Why Your Kid Isn't Going to Princeton and a Bunch of Other Top Schools Many of us likely forgot one of the most striking things about the last great college sports scandal - not the illegal early recruiting stings, not the under-the-table payments to incoming athletes and their parents, and not even the many perverts caught in the locker and training rooms.

Work | � | | WorkLeadership in a Politically Charged Age Why are discussions of politically charged issues often so fraught in the workplace today? How can managers ensure that they arent caught flat-footed by the conflict these issues sometimes create among employees? Not long ago such questions lay at the periphery of corporate life. But today theyre central, according to the authors. In recent decades weve witnessed a surge in the proportion of people whose identities are deeply informed by their political allegiances and who believe they need to bring those identities to work. The result is often conflict that can spiral dangerously out of control. This is a new and rapidly evolving problem, and most leaders are ill-equipped to cope with it. The authors provide a framework to help managers understand when and how political conflict can become corrosive, and they explain how to navigate it more effectively and even harness its potential to strengthen the workplace.

WorkMatt Fitzpatrick's first major win, Phil Mickelson and the biggest takeaways from the 2022 U.S. Open Despite the adulation, Mickelson had to face a stark reality this week. His days of playing competitive golf against the best players in the world are over. Mickelson shot 11 over in the first two rounds, his fifth-worst 36-hole total in his major career. While we might have been expecting too much from a 52-year-old who hadn\'t played a competitive round in the U.S. since late January, his best days on the course are clearly in the rearview mirror.

WorkTracking Fear on Wall Street In general I agree that competition brings down prices, but in this case, the connection is hard to see. I don’t imagine that the two groups would compete by lowering the prices they charge the TV networks, tournament sponsors and so on. In fact, the competition between them is resulting in much bigger payouts to golfers. I’d expect the golfers to splash out their newfound wealth on cars and boats. This could be a weird case where competition raises inflation.
