Are you sure that's the entire point? I went to a school where people that got one-on-one were either called teacher's pets or idiots. And then they got beat up. And it wasn't even their fault that they were behind 'cause they had to miss a lot of school when they were "sick" sick. So you see how homework takes up a lot of free time?

It was also a school on a different planet! And everybody's from different places and times. How are supposed to know if the shit we're learning is right or if it's other shit that's right?
That would be okay. As long as it's okay with everyone. Ben's really good at learning on his own. And Richie and Bill too.
