How many colleges still run their own bookstores? I just checked six in Washington, DC: four stores are run by Follett, one by Barnes and Noble, Howard runs its own. Of course, I have no idea how many the schools get. But it was my impression long ago that many college bookstore managers are happier selling sweatshirts and mugs, and regard books as a nuisance.
