    Excellence. No cluster required.
    Bright lights burst into this world and reveal it for what it is: a dark, soul-backward existence where struggle is the norm. These lights show the way and in their destined brightness, often are extinguished so soon. But not so soon that others haven’t mapped the way. Be curious, and question on.

    Rebecca Gould wrote a thoughtful article about Aaron Swartz in the Jan-Feb issue of *Academe*, with a focus on the ironies of his case–such as that “Among Swartz’s many remarkable qualities, the most remarkable was that he defended freedom of inquiry more powerfully and influentially than any scholar in recent memory, although he was not himself an academic.”
