MORGANTOWN, W. Va.- At 10:25 a.m., Kevin White ran off the bus, dodging travel trailer for sale students like he was dodging defenders on the field, hustling for the doors of the Business and Economics building. His Econ 202 test would start in five minutes.
One of the hardest things for college students to learn is time management, especially students who are juggling athletics, jobs and internships. Time management is significant when it comes to managing travel trailer for sale your priorities travel trailer for sale while getting an education. Learning how to balance both school and your outside personal life is something every college student needs to learn quickly.
White, a wide receiver on the West Virginia University football team, has learned what it is like to manage time. College athletics demands that you consume most of your time practicing and perfecting your craft in the sport you play.
“On Tuesdays and Thursdays, I lift at 6:30 a.m. and then go to three straight classes. After that I eat, go to practice and then watch film. There’s travel trailer for sale only about two hours for me to do my school work at night. I go to sleep around 10:30 p.m. and wake up and do it all again.”
Eric Minor, director of student careers and opportunities at WVU s P.I. Reed School of Journalism , has created ways for students to deal with the issue of time management. Minor has educated students on managing time and has preached that it is all about organization and doing the simple things.
As journalists and strategic communicators, we live and die by the deadline. If we don t learn good time management skills as students, we will struggle in the real world.  Learning to manage your time is not optional. It s essential,” Minor said.
As elementary as it sounds, calendars travel trailer for sale are the key,  Minor said. I have an electronic calendar on my iPhone, but I prefer to sketch out my entire week on a grid that allows me to see at a glance just how much time there really is. First, I sketch in the things that are inflexible. Once you ve put the immovable things into your calendar, you ll be surprised by how much white space is left. Then it becomes an exercise in budgeting. We d all like to have unlimited time and money, but we don t. Just like we have to balance our bank accounts, we can t overdraw on time. If we treat our calendars like we treat our bank accounts, we can become smarter about how we spend it.
College athletics isn’t the only thing that adds to the stress of college students. Students who don’t play sports mostly work off-campus travel trailer for sale jobs in order to afford the day-to-day necessities of living away from home. Daniel Sakel, a senior at WVU, has been working at Gabriel Brothers for two years now and faces very similar challenges that White does.
“It’s tough sometimes. Not only do we practice four times a week but I have to set up the schedule, the hotels, the traveling situation, contact the players professors all while I am taking 17 credits.” Barberi stated.
It s easy to get overwhelmed and then get paralyzed by fear, Minor said. But by doing that, you re ceding control over your life. Time is a weird thing—almost spongy. travel trailer for sale Sometimes it seems like 5 minutes travel trailer for sale is an eternity. Other times it feels like seconds. But if we use calendars to look objectively at time—in a series of boxes representing travel trailer for sale days or 30 minute increments, we get a much more objective—and more journalistic view of time.  If you can sketch out your calendar and every single box is filled, then you are, quite honestly, out of time. And you have to prioritize. You have to edit. But if you have hidden scraps of time in that calendar that you didn t even know you were wasting, it s like finding $20 in your pocket when you re folding the laundry.
