Many a lost lad, however, has second thoughts about going to the University Health Service psychiatrists. They fear, and with some justification, that a record of their weak moments will work against them when applying to graduate school and for future jobs.

She developed acute anemia and was so weak that she went to the park in a wheelchair until she was six. She remembers Vanessa as "simply smashing," Corin as "incredibly brilliant," and her mother as "the mother of all the mothers...
