The price you pay for an instructor to spoon feed you information that can be found for free at the library or an online search because people are too lazy to go do it themselves. On the introductory level , power points are usually used , which are made by the publisher so the lazy instructor can have more time to go home and watch porn and eat chips during his supposedly "valuable time". Tuition prices can be astronomical, which sadly are on the rise to only allow the insanely wealthy to attend the lectures, and the poorer people having to work at Taco Bell.
Typical College Student: Man I cannot miss today's lecture, it is going to be important and I need to take lots and lots of notes, omg!

Smart Bystander: You are not missing anything, you are wasting your time sitting in the class when you can just read the textbook at home. The textbook has better "notes" in it then you will ever be able to take. You totally wasted your money on college tuition.
