Before college, in pure adolescence, the world is pretty black and white. Yes and no. Right and wrong. But it’s like the second you arrive onto campus, so sure of who you’ve been the past 18 years, so grown up — in come the greys. The maybes. The moral dilemmas. Oh, ish.
Because as it turns out, college isn’t the answer to all of our problems. In fact, for most of us, it’s the beginning to all of our biggest questions. And whether it's “How do I know that chicken is fully cooked?” or “What am I going to do with the rest of my life?” you have to wear all of the hats. You have to exist at the delicate intersection of childlike wonder and adult responsibility.
When you’re at the cusp of everything you have been, everything you are and everything you could be — what will you do with that time? What versions of yourself will you shed? Cling to? As we stumble through young adulthood, what will catch us when we fall and ground us when we fly?
