    Comments: I really dislike the fact that we need to go online, and move back and forth from two different eBooks, in order to get images for one physical copy of a book that has no images in it. It is definitely a waste of my time and money, as a first-year student!

    Comments: We should be able to buy access to the web resources and share the book. I feel that we aren't getting the whole story as to why it is absolutely necessary for each of us to buy our own book. Our questions are met with vague uninformative answers.

    Comments: Publishing an unfinished book and expecting us to purchase it for such an expensive price is ridiculous.

    Name: Matt Fielding on Sep 13, 2012
    Comments: $180 for a unfinished text book that can't be rented, bought used, or re-sold is bad enough. Taking all of the pictures out of an art history book makes it all the more ridiculous.

    Comments: The book is already expensive. It should be flawless and seamless. $180 for an inconvenience just isn't worth it.

    Comments: Art cost so much because of the images and royalties to the artists, to pay for price for a book without images is insane.

    Name: Mike Sirois on Sep 13, 2012
    Comments: I've believed that the textbook industry is a racket for a long time now. But this instance takes it to a whole new level. It borders on extortion. The publisher has sold us a substandard product knowing full well that we need this book for the course, and will buy the book regardless of quality in order to succeed.

    Comments: I have already purchased this text because the student body has been told it is required of us. But I am very unhappy about this situation. Not impressed OCAD!

    Name: Pilarica Fernandez on Sep 13, 2012
    Comments: I think it's absurd that we have to go online every time we have to look at the actual picture. $189.00 does not justify this. At least make the book half-price; then maybe I'll buy the book. I work for the Superior Court of Justice of Ontario and this is one of many reasons why I continue to see so many students accrue student debt and file for bankruptcy by the time they graduate.

    Comments: For many of us I feel there is already a lot of pressure because we are a part of the new first year programs, which include new untested curriculum. The textbook situation seems to be the icing on the cake

    Name: Laura Thipphawong on Sep 13, 2012
    Comments: Research and studying is one of my strong points, and instead of getting my reading done right away as I planned, I have to photocopy the chapters as we go and then look up each image one by one on google because I can't afford the $180. This is an obvious racket to get money from students and it's pretty sad.

    Comments: It's totally ridiculous to get us to pay full price for a "prototype" stage book, with absolutely no resale value. It's taking advantage of the student body, and shouldn't be put up with.
