...coat and tie, forgoing the sweaters and blue jeans that were his pre-Inaugural uniform in Plains. To ward off the chill, Carter usually sits in an apricot-colored wing chair near a crackling fire. His first appointment every morning, at 8, is with Brzezinski.

At many of the schools they include courses (sometimes for credit, sometimes not) that would not be considered academically appropriate during the regular school year. At Smith College, for example, plumbing is on the January bill of fare, while St. Lawrence University in upstate New York offers ski conditioning and fly tying.
