This course is part of our course material delivery program, the Bison Book Bundle. The bookstore will provide each student with a convenient package containing all required physical books and any digital materials will be integrated into Canvas for this course.
You should have received an email from the bookstore confirming materials provided for each of your courses and asking you to select how you would like to receive any printed components (in-store pick up or home delivery). If you haven't done so already, please confirm your fulfillment preference so the bookstore can prepare your materials.
