Assassin’s creed is an action adventure video game that many students enjoy. It’s an award winning game that is very popular with millions of gamers. However, the best gamers are also often college students that have to sacrifice time with games like Assassin’s Creed for classes and studying. the good news is that even the best students can find time in their busy schedule for great games like Assassin’s Creed!
The key to fitting such as intense hobby is time management. A college student’s interests are already incredibly diversified and their schedule tight. With classes, studying, research paper writing, working, sports, and socialization there isn’t much time for gaming. But with a little bit of organization and discipline most students can make enough time for their video games.
The first step of managing your time is to list responsibilities and activities you want to make time for. Next simply prioritize your list and get the most important thing completed. As strong as the desire is to make Assassin’s creed near the top, one knows it can’t be. Term papers and homework need to come first! As well as a job and other commitments. There is a huge advantage to your mental attitude when the day’s priorities are completed and out of the way. Guilt is no longer an issue and the experience is so much more enjoyable.
With less money available for college students on the federal level, colleges and universities across the country are looking for ways to help students save money. One of the first areas that are explored for savings is in textbook acquisition. Much to the disliking of the major publishing houses, text books are being offered in a variety of unique and cost-saving ways by colleges and universities. From iPad texts to downloadable e-books, college students are finding savings in a wide variety of textbook solutions.
Some unique savings we have seen at Paper Masters for textbook delivery include e-text downloadable on the university website. This method has been around for many years; with the trend most likely starting with the popular academic internet based solution, Blackboard. Students have been logging onto Blackboard for years and uploading their term papers, downloading class lectures and view course texts. Generally, textbooks are downloaded in .pdf form on sites like Blackboard. However, recently e-texts have been improved to be interactive work more like a wiki than a simple downloadable text.
With the launch of the iPad, it was Apple’s wish to break into the market of e-textbooks. In an extensive campaign to all the major academic publishing houses, Apple attempted to be the lone distributer of textbooks and turn the academic world upside down while offering substantial savings to students. Textbooks were rumored to be something that a student could rent by downloading them for a semester and then the rental period would expire and the text would no longer be available. Good idea? Apparently not, since it feel flat and Apple never succeeded on selling the big publishing companies on the idea. Profits won over practicality.
What does your university do to help with the cost of textbooks? Any innovative colleges providing a solution that needs to be passed on to other academic institutions. Let us know, we are all about saving student’s money.

Halloween seems to have become more and more popular every year. It has risen to the holiday favorites list of many people. This especially seems to be the case across college and University campuses. What is it about this spooky celebration that nearly turns even the most rigid of students into “little devils”?
Halloween is celebrated about the same time as college midterms. Could it be that the stress and work load from ensuring good grades give students the perfect opportunity to release steam? Are they ready for a little bit of ghoulish fun after several weeks of keeping concentrated study? Who could blame them.
The stress of college brings on many complications in a college student’s life. Holloween is a great time to let loose and party within a fun atmosphere. A holloween party is a great way to meet people. Typically costums are involved and they give an opportunity to disguise, enhance or flavor one’s personality. Holloween can be as individual and original as you like or dress up as the typical wicked witch or swashbuckling pirate and be the life of the party with a traditional theme.
Perhaps dressing up as someone else or something else allows a young adult to freely explore other interests. The college years are the perfect time to investigate and discover one’s interests. Dressing up and letting one’s “hair down” is the perfect recipe for a student’s discovery.
Whatever the reason, Halloween is a big event on the campus. Happy Halloween from Paper Masters!

The fabric on the inside cover comes in 7 different stylish color choices. There is even a mock library card inside with an individual number for your particular case.

Using the Dodo case gives a student the feel of reading a real book with classic binding. The cover is regal almost and the inside is classy. It is so well made and the reviews are great.

If Only...Romeo and Juliet and Text Messaging
Back in the industrial revolution, technology got a bad rap. Think of the film Metropolis and Fritz Lang’s depiction of the future of industrial labor under the strong arm of technology. However, today’s college students can hardly scoff at technology, as it drives their lives in nearly every aspect. Journalism classes at Purdue University require Twitter accounts; New software called Hotseat allows students to ask questions live, during class via their facebook, twitter, myspace or sms accounts. Think of the limitless possibilities of social media technology in light of past predicaments. If only Juliet had text messaging, that whole “I just committed suicide” misunderstanding could have been avoided. I can see it now…Juliet texts Romeo “brb…taking fake poison…napping, catch you later in tomb”. Easy as that, no communication problems. Think about Twitter and the Holocaust…”Hitler’s an ass…I don’t buy a word of his crap”. “Germany is killing Jews, wtf are they thinking!”. Or how about the fall of man: Read more…

Netbooks for College Students
Netbooks have received a vast amount of criticism over the past year but one area that they excel in without debate is for use in the educational setting. Cheap, compact and powerful enough for student applications like word and the internet, netbooks seem tailored for college students.
While cheap generally is connotative with “sacrifice what you really need”, I find this not to be the case. I work weekends on a netbook from a hotel room and not once have I ever run into a situation that I felt a lack of memory, power or screen space. I even do web development on my Toshiba NB205, and find the 10″ screen just fine for seeing the big picture. Read more…

Sierra Club Helps Students Fight Against Coal on Campus
College students are in a very powerful place in their lives to make change on a grand scale. The 18 to twenty-somethings are grouped together, educated and generally open to looking at the world in a new light, as they are recently freed from the influence of their parents. We encourage the college students we work with to become involved in active in the educational process beyond the classroom, that is, what is going on socially with their peers. Social change can happen on a grand scale, beginning with the college campus. Take the example of protests going on all over campuses over the use of coal. From Penn State to Georgia State, students are protesting the use of coal-based fuel, some of which produces the majority of power on campus.
Coal was among the first fossil fuels to be collected for producing energy or power. It lost favor when oil and gas were found to burn more cleanly. However, coal has once again become useful for generating power or providing heat or electricity. New technologies have reduced the harmful emissions that result from burning coal. Students on the campuses that use coal are concerned that the harm to the environment isn’t worth the cost savings of using a non-renewable resource. Furthermore, students are upset over the message that colleges are sending. As institutions of higher learning, colleges should be ashamed of campuses that operate coal plants. Coal, just like wood and other fossil fuels, is a limited resource. The over-use of coal, with its inevitable carbon dioxide emissions, is attributed to increasing the greenhouse affect. Keep an eye on how well students are doing in kicking coal off college campuses.
Students can make a difference on a global scale. Get involved in social change issues on your college campus and you’ll meet people, learn about change in a changing world and do something productive with the power you have.
