A question for students! :)

The reason I mentioned the ruck is simple......troops carry around a lot of weight, and they are specifically designed for use over long periods of time. I'd rather have my back intact than make a fashion statement, though some of the newer rucks don't look bad, either.

Indeed, I'd much rather have my backpack as well. And that bag you mentioned does look very durable and very functional. That way, I wouldn't have to buy several over the course of my college days. The only reason I mentioned the looks thing is (not for a fashion statement) but I don't get to treat myself to anything really nice. I just was hoping that maybe (although it doesn't have to be, it's not a requirement or anything) that I could get something with a nice little design or something.

That's easy to solve - get a good rucksack, and a couple of fabric markers! Instant personalization!

I got my backpack three years ago at TJ Maxx for about $10, and I love the design on it. I still use it now for college.
Here's the only picture I have of it right now. (the last picture)
