McGraw Hill Publishing
Consumer Report

My daughter signed up for an on-line math class taught through Tacoma Community College. The only class fee listed on her account was 11 dollars. When she got to class today the teacher informed the students they would need to purchase access to an on-line software program called"ALEKS". For one hundred dollars, students are provided an access code to use the program for the quarter. This is a scam!
100 Dollars for TEMMPORAY access to a program she's never going to use again. At least with a textbook, the student can resell the book once the class is over. And very few introductory math textbooks cost 100 dollars.in this situation there are no publishing costs so the company receives 100 percent profit and the student gets nothing back.
If this sort of fee for temporary software access is a publishing industry standard for on-line courses, it's based on flagrant greed.
It not only takes advantage of students but also the funding organizations related to higher education!
