Read This To Get Even Smarter
(Without Really Trying)

Case Western Reserve University students are busy. Really busy. They carry full course loads, they're double majors, they have multiple minors, they participate in lots of extracurricular activities&mdsh; they're engaged all across University Circle. You should know. That was you a few (or beginning to be not-so-few...) years ago.

That busy lifestyle didn't stop once you left campus. Odds are, it actually ramped up. Case Western Reserve grads are really, really...really busy. You're probably juggling additional schooling, careers, family obligations, fitness routines, volunteer work, heck, even a social life. You've got a lot going on.

So maybe you wouldn't mind a little helpful advice on how to balance one or two or more of those things. And who better to dispense it than your fellow CWRU alums, the same people who were busy shuffling up and down the Binary walkway with you, running between classes and clubs? You could relate to them back in college because they were experiencing the same things you were. And they still are now.

That's where this magazine comes in. Welcome to a conversation with your fellow alums on a smorgasbord of topics that you're experiencing in your daily life. Welcome to quick hints and tips from friends that you can digest quickly and easily— and put to use today.

Welcome to Smart.
