After reading all of the entries (3 total), the winner is Pam in Colorado’s post! HUGE thanks to everyone who participated and made this happen. I am sorry it took so long to finally wrap up!
The judges (my roommates and I) loved all of the entries. Kristen, from BizChicksRule, wrote a magnificent post and […]
Alright, as you all know, I have this crazy cool contest going down called the “We Don’t Need No Education” contest. You have until Tuesday to submit something! I’m looking forward to seeing some of your results! I kind of wanted to jump in and throw forward a few ideas.

I know countless people who switched majors […]
So you’re applying for colleges and you don’t know what to look for. You applied to your state schools and every other outlying school you can imagine - and hey, what do you know, you got accepted into all of them! Well before you choose the most prestigious of schools, let’s talk things […]
