<p>I think you will find that a lot of parents buy the books for the students. Last year we spent way over $1,000.00 on textbooks and that was online and going to 3 different bookstores looking for the cheapest. That does not make us parents “too involved”. It means we don’t have a lot of money!</p>
<p>D prof ordered new edition for this semester, the new textbook was $220 the old was as low as 25 on line. Some of the kids approached her, she said she had no idea the new one was so $$, cancelled her request and she changed it back to the old cheaper book.</p>
