Dear Bridgewater
State University,
A
problem in this university is that classes’ start to early and student
constantly complain about 8:00ams. When it came to registering for class the
majority of student do not sign up for 8:00ams sometimes they are just forced
to take a class that early because the other times are taken. 8:00ams are one
of the last classes to fill up student try there hardest to avoid 8:00ams. A
Bridgewater State University student, Mark Tyo, said, “ My worst grade is in my
8:00am class. I’m just really tired in the morning and I struggle to focus in
class. My performance in the class is suffering because the class is just to
early. If the class was just a little later that would be great.”
A
solution to this problem would be to push all the times back an hour. If all
the hours were push back nothing would really change except the evening rate
for classes. The evening rate would start a little later then usual.
If
classes were to start later it would benefit basically everyone on campus.
Teachers would be able to sleep at later times and have more time to grade test
and quizzes. The cooks and chefs would be able get a better nights rest and
probably be more efficient at their jobs. The students would be able the study
longer and get a good nights rest. If students had more time to study they
probably would do better on test and quizzes and if they got a good nights rest
they would be able to focus better in their morning classes. According to Times
“The data showed that kids who didn’t get enough sleep were not only more
likely to have problems understanding during class, a result the researchers
had expected, but they were also more likely to do badly on tests, quizzes and
homework — the very outcome the students were staying up late to avoid.” These
students lost sleep for studying and did more harm then good, but student would
not lose sleep if they had more time to study. So pushing the times back
student would be able to study longer and still get plenty of hours to sleep.
Also since classes would start later students would have more time to be able
to have breakfast and start the day off right. It was reported by Food and
Nutrition Service that “Breakfast is often described as the most important meal
of the day, and rightfully so -- it not only provides important daily nutrients
such as protein, fiber, calcium and carbohydrates, but it also helps improve
school performance, allowing students to do better on tests.” Student would
benefit tremendously if classes were a little later and they would have a
better chance of succeeding in school.
Sincerely,
Angel Olmo
