another example of computer-oriented backasswardsness around here

Today via email from our admin. asst.:
I posted a list of this semester's degree candidates next to the mailboxes
in the main office. Please check to see if you have students on the list so that
you may submit their grades by the graduation grades deadline.

Um... she obviously knows where her computer is and what email is and how to create a document (assuming the list isn't written out by hand - I have yet to go consult it). So how big an intuitive leap would it take to actually send us the list electronically?

'Cause I certainly don't have enough little crap errands to run around doing all the time already. To say nothing of the stupidity of then copying the names down on a scrap of paper or something... Unless it's tacked loosely enough that I can take it down and slip it thru the pdf email scanner. Ha! I'm a rebel, what can I say?
