Is there a way you can explain the "block scheduling" better for us first time parents? Neither my husband nor I went to college so our son is a first generation college student and we are clueless about the block scheduling. I'm slowly teaching myself about the rest of this college stuff but I'm trying to understand the schedule part. I just want to make sure our son does his very best in college so I want to stay in the loop. With 2 other teenage children this is going to be a challenge for me but I'm getting it done!!!!! Can't wait for our son to be going to our top college and the college he's wanting to play football at! Even though sign ups have passed :-(
