New Blue Hen Parents: Questions?

<p>Hi mhc48,
Winter session is from right after New Year’s (about Jan 3 this past year) and lasted 5 weeks. As far as I could tell there is a wide array of classes offered. My son, who is an athlete was required to stay on campus during break so he took a required class for his major. It was a pretty hard class so he was happy to have only that one subject to concentrate on. He hung around with most of his teammates and had practice every day but was pretty happy for all the kids to arrive for spring semester because he said campus was pretty desolate! Also because Delaware’s fall session ended pretty late and he had to be back at school early January he is pretty burnt out right now. Feels like he has had no downtime from school and is very much looking forward to spring break.</p>
