Shelter for the brain in the rain.
Pop culture and broadcast media is a dirty cloud hovering above a little human who found a shelter under a book tent. That’s because reading a book can be a little cozy harbor for those lost in the storm of BS coming from the screens.

School.
Like journalism, school is a special kind of institution with a kind of public responsibility.
