Another one!  These student reps are really multiplying around here.  Anyway,
in my Account Executive's opinion, I should not post or quote prices from
any of the university's pricing sheets.  However, it is possible that other
UAE (University Account Executives -- sales reps if that is too much to
remember) may have a different interpretation.

Sorry that I said that the University prices could not be distributed.  In
my case, -I- cannot post them because, well, my boss says so.  And I always
listen to my boss...

So if someone's UAE approves the posting, go ahead and post.  But I won't;
I value my job...

-Michael
