' behind every man is a good woman ' should be updated to read ' by the side of every man is a good woman. ' — mrs. Christie r. tanr the career woman is a unique creation of our society, someone for whom new doors of free- dom and opportunity are opening constantly, she can bring to hen A ork not only the spiritual equipmient of a woman, but also the intellectual training that used to be reserved for men. with- out either denying or overemphasizing her fem- inity, she must learn to handle her new privileges and influence, i believe that she can maintain her businesslike efficiency while practicing the com- passion and grace that a man may tend to forget or be afraid to show. — miss karen gearreald agnes scott college, 13BB ph.d. candidate, harvard university what about the millions of women past and present who are virtually nameless ? each one has lived and is living up to her own feeling of responsi- bility in her life, achieving goals with talent, courage, and love, such is Vi oman ' s greatest in- fluence on society -the fulfill- ment of her own ideals. — miss Janice burr therell high school atlanta. in my opinion, the days in which we could attribute certain societal influences and reflections to one of the sexes are in the past — if, in fact, they ever existed ex- cept in the imagination, affirmative influences and re- flections occur when dedicated, rightly motivated peo- ple participate generously in family, religious, community and business life. — miss susan k. spruiell community relations manager southern bell telephone and telegraph company i ' m A orking for the federal government where by law women have to be treated equally on the job with men. despite this, each work day i find myself in all kinds of plays- guerilla tactics-and harassments-to fight for my right to be something besides a secretary, it ' s in- credibly hard to overcome decades of habit; A omen are supposed to do the typing and filing, i sometimes think if i get called the office ' girl ' - meaning secretary- one more time I ' ll scream, i think i now really understand what it ' s like for a black man to be called ' boy ' ... i see the educated woman ' s unique responsibility as this; do anything you have to do to make the business world accept what you have to offer, this is by no means the only way women should influence our society; but if vje don ' t meet the challenge in man ' s realm, we ' ll be on the defensive for god knows how long, — miss felicia guest agnes scott college, 1SBB
