[quote=Anonymous]I am a college professor, and the skill I see most lacking is the ability to write an essay. Not just a book report, but an essay with an argument that is sustained through the paper. Also, students don't know basic rules of writing--how to cite (using quotation marks, block indent, Chicago Manual of Style, footnotes/endnotes, etc.), avoiding passive voice, etc. This is a skill that transcends subject matters.
