We went on a crusade to stem the indiscriminate use of bedsheets. While he was about his noble and expensive priority, he resolved to quench the careless and excessive use of shower towels, too. The Dean recruited and doggedly drilled his Official Bedsheet Inspectors and Towel Sniffers Squad. Each weekday morning they spend and hour or more checking prisoners' linens. It's the Dean's clever use of tax money.
Prisoners present their dirty bedsheets and towels.
With as much care as a hungover guard can muster at 6 AM, the linens are inspected. If they are worn, torn or dirty, the man is given a misconduct and charged for the supposed cost of the bedsheet. The shower towels are also inspected for dirt and wear. If the Dean's on duty, they are also sniffed for offensive odors. Again, the poor devil who happens to be using the towel when it wears out, gets to pay an inflated price to replace it.
