What's a good substitute for a backpack?

My son can't use his backpack to and from class. It's not allowed and they have five minutes in between class. So he carries all of his books around all day. Is there an invention out there that could be used to carry books but is not a bag/backpack?

Update:

"Not to carry it"...I meant

Well I am a student at a school that doesn't allow backpacks. Tell him to use his locker strategically, and that carrying 30 pounds won't kill him. I carry about 50 or so pounds between classes.

I was in the same boat in school. Sorry, we have to just carry the books. It has to do with security. They're worried that phones, ipods, gum, food, and weapons of mass destruction could be hidden in our bags. If your son tries using anything else to carry he'll get in trouble most likely. Unfortunate due to the loss of trust corporations give students today.

He just needs to learn shortcuts, what is most practical to take to class, and how to utilize his locker.
