Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

There are books for three of my units on the co-op site.
I've compared the prices to those on amazon, converting the currency, but not accounting for the mailing cost;

Co-op: $649.13
Amazon: $387.02

So, just under 60% of the co-op price. That's pretty bad.

Did you try bookdepository?
I hadn't, but looking at it, most are a little more expensive than on amazon.

It doesn't matter either way, I'd only buy one or two of the most important, but it's just ridiculous how much we are charged for books compared with other countries.

Highly recommend that site. Prices are cheaper than amazon + shipping is cheaper and faster. I really wish I knew about it earlir.

Re: Semester 1 Chatter Thread

There's going to be like 11 different passages (I don't think they'll be particularly long). I think Katheryn said that three are by Cicero. I think you only have to choose one. Emily said they're all in the reader somewhere (she 'thinks', so be wary of that), but we don't know which ones. I think you just have to read it then sorta draw out the important bits that relate to the over-arching themes of the course.
