Why proofreading is so impotent!


A young lad in ceramics turned in an art critique on a bowl he recently threw on the potter’s wheel. He, of course, was quite proud of his accomplishment. Apparently a brief proofreading of his written work before turning it in was too much trouble! My only explanation for his lapse in spelling acumen comes from the fact that he has biology before ceramics and they are studying the human intestinal tract right now!

Also note that the students are required to fill out the critique form completely, for full credit. And what better way to accomplish this than to type using 18 pt. arial black font!
