HPPS Manager Bob Davis said the overcharging occurred because the HPPS employee responsible for ordering articles did not understand which articles were on reserve in the library and not intended to be included in the sourcebook.
"The person on our end didn't understand the notation," Davis said. "It's a mistake."
According to Davis, the delay was caused by time it took for HPPS to contact the financial office and determining which students had purchased the source book.
Davis says this incident was an isolated case of overcharging. Two randomly selected syllabi and price breakdowns examined by The Crimson revealed no discrepancy between the articles in the sourcebook and for which students were charged.
