Should Kansas University follow Duke University’s lead by pushing class start times later than 8:30 a.m.?
Asked at Vermont Street on April 26, 2004
“No. If people want to take early classes they should go to bed early enough to get there. Offering early classes makes it easier for people with different schedules.”
— Sara Kapfer, KU senior, Lawrence
“I've not had a class before 8:30, but certainly 8:30 seems early enough.”
— Mark Silver, KU senior, Lawrence
“Yeah, for sure. It would give people more enthusiasm to get to class.”
— Rebecca Lafferty, KU freshman, Lawrence
“As the father of three teenagers, I can attest to the fact that kids get more nocturnal as they grow older. A later start time would probably do them good.”
— Tom Holland, Kansas state representative, Baldwin
