As we return for the fall semester,
many students who work full
or part time may find it difficult to
organize their time between classes
and involvement in other student
activities.
"It's a challenge to get people
interested in becoming more involved,"
said Dr. Mary Jane
Drane, director of the Academic
Skills Assessment Program.
A great number of students
wonc mil or pan time out 01 economic
necessity. Here the
Academic Skills Assessment Program
can help, and Drane has some
tips for students who work, have a
full class schedule and also want
to become more involved in student
activities.
First, students need to keep
things balanced. Working full time
and being a full-time student is not
advised. Twenty hours a week is
probably the maximum time a student
can work and carry a full
schedule. A work/study job would
be the optimum choice, possibly
even improving a student's grades,
allowing extra money to be earned
without interfering with study
time.
Second, scheduling and planning
activities is important for the busy
student It is important to prioritize
activities according to both longterm
and short-term plans. Day to
day goals should be used to include
all activities that need to be ,
done within the course of the
week.
"I cannot stress enough how
much importance the business
community puts on time management.
Students can easily do this
by picking up The Mortar Board
at one of the student book stores,"
Drane said.

a large part of the blame for the re- th
peated changes in the release date th
of the two new Guns V Roses albums,
which now stands at mid- th
October. Rose attributed the fr
changes to his being a perfectionist fii
and to wishful thinking on the part m
of record company executives in sa
determining the original dates.
