Read for post-cert. program class… wrote too many papers.
Some good nuggets of information but lots of dryness in there :/

Okay textbook on a dry subject. HR is not the favorite part of my job and it didn't really give me any new insights other than have a good attorney!

Solid textbook and a good overview of human resources in an educational setting. Lots of transferable information is a plus.
