It's incredibly important that you show up to every single class. While you may be unable to avoid missing one due to illness or emergencies, aim to keep your attendance as close to 100% as possible. Not only do some professors detract points from your grade for missed classes, you will miss important lecture or discussion information that you can't find in the textbook. Handwritten notes are retained better than typed notes. Writing your notes keeps you focused on the lecture and also prevents you from checking your social media or becoming distracted by web-surfing during class. You can also add visual components shown in class to your notes, like charts or graphs. Though you may be tempted to skip a scene of Othello or simply browse through your history textbook, try to resist doing this. Make it a priority to read and complete every last thing your professor assigns. Hone your reading skills so that you can complete your assignments in less time. Turning in your assignments late can mean a docked grade, which won't help your GPA. Refer to your planner frequently so that you know which assignments are due for which class each day. For larger projects, make sure you start work ahead of time so you aren't rushing to finish a paper that's worth 25% of your grade the night before it's due. Studying with classmates can really help prepare you for exams. They may have information that you missed or be able to explain something in a way that helps you to better understand it. Find several people in each class that you think you would study well with and arrange to meet up. For example, you can choose to meet your study group once a week, or several times before each exam. It's important to develop strong relationships with your professors. Not only can they help you understand class material, they may also be able to write you letters of recommendation for graduating with honors. Figure out when and how your professors prefer to be contacted (e.g., Wednesday office hours, evening phone calls, etc.) at the beginning of the semester. If any of your professors offer extra credit opportunities, take advantage of them. You'll be able to boost your grade or earn back points lost for absences, late assignments, missed exam questions, and the like. Find out at the beginning of the semester if each of your professors offers and accepts extra credit. If they do, add those assignments to your planner so you don't forget to complete them.

summary: Attend all your classes. Take handwritten notes. Do the required reading and homework. Turn in all your assignments on time. Form study groups. Talk to your professors. Turn in extra credit.

Summarize the following:
Because competition and performance leotards are usually adorned with foil, sequins, rhinestones, and other delicate decorations, these are not fit for use in a washing machine. Instead, wash only your basic leotards in a machine. If your practice leotards are prone to bleeding, washing one at a time, or washing with similar colors will prevent discoloration. If you use your washer, you must use the delicate cycle, as the delicate cycle will not agitate the wash as drastically, and will not pull or yank on the delicate fibers of your leotard. "Permanent Press," while a more delicate cycle, is still too harsh a setting. Use the shortest delicate cycle possible. The longer your leotards are in the machine, the higher the risk of damage is, so use the shortest cycle possible for your machine, including a single rinse. Because you can use your hands to gauge the water's temperature, hand-washing is fine in lukewarm water. A washer's "warm" cycle, on the other hand, might be a bit too warm for delicate fabrics. Note that some powdered detergents do not dissolve well in cold water and some liquid soaps do not disperse. Check your detergent to make sure it is formulated for cold water. Place your leotards into the basin, gently layering around the agitation spindle, if your washer has one. Do not overload the washer's chamber. Instead, wash only 3-5 leotards at one time. Overloading your washer can cause your leotard to get caught on the machine's spindle, or caught in the door. Overloading can also make the rinse cycle less effective, leaving behind dirt and detergent. Do not place your leotard in the dryer; although a washer can be placed on a delicate mode to protect your leotard, the heat and tumbling of a dryer can damage your leotard. Excess heat will damage the elastic properties of the fabric, dramatically increase wear on metallic or other effects, and may even shrink the leotard. If you must use a dryer, use a no-heat setting and make sure the leotard is inside-out.
summary: Separate your practice leotards. Place your washer on the "delicate" cycle. Run cold water. Place your leotards into the washbasin. Hang or lay flat to dry.
