...printings in such countries as New Zealand, Brazil and South Korea. All the female theoreticians need now is to get men to listen. That's an area where Nice Girls Don't Get the Corner Office's Frankel and The Power of Nice authors enthusiastically agree. Says Frankel: "I spend half my time working with men, teaching them to be more like women. I talk to them about the importance of things like listening, collaborating, motivating and seeing the human side of their staff."

Conversely, FAS’ bleak financial outlook must not justify an attempt to cut existing programs, let alone hamper new ones?...
There were just two hurdles to clear before the plan could be executed. The first was the HoCos themselves. Always wary of being asked to spend their limited budgets on events that are not exclusive to their Houses, some HoCo leaders were ambivalent about chipping in to pay for parties for the whole College, not to mention for a bunch of Yalies. When they gave their assent last week, all was on course for a successful event—until House Masters intervened...
