Our bus option at WKU, Winter Term almost over here, Spring Term is coming up.

I had not thought of Winter Term for awhile. Some people like it though, and it works for them. Others don't like it at all.

My husband reminded me that Spring Term/Semester was almost here. The campus will really fill up then. Right now there are many empty parking spots.

We have at least one new parking lot for Western that are not on campus. Commuters can park, then take a bus to school. I like this option. When I first went to college, I helped make this happen as part of Student Government. We thought it would be a great idea.

Now the bus goes to WKU, and also to the Community College. I think the bus system is great for all ages, and can really help going up the famous hill we have at WKU. It's a pretty steep hill.

Do you have a bus system? Does it work well? It really helps here, because there are not unlimited parking spaces on campus. Some days it's hard to find a parking spot. You need to come really early to get a spot in some places.

I wonder if other campuses have a bus system option. If you do, leave a comment.

Do you have time to read? You can make time. How I do...

Yes, nontraditional students are VERY busy. Do you make time to read?

Is this you??? haha....

Even in-between semesters. Some are working full or part time. Others are trying to get signed up for classes, or catch up on needed work at home, OR are taking a well-deserved break.

I am not in school right now. But I'm thinking of doing that (again). But whether or not I am in school, I make time for reading both fiction and non-fiction books. Sometimes it is not a LOT of time.... but I try to read every day. NOT just a textbook either.

Why? It's fun. Seriously. It's also good to "escape" from the pressures of everyday life.

I'm reading a Dean Koontz book that I thought I would NOT enjoy at first. But then I started really liking it. I'm about 2/3 through with it so far. It's Icebound.

Here is my link to it on Amazon:


The one I have has a different picture on the cover. It is really good.

List YOUR book favorites or what you are reading as a comment if you wish. I will put this posting on the Nontrad Facebook page too.

Go, Nontrads! Have a great Winter Break or Winter Session at school too. :-)

Bernie Sander's plan to make college tuition free and debt free is a GREAT idea.

We could be learning so much more... and NOT racking up so much debt...

And it would be GREAT if everyone who wanted to could go back to school.

Those who ARE in school right now, some are revving up for Winter Term. Others are taking a well-deserved break.

If you are thinking of going back to school, by all means investigate at your local Community College or University. There MIGHT be some financial aid there. But it is not guaranteed.

Wouldn't it be great if people did not have to worry about HUGE student debt? It would make this kind of decision a lot easier.

Bernie Sanders believes that "It is Time to Make College Tuition Free and Debt Free." I think this would be great! I really like this idea.

Here is a link telling more about that:

Love it.
