Default Today's youth spells badly

Today I found an interesting article on the Web about the bad spelling of many University students. The spelling skills of many of them are so bad they have to be taught proper English in order to be able to write passable reports, essays, etcetera. Many say SMS, Facebook and the like are to blame for this. Others say people don't get taught proper spelling in high school anymore. What do you think? Is this a big problem in your country, and why/why not?
