what was "dead week" for you like in college?

As a J-school grad, Dead week meant wrapping up your Advertising RFP's. But it meant you just got weird during finals week. It was awesome.

Highly depends on your major.

Stuff like science, engineering (i think) and math have it really easy - it is just a worthless week where nothing is due before the final exam. For some of the more liberal-arts type of majors, journalism, architecture, english, etc - they have it rough because that is when most of their final projects are due.

I was an Engineering major and dead week was far from dead. It was usually full of wrapping up projects, homework, presentations, etc. It was almost as stressful as finals week itself. And even if dead week was "dead", there was nothing easy about engineering. It was 4 years of stress and borderline hell and I'm glad it's over.

Yeah I wasn't sure and was basing it off of one kid I knew freshman year, thus the question mark.

This is probably the best dead week I have ever had in my whole two years in college.

No homework at all.

Thursday: PSYC 350 Research Methods and Analysis Exam 4 (Not a final)

Friday: PSYC 287 Personality Psychology Exam (Is a final)

Monday: HIST 208 World War II Exam 3 (Not a final)

Tuesday: PSYC 380 Abnormal Psychology Exam 3 (Not a final)

But a lot of my work this semester was front loaded, so it does balance out.

Ill take this test for you. I love World War 2 stuff! If I could watch Band of Brothers all day long, I would.

And in return, you can take my patho/pharm final for me, deal?

Drunken debauchery. Ending up in an alcohol fueled three-way with two non-college-oriented party bimbos. Perhaps I’ve said too much . . .

 
Dead week when I was at UNL was just a normal week. If anything, I generally had more papers due than normal. Normal classes. Normal reading assignments. Etc.

Dead week is dead.

I have a couple of friends who are chemical engineering majors...and while their work load is easier this week than any other week during this semester, they still have a fair amount of stuff to get done.

Do I know you?

 
We would go out and kill a mammoth, slow roast it for a couple of days, raid the neighboring tribe and drag their wimin to our cave by their hair. Did I mention I am old?

380 was the best class I took this semester...Only not CBA class I took, which probably explains it..and Dr. Nelson was pretty sweet.
