SUBMIT YOUR TEXTBOOK ADOPTION TODAY!
Faculty, would you like to save the students $100,000? That's how
much the CU Book Store estimates late adoptions cost students every
semester. Submitting your book information for summer and fall now
maximizes the number of used books we can get and the number of books
we can buy back from the students at the end of the semester. Go to
http://www.cubookstore.com/textbooks/adoption/ and submit that
information today or contact your department's textbook liaison.
