Actually they allow my daughter to have the incredible opportunity of purchasing the two year old laptop from the school after she has already paid $2000 for a $799 computer at $500 per semester. They she gets a new one and the cycle starts over.
They also ban un-approved laptops in the classroom and only their computers may be used. My cousin is a full professor at the main University in my state and he only teaches two hours each week, while the rest of his time is spent doing research, so that may be where some of the excess cash is being used.
