Oops: School misspells education on diplomas
More than 300 graduates of Westlake High School in Ohio received diplomas last week that said "educaiton" instead of "education."

Principal Timothy Freeman tells The Plain Dealer that the printer made the mistake after administrators had proofed an earlier version of the diplomas. "I was sick to my stomach," he says.

6. I would LOVE to have a misspelling like that on my HS diploma!
I'd bring that thing out anytime someone came over to visit. Hell, I'd leave it right there on the coffee table.
