New year's resolutions--for others.(THE LAST LAUGH)

At this time of the year, it's always tempting to make New Year's Resolutions, as if writing them down will automatically make one a better person.

As a younger woman, I tried it a few times. No matter how much I wrote about them, nothing happened. They never got etched into my brain, so they were forgotten and I didn't feel pressured to do anything about them.

Since it's much easier to make resolutions for other people, that's what I've decided to do.

This month a national leader will be taking an oath "to faithfully execute the office of President of the United States," so it's a good place to start.

We assume he really wants to serve the 57% of the nation's students in higher education who are women--and those women on campus whose job it is to teach and make policy for them.

With an eye toward possible retaliation (including an IRS audit, identity theft, health problems and home fore-closure), WIHE offers these suggested resolutions for him and other campus leaders.
