I've heard that the academic version upgrade is only $35 (+$.5.50) if
the academic version of Word 3 was bought before a certain date.  If you
are paying $50 for the upgrade you should be getting all the stuff a
regular upgrade includes.  Though, I suppose that if you didn't reserve
an academic upgrade by the deadline (the deadline for getting a regular
upgrade for $50 instead of $75), the academic version might then cost $50.
