In an ideal world, humanity wouldn't have to deal with the blunders that complicate our ephemeral lives and college careers. There would be no more wars, no more famine, no more disease, and definitely no more not knowing how much this Fall's Gen. Chem class is going to cost you before you show up all bright-eyed and bushy tailed on the first day of class only to get smacked with the seemingly endless list of required text and supplies. Yeah, no more of that.
Well good for you and humanities efforts to achieve utopia, as legislators have recently implemented a new law that requires every institution of higher learning to post the price of all required materials for the offered courses on the school's online course schedule (get this) BEFORE YOU ENROLL; Thus eliminating the whole 'wtf face' that every collegian gets after going to the bookstore to purchase whatever book that will really only feel the touch of a human hand three times. Once, when it's bought. Twice, before finals. And third, when you're shipping it to someone else though your Amazon.com account.
But just in case you didn't get the main point of all this, now by knowing how much your classes are gonna cost you BEFORE you enroll, you can properly budget just how much of your refund check can go to three ring binders and just how much can go to pot. Perfect. Now, you know why you elected your local officials. Ahhh, democracy...
