UA book policy still hard to enforce

Some instructors still prefer independent bookstores

Over two years after the UA adopted a policy requiring instructors to give their course book lists to the UofA Bookstore, some instructors are still not ordering through the bookstore.

University of Arizona policy states each instructor "must provide in a timely fashion the list of all books required for the course to the (UofA Bookstore)."

The policy does not state that instructors cannot place books orders through other stores, but it does say that they must always place them with the UA in addition to any other bookstores.

Lee column right on

In regards to the letter from Charles A. Peterson, it does not take very much to make a conservative spit in fury. Jessica Lee's column detailed events in Europe, which really should be discussed plainly in the United States of America. Yet Mr. Peterson would have you believe that those damn European socialists don't know what they are talking about and they are all liberal "idiots" like the ones we have here.
