This binder is definitely worth the money. I am a grad student working on a serious research project and I purchased this binder to keep all of my work organized. It is sturdy and comes with a nice pocket that I use to keep notes in.
Love these binders! I buy them each semester and use one for each new class. They are durable and have plenty of room for all my papers. I also love the attached clear folder in the front-I put my syllabus there for easy access all semester.
