[SML] Aggregate hours for majors?

[Patrick McCreary]

We tie our required hours in to classes - 30/semester for basic 
stagecraft, 15/sem. for basic stage lighting, 40/sem. for Practicum. 
Everyone must have at least six Practicum assignments during their 
eight-semester stint. Those not in a production assignment (actors, 
management, crew) must establish a regular weekly schedule in the 
respective shop. Attendance is monitored, and those that are too far 
behind at mid-term are formally warned of the effect on their grade.

I am leery about this because I think it will mean that I have a lot of grasshoppers in the shop their senior year trying to complete 350 hours in a semester.  I’m sure other people have done this, what was the success rate?  What was the hour requirement?
