How much time before spring semester starts does your school post the textbook list up? Thisis pissing me off it's like they don't know how long the mail takes to come during the holiday season for those who buy off half.com and amazon...

Bad news dude (dudette?) but that's exactly why they don't get posted. We (faculty) turn them in 2-3 months early but most bookstores sit on them (in fact don't usually post them) to cut down on off campus buying.
(I always waited until after the first class before buying the text because a lot of professors don't use it. If it's a "first day gotta have" like math, bite the bullet and buy from the bookstore. But, if you can hang until the first test. online it)

Sorry, but they may not even have hired the professors yet for some courses, and books can change until the day the course starts.
