My Boss Says
Quick Intermission Whats the difference between

Paper is Precious

Paper is Precious

27
Free Printing?

Printing costs the law school close to 20,000
per year.
Printing is free to law students. Lets keep it
that way!
Avoid excessive and unnecessary printing.
Printers default to duplex (double-sided).
Please dont take blank printer paper!
LexisNexis and Westlaw have their own printers
and paper.
