If all students in my university are required to have their own laptops, I would say that this policy sounds like reasonable but it won’t be applauded as administrators expected. To start with, each individual student may prefer one brand of laptop to another. Say you love the latest MacBook while I fancy Dell, which means that students will use different operating systems, that it can be a problem if students need to install any software for class activities or research work. Plus, some students are financially challenged and they need to do part-time jobs to cover living expenses and everything. A requirement like this will make students tighten the belt and cut down on expenditures on food and transportation, which can be troublesome in so many ways.
