buy used college text books

Do you know if teachers (college) get kick backs from students buying text books?
Kicks backs like a few years ago when disc jockeys on the radio use to get paid special payments to play certain bands on the radio. They outlawed that. I recently went back to college after a few yrs of working. My school book was 170$ just for one. I know what you think, i should of bought it used right? Well, there is a password in the book that i need to get online with to turn in homework. He wont accept it in person only online thought ichapters.com. If i bought it used i would be unable to turn in HW. So do you know if the teacher get kicks backs from the text book companies to run his class room this way?
I remember one year buying a book that my professor had written to see that the back of it was endorsed by all the other authors she forced us to buy for her class. I’m sure there are a lot of things that go on behind the scenes. Just imagine if some teacher decided to throw 50,000 your way through forced book sales, wouldn’t you want to ‘thank’ them?

Buy the Chief a Cadillac
$4.48 In spare, honest, and picturesque language, Rick Steber sets this Spur Award-winning novel on the Klamath Indian reservation in 1961 just days before the tribe's "termination" by the U. S. government. Each tribal member received a $43,000 settlement from the government in return for the Klamath's 1-million acre reservation and the end of the Klamath's tribal status.

Creek, college-bound and disgusted with reservation life, wants to take his money and run toward success in the white man's world. Chief, who represents the worst of reservation life, plans to spend his money on a new Cadillac and as much booze as he can possibly drink. Pokey, keeper of the Klamath traditions, plans on refusing the government payout and staying on his people's land. The brothers' separate plans send them on course for a deadly collision when the government money finally arrives. |
