Lecture Hall #2

This video talks a little about how classes work at UCSC and also shows you another preview of a lecture hall. UCSC runs on a quarter system which means classes run for 10 weeks at a time then we have a break in between. On average, students take 3 classes at a time and then supplemental discussion sections as well. Classes for first and second years are usually always big lectures, but as you declare your major and become more concentrated, you will have classes with no more than 35 students. This lecture hall is called Thimann Lecture hall and holds about 200 students.

The following is an computer-generated summary of the video transcript.

So as you can see, there's a lot of, um, wildlife here on campus, including friendly pet pets are allowed on campus as emotional support animals. Leah are on our way to our site class, out of breath, the way classes work at UCSF. They're mostly all really big classes with, like, lectures up to four hundred people, maybe sometimes three hundred. They kind of get smaller as you get more into your major and, like more concentrated. Okay, so you go into the class to show you guys kind of big. Like, Well, that was a pretty big class and it gets overwhelming, especially when you're a freshman and you don't know a lot of people. One thing I've noticed a second year is that I see a lot of familiar faces. Even though I don't like no everybody on a buddy buddy level, I do like no familiar faces. So it makes the campus and the class seem less big and less intimidating, which is really nice.
