rsvp notice on website

To help explain the situation to the WiSE participants, how about this website:

http://www.duke.edu/web/wise/please_rsvp.html

I'd link to it from the main page; perhaps under the next event title (Something like Please RSVP!)

Another website update

Updated the front page event to our next event, Balancing career and family.

Changed left-hand side links to SWE so that they link to the Duke SWE chapter and not the national.

Added a NY times article on advancement of women in academics to the readings page.

Updated the contacts page to include Carrie as the Mentoring Program Coordinator. And updated the rest of our contact info to include our departments and relevant phone numbers (though I don't have one for Tong).

Created a new link in the upper navigational toolbar for "Mentoring", that directs to the mentoring home page.

Changed the upper navigational drop down menu to direct to "Reading material" instead of "Previous Reading material".

Changed upper and side navigational menu so that when clicking on "Reading" it takes you directly to a list of gender issues articles instead of the defunct reading group page. Problem: the file is still called "previous_books.htm". Not exactly accurate, but who cares.

Posted the women's initiative update article posted to the list by Claire.
