I took a 3 week field course there when I was in university. It certainly wasn't as intense as the full semester programs. I did however, talk to some of the students that were there full time, and they were worked pretty hard. You certainly don't slack. Having said that, I doubt any of them would trade the experience for anything in the world. You'll learn so much and see nature in a way that most people only see on TV. The scientists there seemed very nice as well.
Also, because the program was intense, when the students have a chance to blow off steam, they do it well.
