Oberlin has 4-1-4 and requires students to do January term 3 out 4 years. They have traditional classes that meet every day for 4 weeks but also the opportunity to do projects, research or something way out of the ordinary. Some students this year went down to New Orleans to help with reconstruction for instance. Other students worked on a theater production.

My son only had 10 days off from the end of finals in December til he had to be back in Jan. He had some time off at the end of Jan. term but chose to stay on campus. He will then get a 1 week spring break and be done in mid-May.
