Teachers against books

The one thing I remebered about my freshman year of college was my freshman seminar teacher Dr. Clark. I remeber him because that year I worried my whole first couple of weeks on how much these books were going to be for school and how I didn't have the money for it.

For him, I brought it to his attention and he told me "Do not worry about getting the books for my class because the material that you'll learn through college usually doesn't come from the books."
Thinking about it, it is true because usually students are tested on information on the internet or in lecture notes, but still have to spend around 400 dollars on books we won'teven open up the whole semester.
That is what stuck out to me is when the girl in the video held up the sign about spending all of that money on books thatwe do not even open at all. The education that we learn in college comes mostly from experience and not from the books.
Another thing that popped in my mind is taking classes that will not apply to my life or my future life and job.
I rea;;y doubt that I will use Physics for my Journalism goals in my life!
