“The
price
of
textbooks
has
influenced
my
decision
to
take
classes.
When
the
same
class
is
offered
by
three
different
instructors,
I
check
which
book
is
the
cheapest,
and
even
though
the
professor
might
not
be
good,
I’m
forced
to
take
that
class
because
the
textbook
is
the
cheapest.”
Johnny
Lazzarini,

Biology,
Foothill
College
“When
I
look
at
a
syllabus
and
it
says,
‘required
text,’
I
think
in
my
head,
‘Oh,
that’s
adorable.’
One
of
the
resources
that
I
use
before
I
sign
up
for
class
is
Rate
My
Professors.
If
they
say
you
rarely
if
ever
need
the
textbook,
why
am
I
going
to
drop
a
hundred
bucks
on
a
textbook?
I’m
not
gonna
do
it.”

“I’ve
never
bought
a
textbook
from
the
bookstore,
like
in
my
en_re
college.
I’m
buying
textbooks,
but
the
interna_onal
version.
It’s
like
way
cheaper.
For
my
‘Intro
to
Stats’
class,
the
usual
cost
of
the
textbook
is
like
$120.
But
then
I
got
a
copy
from
India
for
like
$29.
And
it’s
the
exact
same
copy.”
Sargunjot

“In
the
beginning
of
the
semester
we’ll
be
trying
to
buy
books,
and
you
can
put
it
on
Facebook,
be
like,
Oh,
I’m
taking
this
class.
A
lot
of
people
will
just
be
like,
Oh,
I
actually
have
the
PDF,
let
me
send
it
to
you.
Or
I
was
in
lab
one
day
and
the
guy
sibng
next
to
me
had
the
PDF
version
of
the
book
opened
on
his
computer.
And
I
was
like,
Oh,
can
I
have
a
copy?
And
he
sent
it
over
to
me.”

17. “Having
the
free
textbook
available
to
me
online
was
great
in
so
many
ways.
It
allowed
me
to
save
$130
and
when
you’re
on
a
fixed
budget
like
I
am,
it
helped
me
a
lot.
Also
it
being
free
and
online
allowed
me
to
download
it
to
all
my
portable
devices
without
having
to
pay
for
more
registra_ons
like
other
downloadable
books
do.
So
I
could
take
it
with
me
wherever
I
went.”

“Having
the
online
text
book
in
my
Research
Methods
class
was
great
it
saved
me
and
everyone
in
class
from
having
to
spend
$130!
Now
when
you’re
on
a
student
budget
that’s
huge!
Now
if
we
could
only
get
all
my
classes
to
do
that
I
wouldn’t
have
to
spend
so
much
money
on
just
text
books!”
