Talked to our son last night and he reported that when all of his books are finally available, they will be over $500 -- $300 of which are for a single course.
PET PEEVE!
Who the heck to the profs think they have in their classes. A bunch of little rich kids?
When I taught a college course, we didn't use a book. The course curriculum came from my experience and participation in class of working professional guests who were kind enough to share their time and knowledge.
I know that's not always possible -- but JEEZ, college is expensive enough without getting hammered by egocentric professors who either use their own books or their friends.
OK, now I'm off on a tangent with that last sentence. Sorry.
End of rant.
