arguments Snyder uses against laptops in classrooms are, they distract students’ attention, students miss out of the best part of American life, and he generalizes that this lack of attention will spill over into the workplace. Snyder discusses various online chatting forums such as Skype, Gchat, or iChat that students are engaged in on their laptops during class. In addition to this, he goes on to list other online activities students engage in, such as making travel plans, reading…

international students. This is an ever growing subset of those attending an American university, making up almost 820,000 students across all colleges and universities in the United States during the 2012-13 academic year (Institute of International Education).

With billions of dollars of institutional grant aid going to students with no calculated need or in excess of calculated need, it is worth exploring whether a better-utilized exemption could divert at least some of that funding into covering some of the unmet need for low-and moderate-income students. We asked a respected antitrust law firm whether the current state of the law, either under the exemption or the case law, allows for more cooperation than is currently occurring. As they explain in…
