But it makes perfect sense that we’d need a new textbook and that the old one couldn’t possibly be used because the word “the” in the 3rd paragraph of page 6967 is now in a different font.
Oh, that’s not the only thing that’s changed; they’ve also randomly re-ordered the questions at the end of the chapters so that the old one COULDN’T possibly be used.
Back when this happened to me, I had three courses over three semesters that taught from the same $300 textbook.
By the time I got to the third course, they’d moved to a new edition.
So I went to the library and photocopied all the questions pages and the answer key. While I was there, I discovered the library also had the instructor’s manual, so I gave that a quick read too.

How dare you not give your professors the kick backs they deserve!
Dad taught college and got tired of this game. So he wrote his own book and students could print copies in the print shop for $10.
Now that I’ve gone on to teach college I’ve continued that tradition, except online for $0.
Damn! That’s respectable AF! Your dad and you continuing this amazing tradition!! Thank you!
