Survival Skills Library
A survival skills library for students is located in the Writing Center in the Baltimore Student Union, room 008. The library is a point of reference on topics such as: résumé writing; interviewing; career opportunities; strategies for surviving graduate school; the "two-body problem" (finding two good jobs in one geographic region); being a trainee and doing science; access for women, minorities, and people with disabilities to scientific careers; education, public policy, and statistics; mentoring; personal and professional development; responsible scientific conduct and ethics; teaching; grants; and scientific writing. A complete list of articles and books in the library follows. Call the Writing Center at 6-7725 for more information about the library.
