Points run out way too fast

On the 20 meal plan with points and I'm already at half after three weeks. A coffee and a bagel at the Blue Room is like 9 points. Either prices need to come down or the plans need more points. Would love to see actual numbers on this.

$340 for one chem textbook

CHEM 0330 required a textbook plus an online homework code that together cost more than my meal plan points. The library has one copy on reserve for 200 people. Can departments be pushed toward open textbooks?

Where can I actually use Bear Bucks off campus?

The list on the website looks old. Half the places I tried on Thayer said they stopped accepting it.

Why does brown bookstore have no discounts for brown students?

Brown students should not pay the same amount of money for merchandise as people who do not attend the school.
