[CASL-L] Refunds for lost books later found

[edunnack3492 at charter.net]

Hi everyone:

In the past, students who lost a library book would have to pay for it 
or their report card would be withheld. When we received the money, our 
policy has always been that if they found the book, the money would be 
reimbursed. I was informed today by our business manager that they 
changed the handbook (I wasn't consulted or informed) and all payments 
for books are nonrefundable. They will no longer issue refund checks. 
Even though they appear to be unyielding on this, I am wondering how 
many schools have a non-refundable policy? I am very much against this 
for many reasons, but perhaps I am alone in my feelings about this. Just 
looking for some feedback.

Thanks,
