Do you think there's anything wrong with a professor requiring his/her students to buy the book the professor wrote?

1 Answer

Answer :

As a professor with books in her future (I hope)...I must say it doesn’t sit right with me…I get that, generally speaking, a person might write about that which they’re teaching…but unless you’re the only one writing about the thing you’re talking about, just scan the pages and have your students save money…that’s what I’ll do.
