<p>Horror stories about finals after break? I’d love to hear those. I’m quite a fan of having finals after break, which gives everyone the chance to to go home, rest up, and catch up on reading if necessary (or get a jump start on paper-writing for those with intense Dean’s Date workloads). We still have a nine-day reading period after break to take care of all the necessary studying and writing, and Princeton has a very student-friendly finals policy: finals period lasts eleven days, and no student is required to take more than one exam on any given day.</p>
