  In College, Small Improvements Mean Greater Success
by Bob Roth - Aug, 2008
When I was in college, I took a class in Industrial Psychology. In it, we studied the concept of Just Noticeable Differences. As we conducted experiments with weights, light, speed and sound, we found that it took a difference of approximately 15% before we noticed the change.

  Your Parent Association Plays An Important Role In Student Employment
by Bob Roth - Aug, 2008
Somewhere along the line, college parents and parent associations have dropped the ball. They have completely ignored their responsibilities for successful student employment.

However, to greatly increase student employment success, parents can and sh...

  Pomp With Circumstance
by Barbara Wulf, MS, CPCC - Jul, 2008
I’m packing my suitcase to attend my daughter’s college graduation. It seems like yesterday when she was deciding which college to attend and now, four years have flown by. During her college life, she would call with snippets of happenings about her classes, long hours at the library, writing a big paper, summer job prospects, preparing for study abroad, and the like. I’ll miss those conversations. Now, it’s time to step out ...
