“I unfortunately had to spend my money on other materials and textbooks for my other courses. But if all courses converted to zero-cost options, I would spend my money on rent, groceries, utilities, etc.”

“I spent that money on fixing my car, which I use to commute to school and work weekly.”

“Groceries and mortgage.”

“Yes! Between the other books I need to get and parking passes it is a lot of expenses.”

“Tuition and other expenses are already so much as it is for a college student and to not have to purchase materials helps me financially.”

“Yes I am happy to be in a course with no cost for books because it really makes a difference. I find it easier to keep up with readings if they are online because you can have access to these files anywhere you are as opposed to a hard-cover textbook.”

“I sometimes enjoy having a hard-cover book when I am working on assignments at home but using exclusively digital materials is much more efficient for me because I do not have to be carrying books around everywhere I go.”

“I love it because I think a lot of times Professors don't even cover half of the giant textbooks we all spend a ton of money on anyways, so it's a waste of money. Often times I rent books but online materials allow for variety and allow me to print”

“Exclusively digital materials are easier for me to digest and they're free! Brilliant!”

“If I have the option to buy my textbook online, I always do. I always have my laptop with me 24/7 so its easier than to carry a textbook and my laptop.”
