University insists on GPS phones for students
Students at Montclair State University in New Jersey are required to have mobile phones fitted with GPS tracking devices as part of their equipment for campus life.
The scheme will cost students $420 a year for 50 minutes of call time per month, unlimited text messaging, emergency GPS tracking and unlimited data use on campus.
Students are not tied into particular phones or contracts, and can choose from a range of options.
"I do not see why they should be adding unnecessary fees to the students who have a hard time paying for college anyway," freshman Sury Lopez told WCBSTV.com.
