Department Overview
The
College Bookstore provides services to the students,
faculty, and staff of Berea College, including the sale
of textbooks, student supplies, office supplies, general
reading trade books, gifts, and sundry items. Our
operation is very involved with and dependent upon the
Student Labor Program.
Our
goal, in setting up our student labor program, was to
have students in as many responsible roles as possible. We
feel we have achieved our goal in this area, and the
students have responded admirably.
We
have students that work with every facet of our
operation. This
includes inventory control, merchandising products, figuring
profit margins, placing orders, solving billing errors
with vendors, receiving and checking incoming merchandise,
paying invoices, customer service, cashiering, etc.
This
is good experience for all majors, especially for business
majors who gain some basic and advanced business experience;
also, very good for art majors in designing store and
window displays.
