Description

A canvass of laboratory and breakage-fee policies in 160 colleges and universities indicates that: (a) laboratory fees for chemistry courses are being either eliminated or absorbed in general tuition fees; (b) many schools are eliminating or are making flat-rate breakage assessments for general chemistry courses; and (c) record-keeping on detailed individual student breakage is a costly procedure that is causing concern in many schools. Punch cards, C.O.D. replacement charges, and elimination of breakage fees are being used as alternate procedures in many institutions.
