Xi'an is renowned as one of the Four Great Ancient Capitals of China and also as the eastern terminus of the Silk Road. A walk downtown revealed a veritable trove of Tang Dynasty, pagoda-style buildings, even the local KFC. I was pleased to run across the city's Muslim Quarter and get a good beef kebab for my dinner.
The noun SEMESTER HOUR has 1 sense: 1. a unit of academic credit; one hour a week for an academic semester. Familiarity information: SEMESTER HOUR used as a noun is very rare.
1 semester hour = 1.5 quarter hours So, if you have 45 quarter hours, it would equate to 30 semester hours. Credits and hours mean the same in college...I prefer to use credit hours, because that's really what you are getting credit for...the time you spend in the classes.
