wait, seriously?

Overheard yesterday while walking on campus: "then I'm going to some 'vie-gil' thing or whatever."
(That's "vigil" for all of us who happen to give a fig about pronunciation.)
I shake my head. I could make this into a serious discussion exploring the responsibilities of public education and the responsibilities of the individual to learn, but instead I'll just cringe.
