For those of us in University/college, what course books have you had to buy so far? I went out to my campuses during my week these last two days and got them all. They are:

LogicWorks 5: Interactive Circuit Design Software
Logic and Computer Design Fundementals
Discrete and Combinational Mathematics
An Introduction to Human Factors Engineering
Things That Make Us Smart (I love this title.)
Cultural Theory and Pop Culture - An introduction
The Culture of Marketing - The Marketing of Culture

All in all this was about $600. It looks like an interesting set of books.

I'm not at a university yet, but I am taking a course at the local university.

I'm taking Speech, and my textbook is Fundamentals of Speech Communication.

It's actually interesting.

Oh the glorious reasons I didnt apply to University/College.

EDIT: JS, are you taking French Law? Or is the book titled "The big house" for fun?

DimHalo · 09-02-2005, 01:09 PM

French law... that actually sounds kind of interesting.
the french books I have are for my class called The Algerian Novel. I haven't started reading the book, La Grande Maison, yet but it is just a novel so I'm sure it is a literary title.
