...reality, life is unfair. And the fact is, as Harvard grads, life has been exceedingly fair to each and every one of us thus far. A Harvard diploma may prove a more maneuverable parachute than others, allowing us to land farther up the slope than our peers. But although we may enjoy a head-start, to stay ahead we’ll be forced to make the same compromises and fantastic exertions as everyone else. Five years from now, our Real World experiences will eclipse our Harvard experiences in importance, at least on our resumes...

...least one student with a prescription of Adderall, for legitimate reasons or otherwise, from whom they could illicitly purchase a couple pills to cope with that painful all-nighter.
