[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] are group printers in the dorms or library, usually? Or do kids just email the work to their instructor?[/quote] Most colleges have dorm wifi to a printer in the dorm or library. We're the kind of parents who make DC have a summer job to pay for her own pizza and fun, but we did buy DC a printer because we figured it would help with academics. You can get a printer on Amazon for as little as $75 these days, and you can get a really nice printer for $200. The ink is expensive, though. Also, other kids on the floor may want to use the printer. So tell your DC to either just say no, or to start a kitty for more ink. FWIW, DC never hit us up for more printer ink thus year, but we didn't ask whether DC actually ever had to buy more ink. Language lab fees. Probably fees for art and science labs too. We paid for DC's textbooks. DC saved the receipts and we reimbursed.[/quote]
