I'd say about 2/3s of my professors in the 90s used huge copy packets you'd buy in addition to textbooks.
My wife got the same degrees 15-20 years later (finance/economics), her courses (at what's now ranked as a "higher" rated university) were the equivalent to what I had in high school.
This wouldn't really have been an issue but when she went to graduate school, it's on par (difficulty wise) with the 90s. So the gap she had to make up was extraordinary.

I had 3 beginning stats books and they were all terrible. I used "statistics for the utterly confused" and it helped click everything together with about 1000 less pages.
