- mnky9800n 2y agoThe university has a choice to not force such things. There are open source alternatives such as openstax. There's little reason to force students to buy expensive textbooks.
- shortrounddev2 2y agoI agree; in my state, the universities are not required to have open source textbooks, but if they do use them, they are required to mark them in course catalogs so that students can pick them. I have yet to see this in practice though
