This topic is a compilation of academic calendars of various schools and a discussion of the associated issues. The objective is to give a quick view of the issues involved, so we can develop a schedule that accounts for variance in holidays and start/end dates of academic semesters. Our objective is to offer at least 10 concurrently taught modules over the semester.
