When I was a history student I never had to worry about that. I would still spend as much on books, but in general they were small history texts, not large texts books.   I would just have 5 or 6 per class.

The nice side is that they were generally good and not the type that I wanted to return, so now I have a rather nice library of history books.

doing a design degree means most of my books are pretty cool and worth keeping for reference. anyway, most of them are just design books, instead of textbooks per se. got a pretty good collection of french textbooks though, getting further and further out of date every day.

My brother got through his comp sci. without buying a single textbook, or turning up to any lectures. He bassically did nothing for almost 3 years, then worked almost 24/7 for a month on his dissertation.

one reason i love umd is that we have Book Holders so they'll take *anything* and put it on the web, and then you go in and adjust the prices yourself, so students get to create their own competeitve market. you only really have to deal with the official bookstore or the book exchange (the unofficial terp store) to get lab manuals and stuff that's newly published by the school.. i just got $73.63 from 4 of my books selling! now i just need to go down there and pick it up before they mail it to my last year's mailbox that won't be mine in the fall and is in a building that won't be open til the fall..
