A Hypothetical

Student groups A, B, C, and D are funded through a fee assessed on the student body of a law school. All four groups use a portion of those funds to buy toner and paper for their printers. While groups A, C, and D only allow printing for official purposes, group B allows its members to print out any and everything for free. Should the student body pay for the members of group B to print their personal items?

Only if what they're printing out is sex-ay!

Only if the printing leads to a series of mass emails to the whole school.

we should start our own organization. one dedicated to the noble cause of using student money to print our own papers.

What if group B charges members additional fees? Perhaps another factor to consider in your 'hypothetical'.

Ah, yes, but those fees don't go towards the printing, do they?

Ah yes... and suppose those same student fees received by elite group A go to schwanky Pearl Street parties... how might that factor into the overall context?
