Use an external DVD drive, use DVD sharing from a networked computer, or download it from Microsoft and activate it with your product key :)

Download Libreoffice
 
You can download the ISO image from the Microsoft site, and simply mount it (ie. double click it) and install as if you were using a .dmg file.
 
For me, my university offers microsoft office free to students with a Mac. I just took my air in and they loaded Microsoft Office via USB in about 5 minutes.

Check to see if your college has this program, I know most do.
