...circus is just not where I am headed. That's okay, I assure myself--no one is expected to know the precise academic and professional course his or her life will take at such early stages in the game.

But amid the red-bricked buildings of Cambridge, we are not only expected but required to predict what we see ourselves doing for a while, if not forever...
