Columbia era una primera elección excelente, afirmó, ningún problema con eso, el programa de estudios era uno de los mejores del país, pero también debía considerar otras posibilidades, Amherst y Oberlin, por ejemplo, instituciones pequeñas y aisladas que ofrecían un ambiente más tranquilo y con menos distracciones que Nueva York, más propicio al esfuerzo necesario para concentrarse en los estudios, pero si deseaba asistir a una universidad grande, por qué no detenerse a pensar en Stanford y Berkeley, cuánto le gustaría tenerlo con ella en California durante los cuatro años siguientes, y cualquiera de esos sitios era tan bueno como Columbia, si no mejor, pero Ferguson repuso que estaba completamente decidido, Nueva York o nada, y si lo rechazaban en Columbia, iría a la Universidad de Nueva York, que admitía a casi todos los solicitantes, y si algo iba mal allí, su diploma del instituto le permitiría matricularse en cursos de la New School, que no rechazaba a nadie, y ése era el plan, le explicó, sólo tres posibilidades, todas ellas en Nueva York, y cuando su tía le preguntó por qué tenía que ser Nueva York cuando había tantos otros sitios más atractivos para elegir, Ferguson rebuscó en su memoria y extrajo las palabras que Amy le había dicho el día en que se encontraron por primera vez: porque, le dijo, Nueva York es todo.
Columbia was an excellent first choice, she said, no problem with that, the undergraduate program was one of the strongest in the country, but she also wanted him to consider other options, Amherst and Oberlin, for example, small, isolated schools where the atmosphere would be calmer and less distracting than in New York, more conducive to the rigors of focused study, but if he had his heart set on a big university, why not give some thought to Stanford and Berkeley, how dearly she would love to have him out in California with her for the next four years, and either one of those places was every bit as good as Columbia if not better, but Ferguson told her that his mind was made up, it was New York or nothing, and if Columbia turned him down, he would go to NYU, which accepted nearly everyone who applied, and if something went wrong there, his high school diploma would allow him to enroll in courses at the New School, which turned down no one, and that was the plan, he said, just three possibilities, all of them in New York, and when his aunt asked him why it had to be New York when there were so many more attractive places to choose from, Ferguson reached back into his memory and pulled out the words Amy had spoken to him on the first day they met—because, he said, New York is it.
