University Bookstore
Website: http://www.bookstore.washington.edu/
Although it is one of more than 5,000 college stores in the United States., University Book Store can be likened to very few. It is third in total sales volume and leads all college stores in the sale of books and supplies. It is one of only a few that are organized as independent, tax paying corporations with direct student involvement on the board of directors. And it is one of the few that annually returns rebates, or patronage refunds, to its campus customers.
