First run of Ohio State semesters evokes mixed feelings
After 90 years on a quarter system, Ohio State was sure to have some growing pains as the university transitioned from quarters to semesters during the 2012-2013 school year. But as OSU enters its second year of semesters this autumn, some faculty, staff and students are pleased with the conversion thus far. “I’m shocked how smoothly the transition actually went,” OSU Executive Vice President and Provost Joseph Steinmetz said, “given reports that I was aware of from other institutions that had done it and some of the issues that they had during the first year. We avoided a lot of those issues. “In the end, I would describe (last year’s transition) as remarkably seamless.” Steinmetz credited the university’s three years of preparation for the conversion, as well as community’s engagement in preparing for the shift, in allowing the first year to go as well as it did.
