You can barely cover the cost of one textbook now for the amount you paid for one quarter then.
@SmurfySuzi: Books were in addition to the costs I show. I remember books running anywhere from $20-$80 each. I have a very thick Calculus book that cost over $100, but it was good for three classes. You could save some money by buying a used book and at the end of the quarter, you could sell your book back to the bookstore (for a fraction of what you paid).I kept a few books from college for future reference material. The one on Calculus was NOT kept. In 30 years as an engineer, I never once used calculus.
