Why did Randolph develop the TAKE2 model?

We are extremely excited for this new innovative model, which was specifically developed by our faculty for our students. The faculty studied our current curricular model and decided that the traditional system of four or five classes a week for 14 weeks was not the best way to teach our students. They overwhelmingly supported a new model in which our semesters will be divided into two sessions. During each session, students will take approximately two, 4-credit courses. We believe this model will allow students to better focus on their learning, and it will allow them to better pace their lives and balance all of their curricular and co-curricular experiences.
