Book excerpt: A host of state rankings in the past few years has continually put Utah as one of the worst states in the nation for women. For example, a New York Post article put Utah as one of five places in the world women should not visit. In 2014, Utah was ranked as the worst state for women on the "10 Worst States for Women" list in 24/7Wallst.com. And, Utah did not fare well in the Center for American Progress report, "The State of Women in America: A 50-State Analysis of How Women are Faring Across the Nation." Personally, I think Utah is a great state for women, but it is clear that we can make improvements.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is Utah a good place for women to start and run businesses? You may be misled if you rely on what the media has been reporting the past few years about women in Utah. A host of state rankings has continually put Utah as one of the worst states in the nation for women. For example, Utah did not fare well in the WalletHub's recent "2015's Best and Worst States for Women's Equality."1 Utah was also included in the New York Post's "5 Places Women Shouldn't Spend Their Travel Dollars,"2 and in 2014 Utah was ranked as the worst state for women on the "10 Worst States for Women" list at 24/7Wallst.com.3 In addition, Utah did poorly in the Center for American Progress report, "The State of Women in America: A 50-State Analysis of How Women are Faring Across the Nation."4 Although it is clear that we need to improve the representation of women in leadership and decision-making roles, in the gender wage gap, and in funding for programs and efforts that support the well-being of Utah women, 5 these rankings were based on limited criteria. However, one area not included in these criteria that would have strengthened Utah rankings is women and entrepreneurship

Download or read book The WPA Guide to Utah written by Federal Writers' Project and published by Trinity University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 531 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 1930s in the United States, the Works Progress Administration developed the Federal Writers’ Project to support writers and artists while making a national effort to document the country’s shared history and culture. The American Guide series consists of individual guides to each of the states. Little-known authors—many of whom would later become celebrated literary figures—were commissioned to write these important books. John Steinbeck, Saul Bellow, Zora Neale Hurston, and Ralph Ellison are among the more than 6,000 writers, editors, historians, and researchers who documented this celebration of local histories. Photographs, drawings, driving tours, detailed descriptions of towns, and rich cultural details exhibit each state’s unique flavor. Utah, a state which is well known for its distinct religious history, is thoroughly examined in this WPA Guide, with an entire chapter on the relationship between the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the state of Utah. The Beehive State, also known for its natural beauty and plentiful resources, also contains several pictures of the Great Salt Lake and mountainous desert landscape as well as an interesting essay on mining.
