I tried chegg and was having problems so I thought I would try something else out. a friend told me about ecampus and I loved it! the prices are already cheaper and plus she gave me her code EE15007 and it saved me 5% on top of that. you should try it out!! have you ever tried out eCampus.com for buying, renting, and selling books?

Well done. Our services can help become the disruptive force that lowers tuition rather then increase it year after year. Additionally, our services help allow students to become the teachers and get paid for it. I feel like there are many synergies within our services shoot me an email if you would like to talk. We will be out in SF in just about 1 month Hey Jon, this is my favorite post of all and a driving factor behind creating Notehall.com and I see a lot of the same value of higher education being replaced by a service like edufire.

I do wonder how much, if any, the increase in online education is going to help this process. Having more students able to take basic GE courses without needing a large amount of interact has to be good for everyone's bottom line. I do think that we're going to be more like the UK before we know it, where a very, very, very small % of kids are able to go away to school. The whole student loan process is a complete disaster.

The internet has not yet revolutionized higher education, but it seems like in time it will. Great job with what edufire in leading the way.

If you look at education, you can see why he said that. Those who cheat the system end up with all the money, and the kids...kinda get the short end of the stick.<br><br>Great post, Jon.
