And when one lives Boston for the greater part of four years, one becomes moody, moody for the tactile chameleon. And one does not leave alone or empty handed. You might wake up some morning To the sound of something moving past your window in the wind, And if you're quick enough to rise You'll catch the fleeting glimpse of someone's fading shadow Out on the new horizon ... It's only me pursuing something I'm not sure of.. —P. GEOFFREY LENGSFELDER

The following photographic essay was conceived as a trilogy. The first part is devoted to the exploration of the collective consciousness, the spiritus mundi that influences us all. All has been said before, and will be said again, the characters, the place and the mood will not be entirely original, although to each of us it will be a unique experience. Look, feel and get involved: seek no answer for there is none—only experience —let the emotions sweep over and through you. The second part of the trilogy examines how those elements come together in the student, combined with environmental influences. The uniqueness of the New England autumn, the football games, crowds, a seeking to resolve that uneasy feeling that is doubt, looking anxiously towards the future. The final section makes no pretensions to enlighten; the camera is the observer—looking, spying, and capturing the boy-man creature as he participates and becomes the person of growth and change, for a student is not an ID number or a face in reflection—he is the University.
