Thank you, @freddyshegog, for being willing to drive up the mountain to meet me half way. We had a great time showing you a bit of our rural area and getting you to taste the spring water. 😋 Next up, wife comes and we take you all fishing and boating! Can't wait!

For decades, the cost of college textbooks spiraled even higher. But in the last few years, that spiral has slowed. This film from #OpenSourceStories introduces you to the students and scholars who are making course materials more accessible: red.ht/2RXCvga

Barbara Gooch, a student at Volunteer State Community College, shares her experience at the @AACU conference: Seeing an unexpected $100 or $150 fee for textbooks pop up, that can throw a monkey wrench in a student’s plan. How can we lower that cost that might not be expected?

I’m so glad @CollegeShopTalk was able to share her perspective and experience at today’s #GEPA22 panel! Students need to be part of the decisions that impact them, because they best understand what those impacts are. #oer

Do students want to get automatically billed for textbooks, or would they rather have the freedom to shop around? Here's what students have to say about "Inclusive Access." #aacu22 inclusiveaccess.org/posts/vi…
