a course and lighten your regular semester load.”

“One of the best experiences I’ve had at SMU. So incredibly worth it. Eight days of hard work makes you feel so good and productive after a long break.”

“I’m working toward earning two majors and a minor, and thanks to J Term, my semester course loads are much more manageable.”

“I was amazed with the quality of learning, the amount of material read, the professionalism of the professor. It really was one of the best classes I have ever taken.”

“I liked the fast pace and small class size. And I will be able to graduate in May!”
