Travel where?
Well, last weekend students went to York, Nottingham, Amsterdam, Cologne, Dublin, Chester, Manchester, Leeds, Bristol, Bath, Oxford, Dover, Stockholm, Boston.
A whole bunch of us stayed here, where it’s not too bad, really.
Then, tomorrow, after the first big British Studies exam, lots of folks head to Ireland on the college-sponsored trip. Others fan out across Britain and Europe.
It does beat hanging out in the parking lot at WalMart. And it is part of the deal, a very good place, where all the faculty are brilliant, all the students are above average, and the energy never stops.
