Say what?? Further investigation was warranted. The article, written by Erin Donnelly, addressed a survey of 2,000 women [...]

Let’s talk regalia fashion…
I ordered my academic regalia the other day. I had a bit of trepidation when the nice gal at the bookstore said I would have to be measured. Those cloth tape measures give me pause. I thought that I should perhaps wait a few weeks before I was measured so that I could make an [...]
