Let’s make this clear—the ship is not sinking. But it’s also definitely not yet seaworthy, and that is not a good sign for Harvard women’s soccer. While some teams would be satisfied just to stay afloat, the Crimson was expected to be exactly the opposite. A 2008 season that resulted in a share of the coveted Ivy title wasn’t nearly enough for a hungry Harvard squad. There was more work to be done.

We became nomadic geographically, as well as morally, religiously and ethically. And after all that happened, there was a second sort of seismic change, instituted by the technological revolution at the turn of the century. It's changed the pace and cadence of our days dramatically. We spend much more time with screens and electronic devices and mediated contacts than we do in face-to-face contact with other human beings...
