First hurdle of the semester: what exactly IS Microsoft Word?? Some of you didn't use Microsoft Word to do the assignment and were politely asked to do the assignment over, using the correct program.
Salem State College uses Microsoft Office 2007 as the school standard. What does that mean to you? That's what we teach in computer classes on campus and that is the software that you are all REQUIRED to have on your laptops at Salem State for the fall semester, 2009.
Microsoft Office 2007 does not automatically come installed on every laptop that a student purchases. If you do not have Office 2007 on your laptops, you can buy the Student Teacher edition for far less money than the regular version.
These are the laptop requirements from the Salem State website:
