Udr th Brw Bkstrs wreturn policy, students returnedewer textbooks, with higher returnrats arr th smstr.

Students returned $54,000 more ttbks t th Bkstr thsJauary tha ast. But mpard tlast February, the Bookstore su-

ered $172,000 less in returns this

month, meaning ewer studentswr rturg bks at th d shppg prd.

Tere was a huge change inoverall buying and returns, saidSteven Souza, director o Bookstore

had three days to return books aferbuyg thm. T y ptswr mad r bks rm asssstudents dropped, or which thedeadline was held until last Wednes-day. Ts smstrs dad t r-turn books without dropping a classwas Fb. .

Under the old policy, studentsud rtur ay bks rgard-less o whether they dropped the

classes that required them withinth rst tw wks th smstr.Many students would buy booksrom the Bookstore while they wait-

ed or their online orders to come in,Suza sad, makg th Bkstra srt dg brary.

Because students were essentiallyborrowing books, the Bookstorewould run low on certain texts,prompting it to order more to meetstudt dmad y t aptths bks bak tw wks atr.

Teres repacking costs, Souzasad. Sm drs dt buy thbks bak. T g ad shrt it was that it was crushing our -

ensure that the Bookstore could

break even while still providing themr tha 70,000 tts r Brwscourse oerings, he said. Aside romsma twaks, th py w kystay th sam r t smstr.

sad. Ts s th thgs that

makes this institution what it is.Te revision policy did not touch

that at a .T Bkstr as bga rt-

g ttbks ths smstr, with what Souza said is a trend atother college bookstores. Te rentalsystem allowed the Bookstore tooer some o its merchandise at aprice lower than it could or used

books, meaning that the Bookstoreud b mr mptt.

Whether the Bookstore will ben-t th g ru rm th rtapolicy is still unclear, Souza said.

Te Bookstore must rent a book

several times beore recouping itscosts, and nobody can say howmany copies o a book the storewould have sold had the title not

been rentable. While the Bookstoressupplies o some books were rentedut mpty, th str was yable to rent 30 to 40 percent o othertts, h sad.

Were very happy with the re-

At the most recent Undergraduate Council o Students meeting, thebody evaluated a new initiative that would provide alums with perma-nent Brown e-mail addresses even afer graduation. Jake Heimark 11conceived o the idea and has since started working in collaborationwth th aum assat, Cmputg ad Irmat Srsand the councils Admission and Student Services Committee. Otheruniversities, including Harvard, already provide such addresses totheir alums. Tis innovative project can only urther integrate the

Brown community and should provide signicant advantages orbth aums ad udrgraduats.

Many o us have more juvenile personal e-mail addresses than wemght k t admt, ad mr tha a w studts ha prsumabyb rd t b ab t us th Brw dma r ar prd-ing potential employers with this inormation. Te Brown alumni

e-mail tag will provide an authoritative and elegant address or thoseappyg r jbs. As th mpymt rt, a aum addrssshud prd graduats wth mr a g up wh appygt jbs wth w Brw aums.

Rape vs. rape-rape: confronting ambivalence about sexual violence

The truth o the matter is that there is still widespread

ambivalence about where and on whom to place blame

or instances o sexual violence, particularly when such

instances are colored gray.

This semester, there is only one lecture course oered

under the international relations course code, and all

other courses are capped senior seminars. For around300 concentrators, there are only seven classes.
