I had a cool prof at SIU-E for a marketing class, he advised us to NOT use spellcheck because it would mess our papers (too long to explain, but he had a certain format that he preferred, certain items in all CAPS, etc. and spell check would change it). I appreciated his warning because it really could have ruined my paper for his class....I always spellchecked until that particular class.
You are SIUE graduate?!? I went to SIUE 2001-2004.
I graduated from there in Dec of 2001. Looks like I got out just before it went downhill. :P
