>Selling first year college textbooks guarantees an insane profit margin and it essentially holds the student captive since problems in lower division classes are often assigned out of the book.
Don't even get started with fucking online homework codes. These essentially force you to buy not only the newest edition of the book, but a new COPY of the book, because if you buy a used copy, you sure as hell know it's not going to have a usable access code. I will never understand why professors assign (or are forced to assign) this garbage online homework. If they assigned paper homework, they could hire a few more TA's and give them plenty of busywork, plus the students wouldn't have to spend hundreds of dollars just so they can get a grade in the fucking course.
