Buy College Education, Get Free iBook

kraksmoka writes ""The Chronicle of Higher Education has an article about how Saint Leo University in Florida is offering an iBook laptop to every incoming residential student and full-time faculty member. '... the draw of the iBooks has encouraged some of the more than 1,700 students at the university's main campus who would otherwise commute to live in dormitories, which makes the program a success in the university vice president's eyes.'" The students do not keep the computers, unless they finish two years in the honors program.

Don't get to keep them? by AIXman · 2002-12-09 06:50 · Score: 0, Redundant

I think all the students should get to keep them. When returned, they would have to be refurbished, and who would want to be the freshman who gets a 4 year old Ibook? I would want a new one.
