Last night, the Undergraduate Student Government Senate passed legislation urging professors to adopt open source textbooks for their classroom. 

Thanks to the entire USG Senate for voting yes and special thanks to the Academic Affairs Committee for bringing the legislation to the floor.

Ideally, UConn along with other leading institutions around the country will create a vibrant market for open source books, placing a check on the power of the publishing industry. So along with USG, we continue to encourage professors to adopt open source books for their classes.
