Parents, the time for pitchforks, tar, feathers and a fence rail is now. This idiot needs to be run out of town.
I remember my college days when I had to pay over $500 just for books - per semester.
Textbooks is the biggest fraud facing education. Get rid of them and let students download textbooks on an Ipad or Kindle reading device. Also think of the money saved on health problems. I've known students who have back or wrist sprains from hauling around backpacks full of textbooks all day.
