Kudos to him on his schooling and dedication and undoubtedly hard work.
And back on topic, he should report the the bike stolen at the very least and start looking on craigslist for a new bike (it's winter and people are getting rid of stuff). How much are you looking to spend? Is he into fixed/ss? What type of riding?
He had it registered with the school, and he reported it. He just needs a bike to get around campus, but not fixed. I'm thinking either an inexpensive BD bike, or maybe a folder. I don't want to spend too much, since it seems like anything shiny will get stolen. His bike was seven years old, had no grips, and his cats had destroyed the seat. Some prize.
