Washington State University's decision to possibly alter the current 120-credit system poses a significant risk to academic quality and the integrity of our educational programs. The existing 120-credit system has been a cornerstone of providing comprehensive and high-quality education to thousands of students, ensuring they are well-prepared for their future careers.

Reducing the credit requirement could lead to a compromising in graduates readiness for both the job market and further academic pursuits. By maintaining the 120-credit system, WSU ensures that students receive a thorough education that spans a broad range of subjects, allowing for well-rounded intellectual development.

Moreover, the potential change could disproportionately affect certain programs more than others, leading to an imbalance in educational quality across different fields of study. This could harm WSU's reputation as an institution known for high academic standards and the production of skilled graduates.

We urge the administration at Washington State University to carefully consider the long-term implications of altering the credit system. We believe that maintaining the 120-credit structure is crucial for the continued excellence in education that WSU is known for.
