I am currently a doctoral student teaching undergraduate courses on my fellowship. I can't tell you how bad some of my students' writing is. Last semester, a girl handed in a paper and the whole thing looked like one giant text message.

A lot of university freshman simply don't know how to write. High school educational systems vary so much that some kids are way behind when they enter college...
