What happens when you apply eBay thinking to homework?
#9
I took my English Comp course back when I was returning to my 3rd CC. By this time I knew how important being able to express yourself in writing is. I worked hard and got A in both comp1 and 2. I always cringe when I see something written by a supposedly intelligent person with many grammar , spelling capitalization and punctuation mistakes. Don't get me wrong I know I do that here all the time but this is not an assignment.

When I took my GLOBAL Enviro change I had one women who was supposed to be on her last class. Her writing was stream of thought and wandered all over the place. I loved that she really thought y'all was a real word. The problem is when people see morons like this with a degree they wonder how we can be better. Maybe the fact that we say supposedly not supposably doesn't register.
