Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 You’re doing it wrong. But here’s the thing: you can’t go back. You can’t change your major. You can’t change your mind. This degree is a done deal and there’s no going back. I’m not going to tell you never to lie about your college plans, because it’s perfectly safe to do so. But don’t do it for the reaction, because you’ll only make yourself feel worse when the real truth comes out. If you are absolutely certain you want to go to law school, then go for it! But know that there will come a day when you look at this degree and think, I didn’t even enjoy being in college for this. You may regret this decision later—a lot. And if you are TRULY undecided, then it’s best to be honest. What if you change your mind. What if you decide to take a different major. Here’s what we can be sure of: we always regret something we didn’t do instead of something we did do. #2 The linear path still exists. The problem is that it’s the wrong path. It’s the path of the past, not the future. And if you want to be successful in the future, you have to be willing to think beyond the linear career path. -> The linear path between your major and career is an illusion. The real path is channeling the deep value of your academic and life experiences and taking them beyond traditional thinking. #3 The linear career path still exists. The problem is that it’s the wrong path. It’s the path of the past, not the future. And if you want to be successful in the future, you have to be willing to think beyond it. #4 Don’t lie about your college plans, because you’ll only make yourself feel worse when the real truth comes out.

Transforming Scholarship is a user-friendly work of practical guidance and inspiration for supporting a student's interest in a Women's Studies degree. Berger and Radeloff use empirical evidence to help students with the major barriers they face when exploring Women's Studies: the negative response a student often faces when announcing to the world that he or she is interested in Women’s Studies; and the perceived lack of employment and career options that supposedly comes with graduating with a Women's Studies degree. This book will support students to think critically about what they know, how to demonstrate what they know, and how to prepare for life both personally and professionally after the degree. Transforming Scholarship is a practical guide for students interested in women’s and gender studies that targets advanced undergraduates who have a firm connection to the discipline. This book is ideal for women’s and gender capstone courses, and for those who have finished their degree and need a resource to assist in conceptualizing the answers to the question "What’s next?" This second edition of Transforming Scholarship focuses on areas that undergraduates might want integrate into their women’s and gender studies education: study abroad, civic engagement projects, internships, independent studies, and honors theses. It includes exercises to help flesh out talents, passions, and skills, and how to link them to employment, information about the diversity of employment opportunities (and further professional training) available, and a plan to help prepare for graduation. It also delves into how to live a feminist life after graduation, including activism after college, building and sustaining feminist communities, and feminist parenting. The authors have also added new "Point of View" boxes throughout the book, where scholars focus on contemporary issues and deepen a student’s understanding of the organizations and individuals fighting to end sexist oppression.
