I don't have a scanner, so I took a photograph. I've read this thing three times over, I can not find the damned spelling error.

Front Page of Syllabus (920kb)

Any help is greatly appreciated. I thought I was in college... I didn't expect these kind of amateur games.

OMG! don't you see? This way, you HAVE to read the syllabus (most people dont...in fact...none do). if you have to carefully look through each word, you're gonna have to read it. thus, the prof knows everyone read the syllabus :) smart prof.

Also, the first bullet at the top of the page starts with a lower case 'a' instead of capital 'a'.

I always hated lame assignments like this. People will waste more time looking for a stupid word that doing work that will help them actually learn the material.

You thought wrong. The correct word is typo, or misprint. Miss typed doesn't exist. Well maybe in a porno, but let's not go there.
