1) As I write this, families, friends, and other loved ones are gathered nearby for Northwestern University's commencement. Billie Jean King is the commencement speaker, and now I kind of wish I'd gone over to hear her speak. Oops! If you're a new graduate starting your first post-grad job, you might feel like you're ready to take the working world by storm. Before you do, these unspoken rules of the workplace might help you navigate your new workplace with a little more savvy.
2) I still haven't seen Wonder Woman, but I think I might be the only one. Oprah even threw a Wonder Woman themed party! We know there are a bunch of cool women writing comic books today, but did you know that Trina Robbins was the first woman to write Wonder Woman back in 1986?
3) Little kids have gotten really into Wonder Woman, too. Have you seen this list of Wonder Woman moments from her students a kindergarten teacher sent to director Patti Jenkins? Our favorite:
"Seven girls playing together during recess on Tuesday, saying that since they all wanted to be Wonder Woman they had agreed to be Amazons and not fight but work together to defeat evil."
4) I loved reading From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler growing up, and the first time I visited the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and I made to check out some of the works mentioned in the book. The book came out 50 years ago, and this is the story behind the story.
5) The story of the fight to create a National Women's History Museum, including the question of whether we should have one or not.
