Living on campus costs more than $10,000 on top of the tuition you already pay. UMD is full of great resources for students that are free for use: sleeping pods, busses, dining facilities, and the list goes on and on. So why is it that UMD is willing to provide so many free (or included in the cost of attending and living at UMD) amenities but gets stingy when it comes to laundry machines. Surely they want to encourage students to be healthy and wear clean clothes? Right? They don't want us wearing the same clothing over and over to save costs on laundry. I mean if I can go to a dining facility and get plate after plate of food and just throw it out with no penalty then why can't I use a laundry machine. Electricity and water are both included in our housing cost so what are we paying for, the right to use the machine?
