Homeless teen bikes 6 hours to get to college, sleeps in tent | WSB-TV
I thought this was a pretty amazing story. This young man is homeless and biked to his new college's campus early to live out of a tent and job hunt until the dorms opened. Props to the kid for his drive to improve his life, and to the community for rallying to give him the boost he needs.

I once knew a homeless guy who slept in the college's swimming pool maintenance room.
