Trimesters and summer internships?

I was googling for some examples of hard start dates last night and couldn’t really find any- just the White House and Google itself. Even Google seems to have a second later start date to accommodate students on a “quarter” schedule, whatever that is (Stanford?).

I’m familiar with the trimester system having gone to Earlham and I did like the compact and focused nature of the academics. But my messed up family situation made the 6 week break complicated. I think it can also be difficult for international students who don’t plan on going home over thanksgiving break.
