I would like to solve the rising cost of college textbooks at Black Hawk College. In just two weeks, I watched an access code rise 24.8% in price. Just three weeks ago an access code for CS 100 was $117.78, yesterday morning it was $128.72, and when I went to buy it at 3:30 p.m. it had gone up to $147. It is not right that college students are paying more for textbooks and access codes than what it costs for a credit hour. With students, both current and former, speaking up and supporting the issue, we can make a change and stop the costs from rising. We have a voice and the dean needs to hear us in order for the inflation to stop. There is no reason a student should have to struggle while going to a public community college.
