This is a pretty good report (surprisingly, given the source) on the latest scheme by publishers to extract money from students: access fees to submit assignments and coursework. Yes, you read that right.

But the code to access the program cost $120 — a big ask for Harper, who had already put down $450 for textbooks." If you want to see a lot of angry responses, check the #accesscodes hashtag.
