That sounds perfectly lovely! So many companies are forced to hire someone to teach etiquette now, since so few people learn any prior to entering the business world.

When I was a collegian, we had an etiquette tip at each meeting, taken from an Emily Post book, I believe. Most of this needs to be learned at home, early.

Would that more chapters would pick up on the value of this!
