I knew that they might track me if I visited it, but I went to an Internet cafe and checked it out, and sure enough, they had loads of information on me about where I'd already been.

Students here and at other universities have direct and interactive access to libraries, educators, and each other, all of which are an irreplaceable part of a complete education.
