I used to teach the TeX User Group LaTeX classes around 1989–93. The students were almost entirely math department secretaries who were charged with typing up professors' handwritten manuscripts. When I did a couple rounds of grad school in 2002–6, both unis had a department secretary but they worked strictly administrative tasks for the department as a whole (and to a lesser extent for the department chair). There wasn't a prof who didn't do their own typing.
