I was alerted to this story by one of my colleagues. I was quite surprised that the Obama administration would even consider siding with the publishers who just seem petty in threatening a public school. What happened to the right to education? And the ability to provide learning tools to students? Especially when at one of the largest public universities in the nation?
I spoke with a someone I know who happens to work at GSU and asked what things were like on campus. She said that students aren't afraid to speak up. I hope the students make their voices heard loud and clear and assert their right to a quality education. One that does not have to fear the threat of bullying publishers.
