"Well, I was educated at Texas Tech, and at Texas Tech (and the rest of the free world), grammar and proper punctuation are a good part of writing. I guess Alabama is different. If they hired me, they wouldn't have to pay an editor as well as a writer."

Even Harper Lee needed an editor.

Besides, I majored in political science.

But I have won a few peer reviewed awards for my writing. Maybe I should of majored in English.

"Maybe I should of majored in English."

There it is again. Should HAVE. It needs a verb, and the verb is HAVE. There is no such expression as "should of".
