However, retrograde as it may sound, we believe that typographic literacy, and the skills that are developed through the study of it, are the foundation on which success will be based.
I don't think it's retrograde at all. Given the vast amounts of knowledge and research that are available exclusively in print (I stumped one of our research librarians a few months ago when I asked about searching for video content just as I do for text, using powerful tools and large databases), scholars, researchers, and educated persons *must* master this medium if they're to take advantage of that accumulated knowledge. Maybe I'm terribly wrong or misguided but that just seems like common sense to me. Kevin
