 Barnes & Noble is the largest book retailer in the United States.As a result, - and due to the college already maintaining a contract with Follett - the executive board of the College's Faculty Student Association (FSA) voted to withhold $25,000 in discretionary funds during that semester, funds that are traditionally issued to the college president for discretionary purposes.This move by the FSA was unprecedented; however the aim of involvement by FSA was to obtain a judicious decision about the matter from the state comptroller.
