Materials due by the end of spring semester that are not returned by Friday, April 22, will be subject to "lost item" charges, which are increasing to a minimum of $75 per lost item, plus a $15 processing fee. The processing fee will not be refunded, even if the item is subsequently returned. Outstanding library fines must be paid before a student can register for additional classes or graduate from the university. Media contact: Thom Myers, 269 387-8400, thom.myers@wmich.edu WMU News |
