I really like the article on building a team, a network of helpers. It's like a support group. I don't know anyone who doesn't need the support of friends or family. What I'm trying to say is, I concur with what they say.
i love how in the choosing a graduate school article the author's spell check changed "grad" to "grade"! at least i think this is a mistake...
Jonathan - That's why we led off with it! There's really no way to be successful in today's world without a strong support group.
Becca - you're right, let's hope grade schools and grad schools are not the same! Otherwise all future grad students can look forward to some easy lessons.
