What Instructors Are Saying

“I initially assigned Norton material because of its quality, and because I trusted the authors and contributors who published with Norton. I have continued to use those materials because of Norton's commitment to its employee-owned business model and because of the excellent customer service I receive every. single. semester.”

—Matthew D. Mingus, University of New Mexico-Gallup

“One of my favorite things about InQuizitive is also one of my favorite things about Norton in general, which is the extraordinary customer service. I was always a little bit tech-phobic—I still am a little bit tech-phobic. . . .When I finally took the plunge and adopted InQuizitive, I got an immediate phone call from a Norton rep. . . .I did not have to go through what I assumed would be a frustrating set-up on my own. I felt so taken care of.”

—Megan McNamara, University of California Santa Cruz, Foothill College, and West Valley College

“I don’t often take the time to contact companies I work with, but the consistently excellent support I’ve received from those at W. W. Norton compelled me to do so. . . . [Norton rep] has been incredibly responsive, usually able to jump on a videoconference with me within minutes of my request and walk through troubleshooting technical issues with Norton digital content. Additionally, he’s also very generous with his time and will explain the technical details and solutions so that I’m able to help faculty more directly the next time the issues comes up. . . .This kind of support and assistance from a publisher is NOT the norm.”

—Brett Pfingston, Ivy Tech Community College
