I'd like to know more about this alarm clock that "hops around the room" My older son has to set 3 to get up, then again he was the one I had to go yell at every morning of HS, the younger has just one clock, and gets himself up and ready without extra prompting.

One tip that worked out well for us was to buy white sheets and towels... that way he had full loads of whites to do and maybe even changed his sheets more than the oh gross, 1x a semester!

Get ISBN numbers for books you know he HAS to have and buy them from half.com or check ebay. (has saved me a BUNDLE) computer book 160 new, 113 used, ragged cover, but otherwise just fine 36 delivered from half.com, to beat all the bookstore bought it back from him for 40! Just make sure the Prof is going to use the book, and if you buy from the bookstore KEEP YOUR RECEIPT!
