Q&A

1. Why is the price increasing? The Herff Jones plant starts printing pages as we submit them in October.  If we order more books after October, they charge us more money per book.  If we order books after December that cost increases again.

2. Why can't I just get my book at the end of the year? This year we inventoried all of the left-over books from years past.  We totaled just under 1,000 books!  Yearbooks are expensive and we can't afford to over-order books so we finalize our numbers in March based on the number of books we have sold.  We receive 11 overprints with our order, but with a student body of 1,400+ "them ain't good odds!"

3. What are you doing will all of those excess books? Great question!  All of the books from 1994-2008 are on sale for $15!  Just come down to room 310 and we will hook you up!

4. What should I do if I forgot to pick up my yearbook last year? If you paid for a book last year, but never picked it up, please get a note from the bookkeeper showing that you paid. Bring the note down to room 310 and we will gladly give you your book.

5. Can I still get a yearbook from last year? If you didn't buy a book last year, we are now selling last years books for $45.  Pay the bookkeeper and bring your receipt down to room 310.
