Should college students have to pay to wash their clothes, carrying the burden of yet another expense on their shoulders? That is the question.

Belhaven University recently installed new, high-tech washing and drying machines in almost all of the dorms. The switch from their worn-out machines to their fancy new ones are taking a toll on some of the students wallets. The machines are all connected to a handy app where you can pay from and check the status of your loads. The bad thing about the app is every time you want to put money into your account, it has to be at least ten dollars. This makes it stressful for students because some can’t afford to put ten dollars in or they simply just want to do one load of laundry.
