:confused:I am trying to decide what I need to carry all my stuff around. Is a rolling backpack large enough? sturdy enough? what are you using?

muscle.....lots of muscle. jk.

I'm not sure yet. My classes start monday and I was wondering the same thing. I have a huge stack of books. I'm not sure they'll even fit in one of those rolling book bags. I wish they would save our backs and just put all of our books on an e-reader (kindle, ipad...whatnot).

Not sure on the design though. I keep designing different bags, but can't decide which combination of colors and fabrics I like best.

Eventually, I imagine that will be the only option and some folks will bemoan not being able to get a hard-copy. But it will be awhile yet.

For nursing texts, which function more like reference books, I think electronic media would be great. But for lengthy, straight reading assignments, my eyes bug out sooner reading from a screen than from a printed page.

I would try a North Face. They have a good varitety in my opinion. You can shop around on their site , Amazon, or Dick Sporting Goods. The have good back support. And considering that this is "back to school" time, you may catch a good deal.
