I don't think I understand. Are students expected to pay north of $100 per course for textbooks?

If this is the cheap one, how much are the expensive ones? Why is this not bundled up with the tuition fees or why are the textbooks not borrowed from a common library that all students can use?

They’re not paying these amounts. They’re borrowing them.

Hence the student debt crisis.
