I myself would encourage Ms. Juilland to consider corporate law,
publishing, journalism, engineering, and local politics as areas for
future focus. Also, although a sex equity coordinator is not necessarily
my first choice, someone who works in a field or combined fields of
social equity would be at the top of my list. Finally, perhaps there
would not be conflict if the title wasn't "Careers For Women." Would
others be more satisfied if it was called "Profile on Careers" or some
such thing?
Whew. That was a tad long. I may not write much anymore, but when I do
it's a doooooozy. Please forgive me.
