Have you ever had doubts about a student who claims to have no driver's
license or no vehicle?  It happens to me on occasion.

Here's one who lives a good 25 miles out in the rural part of the county.
He says on his Res Q. that he doesn't have a driver's license (his old
one from Calif expired; he's lived here since last August) nor does he
have a car.  Yet somehow he works every day in Bellingham.  (He's applied 
for Fall 97.)  I don't think the bus service to that remote area is very 
good, if it even exists.

I know we've been told that in such cases, it's not up to us to do
detective work to make sure an applicant isn't lying, but sometimes 
curiosity gets the best of me.
