The most aggravating part of the beginning of the school year is ordering textbooks. Each year, I navigate an unhelpful website and manage unpredictable shipping until my books finally arrive. Last year I thought they had found a solution when they had students come to school to buy their books. For me this worked out well as it allowed me to receive all my books quickly and in one place. This system did not work out for everyone, with some people not being able to make it to school in time to pick up their books, so it was scrapped. This annual aggravation makes me think of a way in which we could have the convenience of purchasing all books needed for the school year in one place combined with the accessibility to purchase the textbooks. What if the school could provide Ipads for its students, in place of textbooks?
