Sorry, Gabe - but your system doesn't work. If you convert from earth time to NSA time, and then back to earth time, you end up one year short of what it should be. I clarified and added more explanation, and a note about the accuracy of this system of time.
(The first NSA year is actually the spring school quarter. This means that while NSAy's follow school quarters, it does not actually follow school years, and it spans two school years, say 2019-2020 school year, and 2020-2021, so we use the -2 to show the last two quarters of the school year 1997-1998 that were not in NSA history.) |

for example - right now, it's getting close to Christmas, so I would add 1 to the NSA years. So, it's technically NSAy 101, because (2023-1998)*4=100, but we are one term past the fall term, so add one year. Thus, it's NSAy 101. | for example - right now, it's getting close to Christmas, so I would add 1 to the NSA years.
