In 10 years’ time, and definitely 15 or 20 or more, whether you went here or there, no one will probably say anything, unless they, too are an alum.

The daily worry for weeks, maybe months, deciding what is the best place – the best college or university – might only just be better than another option that is also quite wonderful.

It may not be here or there that has you concerned more. It might be instead that lifetime career choice that you think today, is the one. The One. Truth be told, from what most of us have found out, what you chose today, matters even less than what you choose to be doing then. In your future. What matters more is how you get to where you are, each and every day.
