The admin excuse here is that the students wont read or return the texts, so issuing them isnt necessary. After I extracted a Regent's Chem text, I realized the text had so few illustrations and such dumbed down language that it was worthless. Same for R. Math. I bought what my kid needed to suceed - a real text and a Review book.
