How did Helen display her passion for Radcliffe College?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Helen was excited and happy to get admission in Radcliffe College. Her dream of studying at Radcliffe had been realised and this gave her immense pleasure. But she delayed her admission because everyone advised her to study for another year before joining college. She began her studies with eagerness, however, she started feeling disillusioned and realised that there were many disadvantages of going to college. She felt that the greatest disadvantage was the lack of time to think and reflect on what they were taught. The second year at Radcliffe College was the happiest year in Helen's life because she was studying subjects that especially interested her, like economics, Elizabethan literature, Shakespeare under Professor George L. Kittredge and the History of Philosophy under Professor Josiah Royce.
