Be glad she was able to snag USED books!

The father who complains about the price of schoolbooks is far better
than the father who says he will not pay for any of your higher education.

And a daughter that wants to apply herself and achieve higher goals is
far better than the one who does not. Hang in there Gary.

That is part of the reason my formal education hit a brick wall not long after public high school.

LOL. It's a racket to be sure.

The prices are crazy but they reflect the greed of the publishers. Good luck

I always bought used books, too. If I could get my semester's worth for under $300, I figured I'd done well. Best of luck, sir.

I feel your pain my friend. When I attended a local city college for graphic design/digital media arts, the cost of books put me in shock. I remember paying $130.00 for one book. What is up with that? I had a Professor tell me it is how they sort those that are serious from those that aren't. I believe it is more like seperating the rich and spoiled from those that would love to learn but can't afford to.

Back to school time again ! ;-) Enjoy as it is a period where you meet a lot of people. Keeping track is important too.

Great books ... egregious prices and used at that.
Wish her well.
