High Schools and colleges are now well underway for 2016 – except for those weird joints that operate on the quarter system or some such nonsense. Everybody knows that proper school runs from September or so to June or so. And, no student worth his weight in pencils is ever really happy about going back to school, or so.
To cheer them up — or to make a student’s transition easier — we put together a few gift ideas. Some will make school life easier; some will make it more fun; and, some will encourage a student to forget about school altogether.

There’s a mix of price levels here and a blend of sensible and not so sensible gift ideas. If you know a student or a student yourself, dig in there. If you don’t know a student or hate young people, maybe buy a speaker.
