Irritating is an understatement.<br>
<br>
<br>
Ours are set up so MS Office licensing will stop working if it isn't connected to our network ever 90 days but if they aren't using that it will keep working.<br>
<br>
<br>
We're thinking of getting some kind of software installed that will allow us to remotely shut the laptop down.<br>

<br>

Hi all, about a year ago, TCC asked the library (and other departments) to stop placing registration holds on overdue materials per the HB 2513<<a href="https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fapp.leg.wa.gov%2Fbillsummary%3FBillNumber%3D2513%26Initiative%3Dfalse%26Year%3D2019&data=04%7C01%7C%7C116dfda31c6646ee378408d94af0db31%7C02d8ff38d7114e31a9156cb5cff788df%7C0%7C0%7C637623220609544749%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=LAEWPmv9MLJg%2BGu5B7oQy3V8JJiiA93Y9M9aci0TV3s%3D&reserved=0">https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fapp.leg.wa.gov%2Fbillsummary%3FBillNumber%3D2513%26Initiative%3Dfalse%26Year%3D2019&data=04%7C01%7C%7C116dfda31c6646ee378408d94af0db31%7C02d8ff38d7114e31a9156cb5cff788df%7C0%7C0%7C637623220609544749%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=LAEWPmv9MLJg%2BGu5B7oQy3V8JJiiA93Y9M9aci0TV3s%3D&reserved=0</a>>
which passed into law. We complied, but now with a year under our belts, I'm not happy with the results! Two thirds of our total number of laptops have not been returned, even with a signed agreement by the student and extensive outreach and follow up by our
staff. I know from our previous conversations in LLC about this that other colleges have interpreted the law differently and are still placing holds on registration for overdue equipment (like laptops).<br>
<br>
Here's the specific language from 2513 about registration holds:<br>
<br>
* provides that institutions may only withhold registration privileges for debts related to unpaid tuition fees, unpaid room and board fees, or any financial aid funds owed to the institution under Title IV or to the state due to miscalculation, withdrawal,
misinformation, or other reason, not including standard repayment of student loans;<br>
<br>
If you are still placing registration holds, how is your college interpreting the language above to find a loophole?<br>
<br>
Thanks - I'd like to see our policy changed but need some examples to offer for clarity.<br>
