The textbook industry is straight graft. How about teachers who sell you their own fucking book. Or we have a new edition (we changed some punctuation) and now the old edition just won't do. You'll need a whole new set for your school.
That actually did happen to me. One of my nursing professors was a co author. I finally got wise and went to the library and photo copied the pages I needed from the English Lit poetry book or whatever bs class I had to take. The books are as bad or worse than the tuition.
Worked in the bookstore during college and got us reprimanded one year for hurting a professors book sales. Found out what profs required their own books and didn't use them and began passing the word LMAO. I and other employees caught hell for it but it was worth it
I didn't know until fairly recently that when Texas was actually part of Mexico, many Americans illegally took up various activities there, so were the original "border trespassers" :)
Why do I need Texas history in order to become a BSN RN?
Let's don't get started on the textbook money laundering ..

Good for you!
The "new edition" scam is ridiculous! Fortunately, many professors allow the earlier additions.
Every school in the union, from kindergarten to university, should teach Texas History. Just my opinion, kek
Well, that is right, fren! 🤠

Humans. We just keep repeating things in a giant circle. Kek
Remember The Alamo!
