Question
If there is transportation for yeshiva students provided by a transportation company, can the yeshiva students suggest to the head of the yeshiva that they provide the transportation themselves at a lower price, or would this be considered an infringement of boundaries?
Answer
During the year, they cannot, even if there is no contract, because the commencement of work is considered an acquisition. In the following year, when there are no commitments, it is not considered an infringement of boundaries, and they can make the offer.
