Kevin,

With school (M.S. in Cybersecurity at Bellevue University) and work and teaching demands at IIT on my life at the moment, no dates are good.

But Tuesdays and Fridays would be the least desirable, because I Teach ever Tuesday, and Friday is a big day for wrapping up project work on my new job.

This is a brief description that I wrote for a lazy school Team mate of my life and what all I am doing:

Vamsi,

I am going to tell you what I think. I just don't think you understand Teamwork in an online course.

When you don't participate, or participate as little as possible? Everyone else has to contribute more, and know that you will get a good grade because 4 guys did the work of 5.

In real life, your lack of project participation over three weeks would get you written up or fired.

Study this page:
http://www.billslater.com/uop/wfs_teamwork.htm

Why don't you start treating the rest of your Teammates like your esteemed work colleagues?

By the way, we are all busy. Here's what I am doing every week:

1) Struggling to keep up with a new job that requires about 55 hours a week.

2) Struggling to keep up with the demands of TWO online Bellevue University Courses: both CYBR 515 and CIS 608. And yes - both together are personally kicking my butt.

3) Struggling to keep up with the demands of the Data Center Course I am teaching at the Illinois Institute of Technology. (See attached syllabus.)

Maybe you just need to get busy and manage your time better. I suggest you review the data at this page. I put it together to help manage my time last year when I was in an MBA program. http://billslater.com/schedule I completed that MBA program in October 2010 with a 3.78 GPA, and I didn't have any time to waste in a 168 hour week. http://billslater.com/uopmba

Think about these things, my fellow Group 2 Team Member.

Regards,

William Favre Slater, III

Bill,

We have a status hearing this coming Tuesday. One of the issues that I expect to come up is the possibility of the Court setting the case for a settlement conference, which is typical in civil cases. Should the Court set a date for a settlement conference this fall, I will want to make sure to schedule it for a date that you can be present. To assist me in agreeing to a date that works for you, please let me know the dates that you are not available in October and November.

Kevin
