Part of it depends on what kind of job is she looking to do after college. Is she going to be in the sort of job that she is going to be writing memo’s to others on a regular basis? If yes then she really needs to do it by herself. If however she really isn’t going to be doing much writing then it is probably Ok. For obvious reasons I don’t proofread my kids writing. In my former life as a computer programmer whenever I had a memo that was going to top management my boss looked it over just to make sure. And DH is a really good memo writer so his bosses boss has him rewrite/ proofread stuff. However in the end it’s better to know how to do it yourself.
