    • I normally encourage students to find the best price. However, for this course/product, I highly recommend you purchase items from the campus bookstore or directly from the publisher.
    • WARNING: If you choose to buy from another source, you risk not getting the right products. When I checked prices online, some textbook/rental companies had misleading information. There is no guarantee that the online access code will work. I highly recommend you buy from the bookstore or the publisher.
