reached, the students will be charged a 5 cents per
page.
Clint Cobb, a junior agricultural development
major, said he is worried that being required to print
information for his classes will cause him to exceed
his quota.
"It would be easy to use 200 pages when you’re
writing papers and printing out notes,” Cobb said.
"I’ve had to print about 50 pages in my English
class and at least 200 pages of notes in my philoso
phy class.”
Putnam estimates that only a portion of students
will exceed their set number of pages and be required
to pay extra.
"We estimate (that at the current print rates] only
25 percent [of students] w ill exceed their quota, and
only 10 percent [of students] will pay six dollars af
ter they exceed their quota,” Putnam said.
Option two is to take the $382,000 per year and
apply it to the total cost of printing, leaving students
to pay 3.5 cents via their fee statement for each page
they print.
Cantrell said the students he has spoken to seem
to prefer the quota option of the plan. Cobb said that
he, too, would prefer the quota system.
“It’s stupid to have a quota because you would
meet your quota in just tw o classes,” he said. “But if
I had to choose, I would rather the quota then paying
every time.”
Putnam said he expects the printing rates w ill go
dow n w hen the quotas or costs are put into effect.
"Now some people print a lot, and other students
pay for it,” Putnam said. "[Under the new plan] peo
ple w ho print a lot w ill pay for it.”

There is a chance for revenue shar
ing, Cushman said.
In addition to all the free services
CTN would provide for A&M, CTN
may share some of the revenue it
earns from the students viewing its
programs.
"CTN is sort of a stepping stone
for A(iY-TV (a student-run television
station) that the RHA eventually
hopes to implement,” Cushman said.
"I would like to see |CTN| be suc
cessful and I hope other students will
