A rolling suitcase....really???

[OgreAchiever]

I've seen a few posts recommending a rolling suitcase for use instead of a bookbag, etc. Are we talking carry-on size? What dimentions? I'm starting an ADN program in the fall, but I already have a BA degree and a master's degree in other subjects, so I do not think I will have to be taking a bunch of classes other than anatomy, physiology, etc. aside from my nursing classes/clinicals. I know that my nursing classes require a ton of textbooks, but will I be toting them all to class all the time? I just don't want to buy something that will be too big, but I don't want to underestimate the load I'll be lugging around, either.

Thanks!

I wish I could leave my rolling backpack at home but unfortunately, I cannot find digital versions of my textbooks and I've looked on amazon, barnes & noble, cheggs, etc...

My school is suppose to give us laptops with our E-books on them so hopefully I wont need one!

I don't think I've ever had a teacher make us bring a book to school (except once when a teacher wanted to go through the drug guide with us in term 1 to point out some important bits). I haven't had clinical instructors ask me to bring textbooks either - there are books on the unit/the computers. I'm going into 3rd year btw.

My backpack only has a clipboard, pencil bag, water, and my lunch. My laptop too if a class is really boring (but lately I have been getting by with my cellphone).
