Reduce Cost to the Univ (Score 1)

This is an attempt for the university to reduce its own costs. Losts of big universities have lots of big public computer labs for their students. When I was in college in the late 90's, they were a necessity because most college students still did not have their own computers. Now almost every student has their own pc/mac of some sort so the public labs sit largely empty. Univ of Indiana is realizing this and sees no reason to keep them open. Now I am suprised that they are requiring Notebooks, I agree, they can be distracting in class, same as cell phones or anything else. They should just require a computer of some sort. Let the student decide if a notebook would be a benefit or detriment to them in class.
