    Hello,

    I am doing a little bit of research into printing charges in the various Dublin University's, it is going to be part of a student newspaper article.

    The article is going to compare the top Dublin University's and also investigate how much profit Universities make from the students in this way.

    If someone would be able to link me to or list on here what the various charges are for Trinity I would be much appreciative

    Thanks.

    I implore you not to pluralise "University" with an apostrophe in your article.

    Don't forget to take into account that in a lot of colleges, including Trinity, printing is outsourced, so it's a private company - and not the college itself - making the profit.

    You want to write an article for a college newspaper, but you won't even spell universities properly?

    oh dear

    Despite how it may appear, I did not spend my day writing the thirteen words which comprise my other post.

    I wouldn't normally go around correcting people's spelling or grammar on a forum, but mistakes like that really reflect poorly on a newspaper.

    Yes I agree, a similar such mistake was recently on 4 posters at the tills in the Tesco Express on Camden Street. They read:

    "We apolagise but the cred card mashines are not working"

    It makes you wonder...

    Also, it might be worth adding to your article that implementinga printing charges, expensive as they may be at times, are helpful to the environment and in helping to cut down on unnecessary paper wastage.
