self-directed
I’m new to ‘self directed study,’ it’s a construction I’ve never known. It’s kind of a faustian bargain that resembles another self-paced activity—treading water. The program’s like an immersive plunge in deep, choppy, informational seas.

Of her dignity and the importance
Of her private functions straight
And domestic domain ultimate
