it's an experiment. if it fails, they'll change it back after a few years

it's good to try new things once in a while.

the part time schedule allows participation by a different group of students. it also allows weaker students to participate who may feel they need more time to deliver the expected results. now they have a buffer to do that.

whether that's a good thing or not remains to be seen. but the only way to find out is to try it.
