Actually, that's exactly what I do, since a lot of the books I have are very specific to a certain topic, and having that material has actually helped me in future classes. I've had several classes where we discuss the exact same material, so it's just copy/paste. Book buybacks are like taking back some of your old PS2 games. What's the point?

This summer I had a class and I used the exact same paper I wrote in the fall. Got a 96 the first time around and a 98 the second time. biggrin:
