Hello Professor Avallone,

This is a great way to get good books for less. I currently am doing this and have found Chegg to be less than others. But like the article states, it really depends on the book that you are looking for. Students have so much to pay for and this is such a relief for me personally, knowing that I save anywhere from $175.00 to over $300.00. For the Spring Quarter, I will be saving $205.00. Two books are coming from Chegg as I like to plant a tree and I shop at ECampus as well

WOW. I am going to have to get involved with these websites, especially for the spring semester. I use half.com and I rented one from Barnes & Nobel. However, they are no the cheapest. These types of site are so helpful to college students. The price of books are very expensive and is a large expense added to what you are already paying for school. I am very excited NY Times put this article out. It will come in handy to many college students.
