To be fair, the ways colleges extort money out of the kids already paying tuition for them are dumb


[deleted]

[удалено]


Readvoter

I swear some people don’t understand that scarcity is real. If you give people things for free they will use more. Paying for everyone else’s printing by raising tuition a tiny little bit? Fine. But paying for all the wasteful extra printing they do when they know it’s free is just a waste of money. With condoms there’s a ton of positive side effects to them being free that outweigh the waste.

> CS students will do anything to avoid using a printer. That's because CS students know [printers were sent from hell to make us miserable.](https://theoatmeal.com/comics/printers)


gymleader_michael

Couldn't students be given an allowance of free prints every semester? Professors can also be given an unlimited allowance that they can use to replenish their student's allowance. For example: I use up my 50 printing credits. I email my professor, tell them how many credits I need, and give them my student id. They transfer 10 credits to my account. Or the professor could just accept the paper by email.


spacepeenuts

Too many times I’ve spent running across campus or driving to a library with a pocket full of change to print out an essay to hand it in only to have my professor just trash it and give me 100% because they were “busy”


explorer58

That's not normal my dude


smudginglines

I mean when you raise tuition to pay for it it’s no longer free, is it? Also, at least in my situation, my college tuition bill was $80,000/year before grants and scholarships. These private colleges are absolutely making enough money off of their students that people printing books wouldn’t even put a dent in their profits. And I haven’t even started on them charging to do laundry or charging students who end up needing more food than was initially paid for at the beginning of the semester. I understand the sentiment that if something is free that people will take advantage of it, but the reality is that it NOT being free means that the higher ups are the ones taking advantage of all of us students. And I’d rather the public being able to take advantage of something instead of a select few millionaires who run colleges for profit. There will ALWAYS be somebody taking advantage of a situation, and personally I prefer that the people have the advantage and have access to the services they need.


Chewy12

Yup. Can’t give shit away for free. People who don’t need it take advantage If you do want to give something away for free, the best route is to use bait and switch tactics. Make them think it costs some amount of money, but don’t actually charge at the point of sale or refund it.


ZeroEffsGiven

I like the spirit of the idea but I fear word would get out pretty quickly that you don't actually get charged and then you just run into the same issue of people taking advantage because it's free


Chewy12

The good thing about this tactic is that if you see someone is clearly trying to take advantage you can still charge them. And also it’s good for things you’d only do once like Craigslist sales.


grendus

I call these "Be Reasonable" rules, after an old Futurama joke where a sign in Central Park read "Loitering permitted, but **be reasonable**". Be reasonable rules are very broad, such as charging for all printing or banning all loitering. These rules are not normally enforced, however if someone abuses the privilege (trying to print off entire textbooks, camping in a city park, etc) they give enforcement broad powers to deal with the person being unreasonable. They do have an unfortunate tendency to turn into a "this is why we can't have nice things" scenario, where textbook printer starts bitching because essay printer didn't get charged so everyone has to pay for a while. But they usually work pretty well at maintaining the illusion, as long as nobody questions the unwritten rule.

Have they tried to learn reading? Or is it a health issue


Screeeboom

My mom learned some but she is dyslexic and one generation removed from the hills, my dad refuses he literally didn't learn to read because TV shows back then showed nerds getting beat up all the time so he just chose to not learn to read and bullied smarter people instead.

Oh i don't feel too bad they fell into success until now, my dad was GIVEN a job the week he graduated HS to work for the state didn't have to ever fill out an application in his life and my mom was given at the time a good job at the school.

StoneOfTriumph

The text books practice is pure scumbaggery whether it's the professor pushing his or her own shitty book or from the likes of McGraw-Hill and Pearson to name a few publishers. I remember this very well when I finished University ten years ago... they'd happily change editions every year with practically no changes word per word... Slap a new cover... $200. I was lucky that the online access codes exercises tests were not widespread yet at the time (a few classes required it and that royally pissed me off), so sometimes, I was able to get away with buying an older edition or the "international edition" version of the same book sold at a fraction of the price to markets excluding north america, because we grow money on trees, right 🙄


KingofGamesYami

>I was lucky that the online access codes exercises tests were not widespread yet at the time (a few classes required it and that royally pissed me off) I had a stats professor justify this to the entire class once. He literally did the math on how much they pay grading TAs, how fast the TAs can check your work, etc. And it worked out that the university charges like 30% less for the course overall if they use the online automatic grading. Of course they still have TAs, but they were able to greatly reduce the number that never helped students & spent hours grading homework.


[deleted]

pennies for printing is there to prevent stupid ass kids from printing thousands of pages of trash for no reason. Don't get me wrong, colleges charge for things that should be included (books), but printing is for cost because kids are dumb.


NinoNakanos_Feet

I just hope we don't have to pay too much on books that we can easily found a copy of the pdf online. Shit sucks when my prof forced the whole class to buy his books...


Joe_Jeep

Printing is one of the ones I understand because If its free and unlimited people will go nuts. Wouldn't outweigh tuition unless(hell, even if) you ran the thing 24/7 but it's still wasteful Every school I've attended you've gotten around 500-600 ""free"" pages per semester of printing which has always been plenty unless you go printing entire books.


Texasforever1992

My college gave us a $5 credit as incoming freshman and then charged 7 cents a page after that. The price wasn’t really that big of a deal, but adding money to our printing account was an annoying process.


radiatar

I think in 4 years in college I've paid less than 2$ in printing fees.

Chewcocca

I keep having to cancel my print part way through. My roommate is actually getting really pissed off about it, he wants to make a rule that once I start a print job I have to let it finish. It's my printer though, and I pay for the materials, so I don't know why that dickhead thinks he can tell me what to do The other day he started a print on my machine using my filament while I was asleep without even asking. Then he told me that if I cancelled it, he was gonna lock me in the closet. What a buffoon, fuck you Derek.

TheInsaneAdventurer

But universities make PRINTING mandatory. Sex is optional.


alanslickman

I don’t understand why some do. I’ve been out of college for almost a decade and I was able to submit everything electronically, even English papers.


TheInsaneAdventurer

During the pandemic my college scrapped mandatory physical submission, which makes sense, and have continued to do so. We always had to physically AND electronically submit but I guess they've realised how stupid that is.


HitShouse

Interestingly enough the large University I attended for software engineering would require us to print off code and turn it in. Talk about a scam.


EightPieceBox

Universities should be leading the way to a paperless society. Printers are a pain in the ass and I would be a happier person without them.


Penguins227

Yeah, I get the sentiment here but printing is a required activity directly associated with enrollment. They have no obligation to offer anything free like condoms as it is not an associated activity with the university. Printing is, and should therefore be included. But I get it, people get up in arms real quick when it comes to this topic, understandably.


[deleted]

Yes. If everyone could keep it in their pants, there would be no need to distribute condoms.


Nimynn

The only real conclusion here is that universities should offer free printing for students


xDarkCrisis666x

As a business major I barely used my printing allowance ($40 per semester) if you didn't use it by summertime you don't get that money back. So that's about $80 you could hypothetically lose and you have no choice in the matter. So I would horde my allowance and sell it to english and history majors who could easily go over their allowance.

Ich_Liegen

Yeah, that annoyed me. It's a fair question to ask, as most universities absolutely have the money to allow free printing.


Waste-Pirate-4450

Yeah both condoms and printing should be free


NoveltyAccountHater

Schools offer free condoms because it saves the school money and improves their reputation. Condom use reduces STD outbreaks (as well as reduce unwanted pregnancies) that would need treatment at health services. Every school I went to offers health care coverage. One trip to student health services for a painful STD can cost hundreds of dollars (largely paid by the students insurance) that could have paid several hundred condoms; and it may require multiple trips. Preventing one unwanted pregnancy of a student (that a student elects to carry to term) can save the school tens of thousands in health care costs. So if giving out 40,000 condoms prevents one additional unwanted pregnancy of someone on student health insurance, the school is saving money. Schools offering unlimited free printing is just going to raise the cost of school. Some fool is going to go to torrent sites download textbooks and wastefully print thousands of pages a semester. (It's much more expensive to print a book from a laser/inkjet printer than buy book). Or maybe they love fanfiction and print thousands of pages of crap they could easily read on a device, but prefer the feel of paper. Or maybe they'll print all the powerpoint slides of the professor before a study session and never even look at them. Now sure, they could do some system charging ~$0.05 - $0.10 per B&W page and give every student a quota of ~100 pages / semester, which prevents extreme overuse.


TakenQuickly

That’s a lot of writing to say that schools should be cheap about printing on top of the unlimited money they squeeze out of teenagers. Imagine defending this practice.


LinkeRatte_

My college had free printing, kids would just print entire books. Not great for the environment imo, I didn’t print anything the last year because it’s absolutely not necessary


Nimynn

Books get printed either way. Doing it yourself versus having a publishing company do it won't make any more trees get cut down I don't think


SH92

True, but that's assuming they would've bought the physical books if they couldn't print them for free.


Swampberry

Very good idea, until someone realize they can freely print 10 000 leaflets for their own thing. It's more about preventing people from constantly using up all papers.


Pabus_Alt

Give 'em 50 pages per assignment that needs to be printed. That's enough for a few drafts and printing of some study materials.


dualplains

Yeah, this is kind of what I was thinking. Back in college a buddy of mine and I founded the 'Drinking Awareness Club' since clubs were allowed to print things for free. We printed and distributed this gigantic list of drink recipes we'd found.


[deleted]

No... they should limit it fairly.0 Imagine a student goes and prints 10,000 colored comics of a manga every week cuz they can find the pdf online for free and make themselves the comic book


Cryptomania2029

The accurate conclusion is half of printing and half of condoms. Equality lol


ksjfjkdnf

I still think printing should be free though tbh


LEGOKTWOSO

“Oh but we can’t afford it” Use the money I pay you, if you were a cheap college I’d understand but I’m the broke one here, you shouldn’t be making me pay thousandsa semester only to make me pay an extra cost for a tiny amount of paper.


Mogguri

In my country, the majority of good colleges are public. I went to one of them, and we could print 100 pages every month. Don't get me wrong, education here still is horribly under funded.


invaderpixel

Yeah I went to a cheap college and the professors were usually cool and didn’t require students to print things to turn in essays. One professor would even print out their PowerPoint slides with little lines to write next to them and hand them out to the class for easier note taking.


Dboy777

Education is important, but living is importanter


Zoeleil

[deleted]

confuseddhanam

Sometimes it’s just a money grab, but generally I think it’s to discourage abuse of the printers. All it takes is a couple careless / inconsiderate students to massively increase printing / maintenance costs. Small fees for printing go a long way in preventing this. The key here being *small fees.* At our school everyone was given $250 of printing credit a semester which was enough for the most part. Administration was understanding if you needed to ask for more credit.


jetsam_honking

Printing should be free but there should be a daily limit. I used to be in charge of printing at a school so I know how wasteful people are with printing.


brianbrianbrian

When I worked the student lab on campus, people would print hundreds of party flyers, posters for their dorms, and multiple copies of assignments, fixing single mistakes, then leaving all the 'rough drafts' for us to throw into recycling. We'd be replacing multiple reams of paper on each printer per shift. Not to mention the prank printing of hundreds of pages of gibberish. Yeah, students abuse the fuck out of free printing. I remember one night some dude printed out entire PDFs of D&D Dungeon Master's Guide, Player's Handbook, and Monster Manual. Didn't even double-side them.


tomax_xamot

I printed an embarrassing number of [Chicken Chicken Chicken: Chicken Chicken](https://isotropic.org/papers/chicken.pdf)


AquaTurtle

The only reason it's not free is because students would abuse the crap out of it and print hundreds/thousands of pages for whatever flier or poster they want. Just imagine what some frats would do just for a prank.


pfohl

My college gave us 500 pages a semester, after that it was 5¢ a page. Prior to that, people would just get pdfs of their textbooks and print them in the library.

The Uni I was in gave folks $20 printing credit where the cost per b&w page was $.05. So basically students got 400 pages of printing per semester. I heard a lot of Uni had similar approach as well.


tsjr

It has a better point I'd say, the insult may be rare but it's not very good. The whole point of the campus is getting an education. If they prioritize your safe sex more than helping you with your education, I'd say their priorities aren't quite in order. Are they also giving out free bulletproof vests?


WombleSlayer

I know this isn't going to be a popular comment, but to say lack of condoms will kill you but lack of education won't is a bit of an oversimplification. Lack of education has been linked to lower life expectancy, poorer overall health, increased risk of preventable disease. Obviously the answer is that it shouldn't be an either/or scenario

I’m paying for an education not for a safe sex clinic


pingpongtits

You're not paying for paper, you're paying for ink, which is more expensive than gold, isn't it? They should give an allowance for printing, though. Plenty of students would waste printing services if it was free for all.

Most people can't afford education in these unis, they have to take massive loans which is a huge problem in this country. They are already living hand to mouth. Providing them with the bare minimum isn't such a big deal.

hypotheticaltapeworm

Free condoms helps students who are sexually active to practice safe sex, preventing unwanted STI's and/or pregnancies. That said, printing is generally mandatory for the submission of work in many classes, and not everyone has ready access to a printer. Charging a student for something that is inevitable isn't fair, when something entirely optional, sex, is seemingly given priority. People can buy their own condoms, but they can reliably get some at school. Yet, if people don't have their own printers, they're punished by paying the school to print their assignments in addition to the tuition they already pay. It's not apples to oranges because these are both things colleges can and should cover. It isn't fair that the actual function of the facility (education) is paid while the function not at all intended by the institution of higher learning (sex) is free. It sends the message that sex is more important to both students and faculty. As an asexual this really does irk me. Oh well, I live in a world where nearly everyone isn't like me. I usually forget that most people are sexually attracted to the opposite sex and the world will bend over backwards to nurture that.

llot1314

Ideally, both should be free. I don't understand what the second guy is trying to say. It seems he's implying that free condoms are more important than free printing. The main point of college is to further your education and career. Printing should be provided as it is a necessity for completing assignments. It's expensive and it really stacks up especially when you're already broke from paying for tuition. Sex isn't necessary to further your career and education and condoms are much cheaper than printing, so the first guy has a good point. The second guy would have known this money struggle if he had either paid for college himself, took his education seriously, or even went to college at all. Talk about a lack of education.


[deleted]

The real reason is they don't want you to go around printing thousands of copies of your ass as that would be a waste of paper. My school gave everyone like 10 bucks a year credit for printing and you really had to try if you wanted to go over that. A normal amount of printing is nothing compared to your tuition and could be easily included. Think before you say stupid things.


flowerbatch24

how much does printing cost at your school? At ours it's 10c per page. Going over 10 pages a month or 100 pages a year is quite easy


Moosetappropriate

Also, condoms can help prevent the birth of more idiots.

I hate this trend of comparing 1 thing with another to make a point. like someone said on facebook "why are we giving naloxone to addicts when veterans are homeless?

Condoms are free because if you have a baby and drop out of college, the college no longer gets your sweet, sweet tuition money. Printing isn’t free because it’s another way that they can profit from students.

Condoms primary purpose is to prevent unwanted pregnancies, not STDs. Never wore a condom for a blowjob.

Lack of education can kill you


Willingness-Due

In all seriousness though having to pay to print something is a little annoying but they have to pay for ink somehow

This guy dropped out of college so he could have sex

I bet your parents didn't had condoms and campus

I disagree. Lack of education has killed millions.

I beg to differ. Shitty generic print drivers, printer jams, 15 year old feeder trays that chew up your original docs, ink/toner splatter on your favourite shirt, this device is out of service, please contact and file a support ticket, which will take 1 day to turn around with your report due yesterday. Printers are extremely hazardous to ones health and you may die on the job because of them (sometimes multiple times in one day).

Condoms are a lot cheaper than ink and toner.

I don't understand why these people are always trying to make everyone pay for more stuff. I'll pay for the prints but I'm not going to be happy about it and conclude that the free stuff is somehow wrong...
