I have a professor who uses Comic Sans on the take-home quizzes we have. I am in law school. What is this.

omg lol

I want to burn Comic Sans & Papyrus…

Sorry kids, but there’s a reason teachers use Comic Sans. It’s easier for children to read, especially those who find literacy difficult, or have a learning disability. There are certainly alternatives, but why should teachers give a shit if the fonts they use are hipster-credible? They have others things to worry about.

Ah yes! I remember this point.

Gorgeous *and* designed for those with reading difficulties and general learning disabilities. 

I also like how all this stuff goes out of the window when you study a science subject - most of my lecture handouts are in formats that cannot be changed into different fonts, and often that mangles the content. My exams are in a serifed font. I am however allowed to type my exam scripts, and pick what font I want to do so, which is good.

You *can* have form and function in documents using free-to-download fonts - using disability access as an excuse for poor layout choices is lazy, and outdated.
