I notice that some of those who "like" this post knew Leland when. Isn't it great to see, even with all of this success and fame, he is the same man?!

University of Richmond Oh, boy! Gotta love depressing info about job prospects for college grads in 2010! So, here's more of it: http://ow.ly/D79x

The good news: Hiring for new college graduates is expected to hold steady in 2010. The bad: Hiring for new college graduates is expected to hold steady in 2010. That's after plummeting in 2009 by about 35 to 40 percent, according to a major annual survey of companies.

As a Richmond alum and career counselor at JMU, I have to wonder how this "depressing" post helps your audience. Ever considered having guest posts from staff at the CDC about how to better prepare for a job search in this economy? That might be more productive...

University of Richmond Here's a measure of success for MBA programs that is not thoroughly calculated or reported - quite simply, happiness: http://ow.ly/Bmij

Any sensible person would rather be happy than rich, although many people often confuse the two—business students among them. Those who choose to attend business school on the assumption that an M.B.A. will help them change jobs, make more money, and therefore be happier are very likely misinformed.
