The catch? Well, you do have to be a student (with an .edu e-mail address like siena.edu). And Microsoft will look for proof that you're taking classes. But their main purpose is to get you used to using their products. Sneaky, but that's common with other software companies, too.
Staff and Faculty members: you can't take advantage of this deal. If you're interested in using Office 2007, contact I&TS.
