I dont use cursive that much (i did in college as it was quicker to take lecture notes with than print).
BUT I'd say it's still necessary I was reading a few years back (4 or 5 or so). An article that said as a whole people are losing individual writing styles BECAUSE nobody (nobody as in younger generation, those who are students now), WRITES by hand. it's all email/typing up things/texting etc.
Hell I have friends in college now that are only a couple years younger than me and they've all bought laptops to take notes on as oppose to just writing them down. (and when i was in college only 3 years ago NO ONE in my class used laptops to take down notes. maybe just my class but who knows).
I dunno, kind of eerie to think that one of the things that gives us individuality is going by the wayside because of technology.
