The laptop has now become a university necessity. While students used to be able to get away with handwritten notes and library computers, the modern age embraces the use of laptops. Not only do they provide quick note-taking, they also house essential information for papers, study guides and quick communication with professors. With the fast-paced and busy nature of university life, however, students need to be able to transport their laptop around campus without fear. Whether they’re traveling from class to class or packing up their laptop for a long night of studying, uni bags and laptop backpacks provide the protection and easy mobility students need.
