can you be in college and be illiterate?

okay, i know extremely educated people who just have issues spelling things correctly. but if you know this about yourself, don't you run the spell-checker? or at least keep a spelling dictionary somewhere nearby, so you don't make yourself look completely ignorant in handwritten assignments you're handing in for a grade?

That's fair enough. You never know though. I once caught a dyslexic who was a senior in college and I was the first person ever to mention the possibility to him. Just food for thought is all.
