did graphic design at Medway College of Design in Kent - we had to do typography as part of the course

most of us just took the pi$$ because the typo tutor was a bit of a "beardy weirdy" which with hindsight was a shame because, a)it is not only interesting but also an essential and integral part of graphic design process, and b) he was ok and wasnt into real ale or cardigans at all

but i bet things havent changed - i bet a lot of graphics students these days are more keen to get stuck into photoshop than they are to learn about the finer points of typo

[yorkshire accent]when I were a lad, back in the "good old days" before photoshop were invented, we were more interested in airbrushing everything to within an inch of it's life :-)) [/yorkshire accent]
