I depend on financial aid and scholarships to support myself and family while I am attending school full time. Additional expenses will greatly decrease my ability to continue focusing on my degree and thus force me to enter the workforce again, leading me to cut my full time schedule to a part time schedule prolonging my graduation date further.

This mandate borders on the monopolization of the textbook dollars by one source, which would be the Alamo Colleges book store. This policy removes the consumer freedom in the marketplace, competition, and consumer choice. Replacing instead what resembles the school's attempt at a dictatorship to students in their purchasing requirements. This policy is inappropriate. Allow students the choice to purchase the books from Alamo Colleges, but don't make it a mandate.
