Dear Moosepants, I thought a long while about approving your comments, because you fill your first comment above with racist and sexist remarks. It sounds like you are very frustrated by not using a book in one class and then having trouble returning it to the Trumbull bookstore. As maddening as these two events may be, I would ask that you reconsider your response. Why would you think it appropriate to use a racial term in a derogatory manner in this situation? Are there other ways to respond to and think about what you experienced without lowering yourself to the level of a racist or a sexist? If the person you dealt with at the bookstore was rude, is there another way that you could rise above that by requesting to speak to a supervisor or sending a registered letter to the management? I think that giving voice to your frustration on my blog or other online discussion forums is also acceptable as long as you employ civil discourse. I believe that you are better than that, and I hope that if you do read this that you will reflect on your thoughts and what you write in the future. All the best, Jason

The course was 8 weeks long and the book sat at my computer desk the entire 8 weeks. Did not even need the book during class. Used it only to complete assignments online. The people that work there were rude when I asked them to explain what part was water damaged. I will be attending a different college next semester because of this and will try my best to convince everyone I know thinking of signing up to attend a different university. The book I am referring to has a card in it for online labs. Selling it online would basically be ripping someone off. I would have never even bought the book had I known they would shaft me after only 8 weeks of owning it. Long story short don’t I repeat don’t trust them. They lie like professional con artists and you will be disappointed as a result. Stuck with a hundred dollar book you have absolutely no use for.

Fuck Kent State Trumbull bookstore they are Jews. They said book had water damage and it does not have water damage, the rude a## Bit#h at the counter said it had water damage. Took to warren library and they said its not water damage at all. Just a little worn in the index. They are assholes looking to profit from innocent students just trying to get through college.
