...diminutive (5’2) Louisiana Tech transfer averaged 8.0 ppg and 2.1 assists per game last year, but her most noteworthy statistic is a scintillating .429 three-point percentage...
...trouble with books is that they're too low-tech. Like all wood-pulp devices, they have no built-in search engine. Sure, you can look up stuff in the index. But who has the time? Certainly not the generation that is growing up with Google. According to a 2001 Pew Research Center study, 71% of online teens rely "mostly on the Internet" for their homework.

He read his life story on the houses and storefronts here, in this now-bustling, once backwoods home of Virginia Tech. Some of those stories are locked in the collective memories of those who spent time with him. Others, more rarely told, are forever lost. Such is the tragedy of oral history...
