actually that's pretty cool. when books can run more than $400 new having a supply of used for students is actually a really good idea.

College professors get paid almost nothing.
If they find a small way to add to income, let them.
Or you can pay the full amount.

I was referring to the style of the email. Random capital letters and lack of spaces between a period and a new sentence. Also, no new lines for signature? The fuck?

Oh you expect a Math Prof to write like a Lit Prof.
As much as you can pick apart his communication. You understood ever word he wrote.
Isn't that the real purpose of communication?

it's a math teacher though. i would find his lack of skills with grammar encouraging. i mean, he would have had to have graduated with that mouth, so he obviously made up for it somewhere.

Holy Jesus that's really cool though. Textbooks are damn pricy, think my calc textbook was over a hundred bucks just for two courses.

email isn't formal and in my experience most professors and teachers aren't any more formal online than anybody else

No, I expect people who teach to at least match my lack of professionalism.

I suppose this is why many math teachers are so stupid.

Depends? I had a professor who refused to answer any emails unless written professionally (especially if you didn't start with "Dear Professor name" or "Hello Professor name"). Most don't seem to care though you're right.
@643,055 (FuckAlms !vX8K53rFBI)
Ew.
I had $250 for textbooks for two classes this semester. Can't imagine how much itd be with the books for the other 2 classes :x

It's styled like one, isn't it?
On the other hand, I've had professors who still use pine on the school's old mainframe to check their email, and sometimes the overall structure of the text doesn't carry over to modern systems because of differences in text formatting on *nix systems and how the "enter" key is handled.
\r\n != \n

I need your adult advice. This museum takes untrained Anglophones to be tour guides. I want to do that. But the training is at the same time as my Thursday art history class, which is unrecorded, and this happens until April 7. On the other hand I also don't have anything on my CV so thatd be good there but.
:( priorities are hard

You cannot really skip class for extracurriculars. Find something else that fits with your schedule.
