A Student's Reflections on Project Community Dora Brantely was a student for three terms at Project Community, a U-M service-learning course. The following is her final journal entry on the Huron Valley Men's Facility, a maximum security prison. "When we wrapped up our Project Community site activities, it was really important to me. Leavin *n the Valley was difficult because of the rewarding experien hich everyone a ociated with that site had. It was like leaving a bu h of newly discovered frie ds, but at the same time I was sad, I was also lad, because the term II over and with the end of the term came the end of my firs ' e coordina ing. as glad because, at that point, I kn w I had coordi ated successfull . Doing s mething for the first time always m es me anxi us ... but after it s over I rea ized not only had I made it through, ut mad it through succ sfully. As far as the site activities a concerned, the thing I thoug t was most important to close with was to t the men know we were ot some college kids who were there for a couple onths just to w some monkeys in their cages. I wanted them to know that we enuinely cared about them. In order to do this, I made sure they knew we appreciated them letting us come in and share in an eye-opening experience. I let them know that working with them made me appreciate them as human beings, not just prisoners." Huron Valley Men's Facility is one of more than 40 Project Community field placements in Chemical Dependency, Criminal Justice, Education, Environ- mental Advocacy and Health and Special Populations. For more information, please stop by the Project Community Office, Room 2205, Michigan Union, during office hours (Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.).

Are they smarter? Doubtful. More organiz l' bably. Better at managing their time? Likely. Time management is important to any ,it cI orstdent or- ganization members and leaders. Inv 'e in c urnpa 'es means in addition to classes, home m ap s, joband social ts, another significant amount of time is n'uby orgiza tions. Following are some tips for improved ti emr nt; 1. Organize. Make a "To Do" list each day or week. Don't chide yourself if you don't finish everything; just add the uncompleted tasks to your next list and continue on! 2. Prioritize. Review your "To Do" list and rewrite, in priority order, the items you need/want to do at the top and the less important tasks at the bottom. Be careful of placing a high priority on a task strictly because someone else feels it is important for you. 3. Schedule. Take your list and begin to work your tasks into your schedule. Don't plan every minute of your day and don't create a schedule that is impossible to follow.
