Monday was the last New Student Orientation for the Fall semester at Moraine Park’s West Bend campus. I was there again to represent the Web Developer Club along with my fellow club member, Jim. We’ve got a few more people interested in joining the group, so that’s great!
While I was on campus, I picked up a few of my textbooks from the newly renovated bookstore. It’s a little more spacious and easier to get around. Something I really like about the MPTC bookstore that I haven’t seen at the other colleges I’ve been to is that they have an online site for the store. You can look up your classes, find out what books and supplies you need, and the prices for those items online. I like to see what books and supplies are required for my classes, do comparison shopping for the best prices, and then decide where to buy my items. I usually get half of my books from the bookstore and the other half online.
The bookstore has a relatively new textbook rental option that is a good money saver. And, if you’re looking for software, like Adobe Photoshop, the time to buy it is when you’re a student. You get a major discount. You can find information on the bookstore’s website: http://bookstore.morainepark.edu/
There isn’t much left for me to do to get ready for August 22. I just need a few notebooks and to print out my schedule so I know what room to go to and when. Don’t forget to enjoy the last two weeks of summer!
