This is an academic institution. If there's one place to offer free printing, it'd be here. I'm all for saving trees, but people will be printing the necessary materials for their classes anyway. Any paper saved will have to be an individual effort on the part of the student.
The "GO Green" banner is just a veil for NYU to hide behind. Let's face it, they don't want to print all those pages because it costs them money. This policy is disgusting-. It denigrates students and absolutely encapsulates how this institution is really a business, not an academic breeding ground. Maybe instead of building over the Third North Dining Hall, they could have spent that money to offer students free printing.
I'm appalled and will likely stay that way until NYU reverts back to its old policy.
