Helen could enter Radcliffe whenever she wanted,
but to feel more prepared, especially in math, she
tutored another year with Mr. Keith. She entered
Radcliffe in the fall of 1900, thinking all would now
be "beauty and light" in the "wonderland of the
Mind."
By the time she wrote this chapter, Helen had lost
her romanticism about college. The thing she
misses most is time to think and reflect. She
remarks wryly, "One goes to college to learn, it
seems, not to think." She cannot take notes in
class, because her hands are "busy listening."
Instead, she makes notes after class. She uses her
Braille typewriter to do her work, "so that the
professors have no difficulty in finding out how
little I know." Helen sometimes struggles with
feelings of jealousy toward her peers, who need
less time to study.
