Relax and Unwind
When the pressures of a college education begin to stress students out, it is important to have an outlet for release. A frequent strategy used to deal with stress is listening to music and playing a musical instrument.¹ For students looking to de-stress with music, Casio's CT-X700 portable keyboard includes upgraded technology and sound quality at an affordable price. With a library of 100 built-in songs, new tunes can easily be learned using Casio's Voice Fingering Guide and Step-Up Lesson System, which displays proper fingering and notation. The CT-X700 reproduces the appealing sound of acoustic instruments such as guitars, drums, basses, brass, wind instruments, string ensembles and more, faithfully reproducing subtle nuances and gestures specific to each sound. Feeling creative? A wide range of tones and rhythm patterns, including a library of 600 tones and 195 rhythms of different genres, allows musical creativity to flow while taking a break from classes.

The CT-X700 is available now at music retailers nationwide, as well as online. To learn more about Casio's full portfolio of electronic musical instruments, please visit www.CasioMusicGear.com.  

Staying on Time
For college students navigating hectic schedules, a reliable timepiece is a necessity. With enhanced features such as solar power, date display, one-second stopwatch and 100M water resistance, the EDIFICE EFSS550PB-1A timepiece keeps students on-schedule for classes, club meetings and more.

The EFSS550PB-1A's solar chronograph has enhanced charging technology that can convert light into electricity via a solar panel located under the inset dials and eliminates the need for battery changes. It can even be charged in low or fluorescent light, making charging in a dormitory easy. After a full-charge and without further exposure to light, the timepiece has a battery life of approximately five months, ensuring a timepiece that will last through the semester and beyond.
