While in college, the author _____

  • A. decided to become a professor of anthropology

  • C. felt that her teachers prevented her from studying what she wanted

Explanation

The passage traces how the author's college years, especially her anthropology studies, changed the way she saw her own upbringing — she came to see Eatonville with new understanding rather than simply choosing a career or rejecting her hometown, which is why (E) is the best fit; the other options describe narrower or unsupported outcomes.
