Once upon a time the state universities in Alabama operated on different calendars. For eg Auburn and South (Alabama) were on the quarter system. Bama was on the semester system. Auburn and South began almost a month later than Bama. It was not unusual for a disappointed PNM to transfer to South which had/s a smaller Greek system. However, it would have been very unusual for a Bama student to transfer to Auburn. It would be heresy.
The calendars were rationalized so that everyone is on a semester calendar making it much easier to transfer among cc's and the universities. And now rush is almost concurrent across the campuses.
