Palomar College is transitioning from a traditional calendar to a compressed calendar which means our semester will be 16 weeks long without a finals week. In this webinar I will be joined by Dan Sourbeer, our Interim Vice President of Instruction, and Dr. Kendyl Magnuson, our Director of Enrollment Services. We will learn more about the compressed calendar and what impact it will have on our faculty, students, and the college.
This webinar will be a Google Hangout on Air. You can ask questions during the webinar by using the Q & A app which allows you to type in questions.

Please let us know if you have any further questions about the compressed calendar!
Since this is a 16 week schedule, I’m guessing that means there’s no official “finals” week. Presumably, this means that final exams are built into the 16 weeks? I teach English, and I’m curious as to how this will affect the department-wide final exams (English 10 and 50).

Great question. I suggest talking with the English department chair. I’m sure they’ve figured out how to accommodate the exams.
