Download Textbooks? Why Not?
As a college student, I always wants to pull out my hair every time I sign up for classes. With the increases in tuition cost, it is harder for college students to pay for a $200 textbook for one class and only get a one percent offer at the end of the semester because they have a new edition out. Even with financial aids some of us still have to work two jobs to pay for college. In a recent article from the Washington Post, students are uploading their textbooks online as pdf files for other students to download. Many of us are finding cheaper way to get our textbooks for classes, either by downloading pdf file or renting the book whichever save the most. If every professor gives out a pdf copy of the book they require for class, but since they don't and colleges are not doing anything about it, go and download every book you can my friends, before colleges decide to do something to stop us from uploading and download textbooks.
