Non-authorized student fundraisers have been banned from Logan.
For the past few months, it has been announced on Logan Live and the daily bulletin that students are not allowed to sell food on campus unless it is for an authorized student fundraiser. All items and money are to be confiscated from the students who are caught selling them.
Many students feel this is unfair to those who are less fortunate.
“This is how me and a lot of other people save up money for college,” one anonymous student told The Courier. “Me and a lot of my other friend’s parents won’t let us get jobs because they don’t want us to be distracted from our schoolwork.”
This is the main reason students choose to fundraiser at school.
Most students who are caught having an unauthorized fundraiser tell school staff it is for a club or sports team. Another anonymous student also spoke with The Courier, “I only got in trouble for selling food once, most teachers don’t do anything. A few days ago, one of my teachers got mad at me for selling during class, but he just told me to sell somewhere else.”
A friend of this anonymous person said, “Everyone’s just selling candy and chips. I skip breakfast a lot, so it’s really convenient for me to buy food from people.” This same student told The Courier that if Logan supervisors were really concerned about students selling food on campus, they would also punish the students buying them.
