Last weekend we drove to Olympia to drop off Nik at his new digs at Evergreen College. It's a fascinating, alternative sort of college. He takes one course a quarter, and his choice for the first two quarters is one about war. Spring quarter he'll be taking a some sort of travel course and he will live on a boat for awhile. It's supposedly the second largest campus in the country because it's set in the midst of a 1000-acre state forest. The housing is like summer camp -- cottages set in the woods. However, the campus buildings look like something out of the former Soviet republics -- grey concrete. He has a full week of orientation before classes start. We're dying to hear from him, but have heard nothing thus far. We'll keep you posted.
