...failed" at the simple life in the bus. But she turned the front den into a classroom to home school Noah and the other kids. When they studied horses, they read Black Beauty and went riding real ones. When they were learning about Indians, she crafted a cardboard diorama including pretend deerskin stretched across twigs. To show off musical instruments, they paraded as a marching band in front of the video camera so Daddy could see them. She insisted on buying extra workbooks to expand their home-schooling curriculum. "You make it difficult on yourself," Rusty says he told...

The UC (specifically, the CLC) has struggled in the past in providing airport shuttles during recess and cardboard boxes during move-out. To continue to leave services in the hands of a few inexperienced representatives with little business acumen is tantamount to reckless abandonment of student welfare. We continue to encourage the UC to look for ways to outsource these services to student groups designed to carry...
