Because it's part of the human condition. Look at it this way, if it weren't for dumbas$es like this in the world - we wouldn't look so damn smart.
It's the Uni's money, mock them and move on.
I don't buy it.
I wasn't selling.
This is an issue either you take concern with or not. My problem is how long before some of the academic community at UT starts making it "mandatory" even though it's an optional policy?
I mean, we're talking something to decidedly 'tarded it should never have gotten out of her "My Documents" folder. Much less to the website of a major institution.
When it doesn't we'll talk. Otherwise it really pisses me off to see tuition rise every year knowing dumb****'s like these get a paycheck.
And i'm saying that there are still far bigger wastes of money. I think this resonates something fierce with a lot of you because the very idea makes you uncomfortable.
Then don't send your kids to UT. Let their poor decisions haunt them.
Revisit your definition of "driving" and get back to me. I wouldn't give a damn about using those pronouns if I were a UT student again. Funny enough, I don't have to change out my Manpon over it either.
