		<description>Chris,

They&#039;ll drive for 30 minutes just to hang out for an hour, and then head back to campus.  They&#039;ll come do yardwork with me...they&#039;ll help my wife with housework.  They&#039;ll offer to babysit for free so you can have a night out, and then hang out afterward.  They&#039;ll volunteer at the office...I could go on :).

Basically, if you show some interest, many students are more than willing to go out of their way to spend time with an adult who will shepherd and challenge them.

Let me know if you want to connect with a few :)

Grace,
Todd</description>
