It’s been a very long time since I was in college .... Things haven’t changed much, except the cost of textbooks is way higher. This is why there’s an open-textbook movement trying to create digital versions that would be cheaper and more flexible. In New Hampshire the program is being pushed especially hard at the community college level, where daily costs can be more of an obstacle.
