...with its two towels and copious quantities of Kleenex: This was a place where you were meant to get better and get out so that the next sickly sophomore could take your place.

But like many other enterprises that sound funny and turn out to be incredibly earnest (recent Jim Carrey movies spring to mind), the Blue School is a very serious business...
