Why Women Still Can’t Have It All?

Anne-Marie Slaughter,the Bert G. Kerstetter ’66 University Professor of Politics and International Affairs at Princeton University and was formerly Dean of Princeton’s Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs and director of policy planning at the State Department has penned a new essay in the Atlantic that begins with the following quote:

“It’s time to stop fooling ourselves, says a woman who left a position of power: the women who have managed to be both mothers and top professionals are superhuman, rich, or self-employed. If we truly believe in equal opportunity for all women, here’s what has to change.”

I think this is a good discussion to have. Read the article here and/or listen to an interview with the author on NPR’s Fresh Air  here.
