I love coming to college because to me, it's a place of learning and serious conversations. I was walking to class when I saw a colorful poster. Leaning closer in, I saw it was advertising a TEXTING contest. I wanted to tear it down and rant about it...especially after dealing with a student who was a senior making mistakes not even high school students make in essays. But that is another story....
Now before you say, "That's not so bad," think a minute. They are seeing who can text the fastest within a time period, for hundred dollars in school credit. Wouldn't this encourage text talk in the process because it is allegedly faster?
I truly am curious as to whether this would be a bad thing. In a high school, I would understand, but in college?
Discuss, rant, rave about this.

I heard someone currently holds a world record in texting--less than 26 seconds.
Alas, it's the idiotic that champions the status quo...how effing sad, really. sad

Natsuri I heard someone currently holds a world record in texting--less than 26 seconds. Alas, it's the idiotic that champions the status quo...how effing sad, really. sad 26 seconds? Wow. Even for a typist that'd be difficult. Though you are right...it is indeed sad.
