A little excerpt from the piece:

“…We wanted to give any graduate a moment to think deliberately about the road ahead and what they want to accomplish. The book asks questions of the reader—about what they hope to use their time to do and what values they’ll develop, evolving to bigger questions about how they act in the world and who they want to become and what they will achieve.

It also connected with the sense that a lot of people look down on other people because of the type of work they do or the education they’ve received.
