Faculty
Focus - David Lancy
Dr. David Lancy loves kids. So much, in fact,
he has several toys and a small tricycle scattered
throughout his office so a co-worker's infant
daughter can use them when she comes to visit.
"I've always enjoyed the study of children's
play," he said. "There's part of me
that's never grown up. You can never, never take
yourself too seriously." more... |

it comes to student issues. Here are a few
things your student may be experiencing
this fall more...

Putting
off 'til tomorrow what needs to be done
today! The Tendency to Procrastinate
Many
students are afflicted with the procrastination
tendency. Up to 70 percent of them identify
as procrastinators, according to Psychology
Today (Oct. 28, 2003). It's what keeps them
up all night cramming or finishing papers.
It's what causes them to tell you they'll
do something but not follow through. It's
an affliction with both mental and physical
impacts. more...

Cultural
Conversations
Take this opportunity to talk with your
student about what's happening on campus
and what he or she is learning. What did
he get out of the MLK Jr. speech given by
a member of student government? What Black
History Month activities is she planning
to attend or is she helping to organize?
And does he know what 2006 is according
to the Chinese zodiac (it's the Year of
the Dog)? more...

It's
never too early to start thinking about
the future - Career Concerns
Many students don't set foot in the campus
Career Center until they're a senior, frantic
to get their résumé critiqued
so they can find a job. It's wise, however,
to visit this helpful office early on-even
during the first year-because career counselors
can help students get on track and explore
career options they may not have known about
otherwise.

The
Housing Dilemma: "Where Should I Live?"
A
place to hang your hat-we know how important
that sense of place is. And at this time
of year, many students are beginning to
figure out their place for the upcoming
year. Where will they call home in the fall?

A
Tax Time Reminder
The
advent of a new year means that tax paperwork
will soon be arriving. So, if you are still
involved in your student's tax return preparation,
you'll need to gather those incoming W-2s
from on- or off-campus jobs. Talk about
exchanging these forms now so that they
don't get lost in the jumble of your student's
busy life. more...
