Really? In the pre-calculus and calculus classes I took at Santa Monica College five years ago, we were expressly forbidden to use graphing calculators. The administration's stance was that they wanted to make sure we knew how to do it the old-fashioned way. I would've given anything to use a graphing calculator on some of those stupid toroid shape problems on my exams.
