While one might argue that secondary fields do not have significance—professional or otherwise, that is simply not the case (indeed, why have them if it were?). While some firms may discount them, others will take them into account. Secondary fields will be especially helpful for those pursuing careers in subject areas outside of their concentrations. For example, an English concentrator with economics as a secondary field might be seen as having an advantage over a Romance Language concentrator for an investment-banking job. While other factors do play a role, the demonstrated interest a secondary field indicates...

...have an Ipod and a Myspace account, I chat online, and I can play online games for two hours without realizing it. But my mother and I have a very good relationship because, when she comes to talk to me, I disconnect myself and listen. When she comes home, I leave my room to hug her and say hello. And I am grateful that my mom sets rules and curfews and disciplines me the way she does. Parents may hate it when they have to discipline their children, but rules really do help in the long run.

World Trade Center, the account of two Port Authority policemen trapped beneath the towers' charnel rubble, follows in August.

...real original. A hit at the 2005 Aspen Comedy Festival, she doesn't do traditional monologues, yet her parodies and character pieces are not (like a lot of Whoopi clones) so much about showing off her performing virtuosity as opening a window into her alienated soul. Giving an account in court of a near rape, she describes being followed down a street by a man, panicking when she realizes the only self-defense she knows is origami, then asking the guy out dancing. At the end of her new show at the Upright Citizens Brigade in New York City...
