...first week, or by posting assignments online. Such an arrangement would provide students with the most choices. Those willing and financially able to purchase books at the Coop could do so, but students who were not in that boat would not be disadvantaged. And it would require almost no extra work for professors. Assuming syllabi were released early enough, UC representatives could collect ISBN numbers from the comfort of their own dorm room, the Coop would not be invaded, and students would save money.

It is also allowing other teams to make threes...
...people in the café is any indication, I am not alone in feeling its aura of sociability. Rather than gains in work, café dwellers—including those who purport to be “working”—have gained the valuable addition of extra social time, while not feeling the guilt of the “Harvard” student who chastises himself for not living in the library...
