Greenwood University (GU) students who return home to other parts of the country over the summer sometimes take classes at other universities with the goal of receiving enough additional credits to graduate early. However, beginning next year, the university will no longer give credit for any courses taken at other institutions. The administration is concerned that not all universities meet our own rigorous academic standards. GU has decided, however, to lower tuition on its own summer courses to make it affordable for out-of-town students to take classes here during the summer and still have the opportunity to graduate early if they wish.

Now listen to two students discussing the announcement.

I think this is way too extreme. Quite a few students rely on this.

Yeah, I know. But I took a chemistry class near home last summer and it seemed a little easier than science classes here.
说话人2 00:19
Maybe I get that they're concerned. I not every class at every school is the same, but they could handle it on a case by case basis.
说话人3 00:29
What do you mean?
说话人2 00:31
Why not just make students submit a request ahead of time? They could find and then send in the course outline for the class they want to take.
说话人3 00:39
Yeah, those are pretty easy to find online. Or you could always ask the professor.
说话人2 00:44
Right. So show that to the office here at gu they can decide if it's good enough like they could have told you that the chemistry course didn't cover the same things and not accept it. That's fair. But that wouldn't always be the case.

I see. Yeah, but you can always stay here over the summer. It sounds like they're making it easier to do that.

I don't think what they're doing though will help as much as they think. I you still have to get housing and that's a big expense. The reasons students go to stay at home and study near there is to save money.
说话人3 01:18
Yeah, it's still Free to live at home. You can't beat that.
说话人2 01:21
Exactly. You want to spend time with your family and your friends back home, especially after we've been away so long.
