One thing to note is if your IT department knows you are charging for tickets for the shows they will go by the "letter of law" in the contractual wording of use by Vectorworks that your college will have to pay for use of the program.</div>

Reasonable question. Nemetschek offers free licenses for educational computer labs and free licenses for educators and students, so the school doesn’t have to pay for licenses. Until this semester, all our designers had their own licenses for the software,
so we haven’t had to worry about it.<br>
<br>
Seeing if other institutions were paying for a “loaner license” or including it in the compensation so that we don’t need to complicate the payment/registration component of renting on behalf of the designer is part of why I’m asking the question. Based on
the number of designers that we’ve used previously that are pivoting to other careers, I think it’s going to be more common (at least for us) to find this situation.<br>
