'S e lèanag bhrèagha a tha seo aig cridh an oilthigh air a chuairteachadh le leabharlann agus togalaichean a tha gach cuid àlainn agus eachdraidheil. Tha Magaidh ag innse beagan mu eachdraidh an oilthigh agus cuideachd ag innse mun obair aice fhèin a rannsachadh beul-aithris. Tha i cuideachd ag innse mar a chur i seachad beagan ùine aig Sabhal Mòr Ostaig san Eilean Sgitheanach agus mar a tha i fhathast ga ionndrainn. Tha i a' dèanamh inneas air cho cruaidh agus a tha beatha oileanach aig Harvard.

She tells Maureen how she is studying folklore and how she also studied at Sabhal Mòr Ostaig in Skye for a period of time. She also describes student life at Harvard as being much hard work and study.
