Sep. 19th, 2012 09:18 amArt students at one college are required to buy an art history book with no pictures. For $180.
Nice extreme example of how screwed up (and corrupt) the system has become. Too bad it's also become so necessary to have a college education to be able to support oneself. (Which is, of course, part of the problem... Captive audience and all that.)
Bah. *looks at calendar* ARRRRRR!
Ach well. I need to get ready for class. And prepare myself to ask my teacher to completely disregard the question I asked on the quiz yesterday before I got the correct answer drilled into my head during class. *blushes* Details, details. Accounting is all in the details. (Am I really sure this is the best way for me to earn my living?) Ah well. Better to make mistakes when it doesn't matter (i.e. class). At least I do tend to learn from my mistakes. Well... except for the parsing details bits. ("On" is very different from "in"! Oops.)
*sigh*
