Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course
which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American
universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester.
A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks, while attending a university a
student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would
expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of
work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one
university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular
practice.
For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is
available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes a constant pressure
and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student
affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective word
of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities.
Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for
example, by cheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students,
the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one
of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career.

Marriage is an ancient religious and legal practice celebrated around the world.
However, wedding customs vary from country to country.
The Wedding Dress: In many countries, it is customary for the bride to wear a white dress as a
symbol of purity. The tradition of wearing a special white dress only for the wedding ceremony
started around 150 years ago. Before that, most women could not afford to buy a dress that they
would only wear once. Now, bridal dresses can be bought in a variety of styles. In some Asian
countries and in the Middle East, colors of joy and happiness like red or orange other than white
are worn by the bride or used as part of the wedding ceremony,
The Wedding Rings: In many cultures, couples exchange rings, usually made of golf or silver and
worn on the third finger of the left or right hand, during the marriage ceremony. The circular shape
of the ring is symbolic of the couple's eternal union. In Brazil, it is traditional to have the rings
engraved with the bride's name on the groom’s ring, an vice versa.
Flowers: Flowers play an important role in most weddings. Roses are said to be the flowers of
love, and because they usually bloom in June, this has become the most popular month for
weddings in many countries. After the wedding ceremony, in many countries the bride throws her
bouquet into a crowd of well-wishers – usually her single female friends. The person who catches
this bouquet will be the next one to marry.
Gifts: In Chinese cultures, w edding guests give gifts of money to the newly-weds in small red
envelopes. Money is also an appropriate gift at Korean and Japanese wedding. In many Western
countries, for example in the U.K, wedding guests give the bride and groom household items that
they may need for their new home. In Russia, rather than receiving gifts, the bride and groom
provide gifts to their guests instead.
With the continued internationalization of the modern world, wedding customs that originated in
one part of the world are crossing national boundaries and have been incorporated into marriage
ceremonies in other countries.
