Spring break-Adin Lee

I have been attending BYU on and off for several years now and the hardest semester for me is always the Winter semester.  The reason why it is hard for me is because of the lack of break.  There comes a point in the semester(at least for me) where I have a hard time continuing because I have been going nonstop for weeks. Yes, one of the reasons why we don't have spring break is because there are often times deaths of fellow students, while they are either doing something stupid or because of an accident that could not have been avoided. Another reason why we don't have a spring break is because it prevents fellow students from making poor choices while on vacation.  To those who make poor choices on spring break that may get them kicked out of B.Y.U.: your fault. I think that we should be offered a spring break.  I think we work hard enough to earn it.  It could easily be worked in while still being able to have a spring and summer semester. BYU should be able to allow women's conference go on with our semesters going as they do with E.F.Y. We, as students, should be their first priority.  I know that many of my fellow students would back me up in this argument. We have only one holiday weekend the entire semester.  Even strict boarding schools have more breaks than we do!

  1. I can sympathize with the need for the break, as well as the role of personal accountability when on break.
