Time Management for College Students
Arguably the most critical skill in adapting to college life and the real world is the ability to budget time. It seems like there is an abundance of it until midterms come up and you realize that you’ve only read halfway through the first chapter of one text. College is far more academically intense than high school. Your high school teacher was probably satisfied if you stuck in a stray reference to the actual topic. College instructors, however, tend to pick your term paper apart and dissect it like a frog. Since academic excellence was the ostensive reason for going to college, you have to do your best to attain it. But this takes time, because every professor thinks her or his class is the most important, and assigns accordingly. Learn how to manage your time effectively with these simple suggestions.

As convoluted, boring or ridiculous as it might seem at the time, it is imperative that you know all the ins and outs of the System, the sometimes nameless, faceless bureaucracy of the school administration. They almost have as much control over your destiny as you do, but they are nominally there to help. If you need money, for example, they can turn you on to student loans, scholarships, internships, and, on rare occasion, a halfway decent part-time job. Administration also provides for health care, should you break your arm in a pick-up croquet match, or come down with a severe case of depression. 
The degree and nature of change during your freshman year of college varies depending on the size of the college, its distance from parental units, and whether or not the student lives on-campus, off-campus, or at home. If you come from a large high school, then trot off to a private college that has 900 students or so, then you’ll have to adjust to a situation where everyone knows both you and your business. In that case, it’s best to learn the art of discretion. If you come from a small or moderate-size high school and go to Megastate University, with a student population of 50,000 or more, you’ll have to adjust to anonymity. 
Congratulations! Three months ago you suffered through the cap and gown ceremony, complete with 10,005 photographs with each and every family member. Now you have just completed freshman orientation. If you’re like many students, however, orientation can leave you with more questions and doubts than you started with. To your (*gasp*) horror, you realize that you have committed your life to academic pursuits, and wonder how you will survive it the first year, let alone the next four (five, six, or seven). 
If you think that your professors are going to let you get through this semester without writing at least one term paper on Barack Obama you are completely fooling yourself. In the year of a presidential election, professors love to assign term papers on the presidential candidates. Certainly any political science class will require a Barack Obama term paper, probably an English 101 course and then other professors will amazingly apply the candidates to their course material also! Your sociology prof will want to know in an Obama term paper how he stands on social issues such as health care and social security. Your history professor will assign you an Obama term paper on how he compare with other presidential candidates. And don’t be surprised if your anthropology professor works Obama into the course somehow also. As this blog has repeated emphasized, professor’s like term papers on hot, up-to-date topics so you need to know how to write an Obama term paper that stands out from the hundreds that your professors will read between now and November 4th.
