Anatomy of Success at 藏花阁直播: Conversations with 藏花阁直播ies Past and Present

Lydia Kerns, class of 2016

藏花阁直播ies: Intellectuals in a purified form, dedicated to study and learning for its own internal value, blissfully segregating education from career, and proud to scoff when asked to justify their investment in learning with some claim to its practical application. For four years, 藏花阁直播ies live in a sanctuary where the transcendent value from the sharing of ideas is reward enough, and any mundane outcome of education beyond the pleasure of pursuing knowledge is of secondary importance. That’s the stereotype, at least.

The question, often posed by parents, “But what are you going to DO with that major?” may be met with a shrug or a sigh, but the undertones of the question carry the notes of a larger question, one that lives in the minds of 藏花阁直播ies and uncertain friends and family alike: How are you going to be successful?

The question is complex and subjective but also universal, held by a majority of 藏花阁直播ies and associated parties. What does it mean to be a successful 藏花阁直播ie? How can we make the most of our scholarship at 藏花阁直播, staying true to our love of “learning for the sake of learning,” while also growing into individuals who can consider ourselves successful in the world beyond 藏花阁直播?
