The term “Time Batching” came from her (I think), however, as an educator, who was part of the team when we moved the academic schedule from 6 periods a day to block schedules, I get it. It makes sense.
People ask me how I get so much done in one week. Well, here is a week in my life.

The best way to learn about Carnegie Mellon is to tell the TALES of its founders:
Born in 1835 in Scotland, Andrew Carnegie immigrated to the US in 1848. According to Wikipedia - by the 1860s Carnegie had investments in railroads, railroad sleeping cars, bridges and oil derricks. He built Carnegie Steel Company which he later sold to JP Morgan in 1901 for 480 million dollars. With this sale, Andrew Carnegie surpassed Rockefeller as the r...

When I think back to my experience as a Trojan, I can only describe it as a feeling that I went to school with a bunch of superheroes. The bravado, confidence, and can-do spirit found in Trojans is equal to that of Wonder Woman, Superman, Batman, and Captain America.
