department h nowrcspon
sible for setting up the
dining rooms and serving
areas, backing up the ser
ving of the food and the
cleaning of the kitchen,
dining room and serving
afterwards. Push

crease includes every
thing such as disposble
chinaware, candles, and
labor fees, but does not
include the cost of food.
Though the student or
ganizations are still re

make sure the union's
guests are taken care of."

Q. How does the University Bookstore determine
how much my books are worth when I sell
them back?
A. If the bookstore has notification f m the in
structor that the book is to bz u-a opted for
the next semester, and if the Lokstore does
not already have a suffL::nt stoc!; on h-nd,
then the student
publisher's cur :nt li:t price. For in ance a
book wuich c: rsntly r "s for C10XD ,.vf
and r.iich nr. :s the "tu ire rents noted
abov would orth C CO. t would be
resc' the rt sc..- er for 7.50.
If t! okstc has t.. received notice that
the L will L sed again, or if it already has
3 sufi. t sf a, the book would be worth
. the curr, jlesala price as indicated by one
of the nation's largest jobbers of used text-
books. The buyer will be happy to answer
any questions which you may have regarding
the price paid.
Q. Is sixty percent the usual price paid for textbooks around the country?
A. Definitely not! Most stores in the United States pay only 50 percent for
bocks being used again. The University Bookstore is one of only a very
few which pay 60 percent. And remember we pay each.
Q. What about paperbacks? Does the same policy apply to them?
A. Yes. The University Bookstore does not penalize you on text paperbacks.
If they are being used again, and if the bookstore needs them, they are still
worth 60 percent of the publisher's current list price. The only exception
. is English paperbacks which are bought at wholesale prices.
Q. If the publisher's price had gone up since I bought my books, will I receive
the benefit of that price increase?
A. Yes. For instance, if you bought your bock for $9.00, and the publisher's
list price is now $10.00, you will get $5.00, not $5.40.
Remember, Bring Us Your Books During Finals Week. Books will be bought
May 2-4 Ci 7-11, 0:30-4:30 at North Union Main Lounge and 9:00-4:00 at
