uh, I think option-p is easier than $pi$

Absolutely agree, it's amazing how many students fiddle with Pages/Word when they could live happy lives using LaTeX.

LaTeX is not useful to students if professors expect papers in .docx for editing and journals/conferences expect submissions in .docx

agreed. i just started using LaTeXiT a month or so ago for doing my calculus homework.. it's great! no set of keyboard shortcuts is going to create the kind of complex equations that i have to type up. here's link to a wikibooks page:

it's very helpful for learning the necessary syntax.

System Preferences > Language & Text
Enable the 'Keyboard & Character Viewer'
Enable 'Show Input menu in menu bar'
Then select 'Show Character Viewer' from the menu bar and you get access to all unicode characters in the current font. There's even a built-in section for math and a favorites you can change yourself.
This mostly only works with Cocoa applications, though. But you can use the 'Show Keyboard Viewer' to find letters for the current keyboard layout.

A few months ago, I spilled some water (yes, just water) on my keyboard and two of my keys died: the Mute/F7 key and the 0/) key. Fortunately I never use mute or F7, and I can easily use the numpad for 0 (although I still haven't trained my brain to instinctively use that), so the only thing I can't type is ). For a while I just clicked the key in the keyboard viewer (accessible from the input menu), but I searched and searched for a [graphical] way to remap keys. Finally I found Ukelete and, although its not simple and there was a bit of a learning curve, it ended up working great for me! I just remapped the ) character to Opt-Shift-9 (though I think I may change it to shift-dash(-) since that seems a bit more intuitive and I use the right paren a bit more often than I use underscore.) I meant to post a hint like this for a while and never got around to it. Thanks for doing it for me!

I do the same thing! I use the option key to access greek letters in my layout, and while I do use LaTeX for typesetting things, there are still MANY times when it is not practical and entering unicode symbols makes more sense. For instance in typing in a discussion forum I can quickly type ∇Φ=0 or ∫r(θ)dθ=π or whatever without needing plugins, or extra steps to render and upload images. I can also include symbols in plain text documents such as emails.

+1 to Latex.
However, you do know that the default US keyboard has access to all sorts of characters, albeit not every character you may need.
It has built-in support for dead keys (ü,é,â), along with Greek (µ) and other commonly used symbols (like §, ©, ¡, etc.) by utilizing the Option and Option+Shift modifier(s).
To look at them, open up the Keyboard Viewer via the Input menu (you may need to enable it first from Input Sources in Lang & Text Sys Prefs). Now hold down Option or Option + Shift. You can see what keys input what symbols, with the dead keys in orange. Of course, you could view this in Ukelele (which is a nice program, by the way) and manipulate them to your hearts desire, but it is nice to know how to input special characters using the standard layout.
