Re: Nitty Professors
[ QUOTE ]
I'm in a geography class where if you don't address the professor "Dear Dr. ..." at the begining of an email, he won't respond. If you use the word "like" or phrase "you know" more than twice in a presentation, you "get a very bad grade." We've all had em. They usually float around in the liberal arts nonsense majors. Example from past nits: My paper says "The history of mankind...", but she crosses out mankind and writes "HUMANKIND" in a stern note with a grade reduction. This is the [censored] I hate about college. [/ QUOTE ] My take: a) the "dear dr." thing is absurd b) using "like" or "you know" in an oral presentation gets a very bad grade: excellent policy. Learn how to speak. c) mankind = HUMANKIND + grade reduction. Unfortunate, but not unreasonable. Same rule would have applied in my critical writing class, but prof spent time discussing it in class and gave a hand-out. |
