CONGRATULATIONS! GRADUATION EDITION FALL 2005 PAGEA2 THE EAST CAROLINIAN � GRADUATION EDITION 12-08-05 Organization is truly key Being sure you have all your ducks in a row is vital CAROLYN SCANDURA FEATURES EDITOR One of the most important skills anyone can master is the fine art of organization. There is no right or wrong way to organize but there are wrong ways to manage your time when it is running out. Being less than two weeks from the December graduation ceremony seems that it would qualify as a period in some people's lives when time is running out. Not enough time to prepare for final exams, not enough time to go to The Career Center for that mock interview you have been planning on doing all semester and definitely not enough time to spend time with the people who got you through college day to day, your friends. Having someone else tell you that your time Is running out and you need to buckle down is the last thing that a December gradu- ate needs, what you really need are a few fresh ideas to help you get through the next few weeks with grace. First and foremost, you need to be sure that everything is in place for you to graduate on December 17, with the rest of your depart- ment. Contact the graduation office, just to be safe, and be sure that you have completed all of the required paper work, you know what time you need to be at the ceremony and there are no- last minute fees or unpaid parking tick- ets that need to be taken care of. Aside from the routine admin- istrative items that must be taken care of, worrying about exams, papers and final group presenta- tions can be hectic and if some sort of organization is not in place, Important things can be missed. Try either making a to-do list, writing out sticky notes or using a month-overview planner. That will allow you to see when things are due, how long you have to do them and what other events must occur in that time period. Many people find It useful to plan events in order of pleasure. Not many people find pleasure in writing their 15- page history paper, but may find pleasure in holiday shopping. Put all of your tasks in order of what must be done and what you truly do not want to do.

There are so many paths to take, so many.companies to choose from and so much preparation that must be done. More so, what about the problem of employers only want- ing to hire people with experience but no one can get experience without being hired? Fortunately, ECU has a The Career Center to help students down the long hard road of ob hunting. If you have not already made contact with The Career Center, it Is never too late. The center describes their primary focus as providing assistance and guidance to students and alumni in their career quest.

This resource, which is a department within the division of Academic Affairs, helps students to fine tune their job-hunting skills and increase their confidence in high- stress interview situations. The Career Center uses a system they call e3, a combination of student exploration, experience and engagement in community resources. As described on their Web site, "Exploration is the foun- dation, Experience Is the practical application and Engagement is the point where you take control of your destiny Community resources range from members of the university, employers, agencies and other external populations such as other university popula- tions. Through their well-con- nected network, The Career Center can keep many employers as their partners, which can help students to initiate opportunities in public, private, governmental and corpo- rate sectors of work.

There are many career spe- cialists on their staff, one of whom will be able to guide students through resume writing, what kind of answers are appropriate for typical questions and what type of questions the student should ask an Interviewer. "After visiting The Career Center, I have felt better prepared in interview situations, more con- fident about my resume and very connected with the work world said senior Industrial Technology major Nicholas Walters. "I am graduating on the December 17 and the help I received at The Career Center has been Invaluable With graduation approaching quickly, this is a very busy time of year for The Career Center so appointments are necessary.

Mama, Daddy, Trudi, &Matt Graduation from page A2 that Item, use some energy on concentrating and just getting it done, all of your other tasks will seem much less stressful. No matter how much you have to do, one of the most important parts of stress and time management is saving some time for your- self. Whether it be taking the time to watch NipTuck or going to the gym, these little breaks from all of your responsibili- ties can really help relieve stress. If you are really in a time crunch, try com- bining those plea- sure activities with another required task. Watch your favorite television show and wrap holi- day gifts or go to the gym and study while you are on the exercise bike. The old saying, "kill two birds with one stone" definitely applies here. If you feel like everything is getting out of hand and you are going to have a nervous break down, be sure to stop what you are doing, take a break and breathe. There are many relaxation-breathing techniques that really can help calm your nerves. Try looking on the Internet for some tips and trick on how to relax. Stress can drastically decrease your productivity and so can sleep deprivation. One of the most popular comments heard out of any student's mouth is, "I'm just so tired College students often do not get enough sleep and it can affect all of their everyday tasks. When planning your day, be sure you plan enough time in there for sleep. If you don't you will end up dragging your feet all day and getting less done that you needed to. Taking those extra two hours to sleep will not only make you feel better, but will also increase how much you get done. If you are having trouble getting to sleep, again use the Internet as a resource. There are many Web sites that can help you find new ways to g. calm your mind so that you I can sleep. t Everyone has so many things to do at this time of year, getting it all done seems impossible. Searching for jobs, perfecting your resume, going to work, studying for exams and still managing to perform the human tasks of eating and sleeping can seem Impossible, but taking a few minutes each day to plan your time and prioritize your tasks can be a great tool not only in the upcoming weeks; but for the rest of your life.
