How serious do you think Winter Term is at Oberlin College?

I think it's as serious as students want it to be and make it to be.

I actually spent most of my Winter Terms just screwing off. But I did one serious project. I think almost everyone's project is really legitimate. You're learning about something that's real to you and important, so it works for me.

I've always taken it seriously, but a lot of people do crazy, blow off things.

I think that in general, individual projects are not taken seriously, whereas group projects usually are. But it also depends on the person because if you have enough initiative to do something productive and worth while you can definitely do that and you have the resources to make it good, but it's also really easy to get away with doing nothing.

I think it is what you make it and I think most people use it for a time of rejuvenation from the past semester.

think it just depends on what you make it. It can be really valuable. I did capoeira, and it was absolutely incredible and I just threw myself into it and got a lot out of it. It's a Brazilian martial arts/dance. I am still obsessed. It can be so powerful, or it can be really stupid. It depends on what you put into it. I think it can be really lame. There are professors you don't really have to have a plan with.

It's about as serious as a person can make it.

I learned about my peoples and watched T.V.
