Ah, summer... time to plan out all the details of the classes you'll teach next year, time to write up all those papers & work on all that research you had to put off during the school year! A happy time... A golden time... But wait! Where did all the TIME go!?

Now that June-July-Aug (heck Sep and a good chunk of Oct too) have come and gone and we are full into Fall classes with all the student, teaching, grading, committee stuff, etc. what are the best ways to manage one's time and stay a float?

I'd really like to research this question and come up with a bunch of useful and meaningful answers, but ironically - with this "Nov/Sept" newsletter still sitting in my TO-DO box as mid Oct approaches - I just don't have the time!

However, thanks to the marvels of modern technology this very Editorial is appearing on the online scoop page where I invite EVERYONE to click on the "post a comment" link below and SHARE your favorite time saving tricks!

Thanks in advance!
