The students have spoken – our new <\/em>semester sequence bridge courses<\/em><\/a> are a success! As of the current Winter 2016 term, we have begun offering CH 124<\/strong> and CH<\/strong> 125<\/strong>: half-term courses that supplement our regular term in order for a distance student to meet a full semester at his or her home university. Here is the feedback we\u2019ve received so far from students in these courses:<\/em><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Christine Stockunas<\/strong>\u2026. \u201cI was a dually enrolled student last year when I took CH121 through OSU Ecampus.\u00a0 Seeing how successful I was, thanks in part to the\u00a0instruction and support I experienced with OSU chemistry department, I decided to pursue a science-based degree.\u00a0 Due to some course inequivalencies from another school, as well as beginning my chemistry studies with CH 121, I was unable to transfer directly into the 200-level chemistry sequence this year. \u00a0 If it were not for CH 124 being offered I would have to take the entire first term of chemistry over again! Offering CH 124 is saving me time, stress, and money.\u201d<\/p>\n

Andrew Wimer<\/strong>\u2026 \u201cI had 1 semester of chemistry at Willamette University about 12 years ago and am looking to make a career change. The program I’m applying to requires a full year of chemistry. I was thrilled to find [CH 125] because the University to which I am applying was willing to accept this bridge course and that has allowed me to have the option of not taking 2 terms of chemistry. Having it online is an additional benefit, as I work M-F 7-5 and am unable to attend almost every other alternative to this course. Overall, I don’t think there could’ve been a better fit for my situation than what is offered here in this course.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jaime Geib\u2026. <\/strong>\u201c[CH 124] was very convenient to meet my needs of fulfilling credit requirements for another University. However\u2026the four week period is a stressful timeline to complete all of the work required by a 3-credit course. I would not recommend it to people working full time. This is what I am doing right now and it is not easily manageable. However, this course probably meets the needs of an undergraduate student much differently, especially if that student is on break.\u201d<\/p>\n
