Where do we find out what the titles of the textbooks we need are for the fall??

and...where and when should we get the textbooks (before froshweek or during)??

Thanks!

so far the textbook titles are only out for summer school courses
usually you buy your textbooks after your first class to see what the prof recommends
if its a textbook you know you are going to buy, you can buy it during welcome week

I'm not too sure when textbook lists come out, hopefully someone can cover that for me but I would highly recommend you don't buy the textbooks until after your first class because you may find out you don't really need/use the textbook, and you probably don't want to be wasting 100$+ on a textbook you don't need.
I would also suggest asking upper years if they would personally recommend you get the textbook for the course, some profs may say you should get it, but you end up only being tested on lecture notes or something of that sort. A lot of textbooks are also on reserve at libraries so you can use those.

Good Luck!

The textbook list for the fall 2010 classes comes out in mid-August. Last year it was posted on the website above on August 17th

On titles website it says the booklist will be released August 6th.
