Each fall students interested in teaching courses submit an听application听and begin planning their courses. Course registration happens on a rolling, first-come, first serve basis with many classes filling up quickly! Burst the bubble courses help to give students more to do during winter term, a typically slower period due to students taking only one course during the time period. 听Both student instructors and participants report participation in this program as a great addition to their winter term.

Burst the bubble courses have few requirements and the wide variety of classes offered in previous years have reflected this. There is no faculty or staff involvement in teaching the courses and no homework or outside work is required. Courses range from active skill learning classes to discussion and lecture based classes on hot topics.

The Burst the Bubble program was first offered in Winter Term 2007 and was the idea of Lela Faye Rich, Associate Dean for Academic Support and a committee of students, faculty, and staff members.
