Last year we had 24 pairs of headphones with built in mics, because these were slowly but surely "borrowed", lost or broken, we now have 2 pairs left. We have other professional mics and headphones as well, but they exceed the requirements of general use, and, there are limited quantities. Certainly we are not loaning those out for any old purpose after what happened to the 24 pairs. Professional gear is now reserved for when it is really required.Some of you are now approaching coursework in which headphones, and in some cases a microphone would be helpful. If you can do it, getting a pair of headphones of your own, with a built in mic, would be an advantage.
To show how cheaply it can be done, I bought the pair shown above from Poundland just to see what they were like. They work. The recorded sound quality is acceptable for most student purposes. Only £1.
It is up to you of course, but if I were you I would rather have my own pair, than be waiting for one to become available.
