lisa barnard joins us. what's going on? >> reporter: well, i spoke to a bart deputy chief with the police department at bart. he was speaking to me from where he said he was at, at crime scene. he tells me that about an hour and 15 minutes ago, two people were killed by a bart train on the bart track. he will not yet confirm whether those are civilians or whether those are bart employees. i said: who was driving the train? and he said to me, quote: someone who is qualified to drive a train. it's not a union driver. they are on strike. so what we think may have been happening here is that bart has kept some trains running. they say that they keep them running for service and for maintenances during this strike, perhaps to keep the tracks in working order. they certainly are entitled to run their own trains. so it's unclear who was behind the wheel of the train. we know it was not a striking worker. we do know, though, that two people were killed and that there are investigators on the scene right now trying to learn more abo

come to barnard and recruit here. [laughter] but employers are very conscious of not having enough women. so i think in general it actually does still work a little bit to your advantage to be a smart, hard working young woman because employers are looking for that. and i think they'll, you know, overlook the engagement ring on your finger. after that point, so once you've gotten in the front door, i think, first of all, it's really important to think about as much as you can at point in your life -- at this point in your life what kind of careers are going to give you the kind of flexibility that you want. because it is easier to juggle life and work at some jobs than others. it just is. and, again, it's not always very popular to say, but i think it's really important to say. and if you look -- medicine's an interesting field. there's a lot of women doctors, successful women doctors. over the 30 or 40 years that women have been in medicine in serious numbers, they've shifted in terms of what subfields they're in. tu
