description: When Bob's wife died in childbirth, he needed more than part-time help with the baby. As an English professor, he couldn't really afford that. A little creative thinking solved the problem. He could offer room and board, and a little spending money, which appealed to one freshman girl. The only rub then was that both he and she had classes. It would take two part-time nannies to make things work. One of those girls knew a trick to get a baby to stop crying. She offered it a real nipple and then slipped it a bottle. That led to bonding, and bonding led them to wish they could supply real milk to the baby. It turned out ... they could. But they needed a little help to get things started. That's where the professor came in.
