Question
Are midweek breaks helpful to students, especially for college/university students?
Mike,
Thanks for the question.
Midweek breaks are great for everyone! However, they do not reflect the work world.
University is to give us the skills necessary for success in the workplace. Having a break midweek does not reflect what it will be like after graduation and you are working.
I hope that this helps.
Greg
