Open Textbooks Currently in Use at UM-Flint

A number of UM-Flint classes, primarily in the mathematics department, have adopted OER textbooks from OpenStax.org, a non-profit organization affiliated with Rice University. OpenStax OER textbooks are unique; in addition to the freely available textbooks online they also sell affordable print versions for students that still want a physical book.
