Betty Whitten was one of my first college professors. I was enrolled in the Management program at the University of Georgia, and she taught Business Statistics. My journey to get credit for her class is worth sharing. Dr. Whitten’s class was limited to 60 enrollees, and I was number 62. Each day, I would ask her if anyone dropped the class—but, each day, I got the same negative answer.

When it comes to résumés, most experts recommend keeping things to one page.

But even if you add a second page, remember to keep things as succinct as possible.

Family friendly workplaces are a relatively new thing, but are we using the “family friendly” designation when we really mean “mom friendly”? Some dads think so and they are fighting back. They aren’t just complaining to the HR department, they are going to court. When CNN employee Josh Levs’ wife gave birth to their third child , 5 weeks prematurely, Levs wanted to take some time to spend helping out. They settled last week outside of court and CNN has changed their policy to allow 6 weeks paid leave for all new parents, with an additional 6 weeks for moms who had given birth.
