 Are you taking classes this summer?  Are you struggling with time management? Here are 3 steps you can follow when trying to manage your time and class work. The first step is assessing how you spend your time. The easiest way to do this is to add your commitments (class, work, student org meetings, etc.) to a calendar.  You can also schedule in needed time to study, eat meals and take breaks.  The second step is to create an itemized “to do list” with all the tasks you need to tackle. The third step involves prioritizing your “to do list” by identifying the importance of the task and the deadline.  Put upcoming assignments and other important tasks at the top of your list.
