This reads like a 4th graders book report. Or someone who has to write an essay for a standardized exam, but that exam is for elementary school.

Ribsauce posted:How about killing off minimum length requirements for papers while you are at it? As soon as you get in the real world everyone wants their poo poo as short as simple as possible. If I taught a class in the business school I'd have a maximum page length...and it would never exceed 1 page and for most assignments would probably be half a page. Because minimum length requirements help push students into being better writers by forcing them to go into more detail while doing what you say would make people's writing ability regress

I can't get people to meet the minimum or maximum length of every submission call for my projects, so anything is bound to be a lost cause. And good luck getting anyone to give you a list of bullet points. Always someone that sends you like 12 paragraphs of 3-5 sentences! Just because you put a dot in front of it doesn't make it a bullet point.

I guess I just mean in the business school. No paper should be any longer than necessary and like Sash! says, extra credit for using bullet points correctly. Nothing makes me hit "return to sender" quicker than "Data sources include source 1, source 2, source 3....source 7" Use the bullet points, the single greatest button in the Microsoft Word toolbar after spellcheck! In English or Creative Writing knock yourself out with long papers. It just sucks most firms have to spend their first year teaching new graduates to write everything with less words. I had to write a 10 page paper in a business class. If I knocked on the door of every CEO in America I wonder if I could find one who reads every word of a 10 page document. edit sorry to start a derail. We were bitching about this very thing last week at my firm. Ribsauce fucked around with this message at 00:56 on Aug 18, 2015 |

It's really hard to not hit the minimum length for a paper in my experience. Executive summaries and the like are important (and are arguably much harder to do) but they're not the end be all.

goten1214 3 years ago in reply to Speegs23 @Speegs23 55-28, you piece of poo poo. We own you. Always have, always will. You're Baylor. Get that? Say it with me "I'm Baylor". You're a joke at everything. You paid a lot of money to go to a lovely school just so that you didn't wind up at tceh. Your life is a joke. Your football team is a joke. A&M's 6-6 team HUMILIATED you. A&M has a 68-31 record vs Baylor. But we all know you're pathetic and live through Texas to beat A&M. Just Baylor going Baylor on us... i like this comment from 3 years ago

I should be geeked about MSU starting the season being ranked so high, but I see stuff like this and know that success will only enable awful things to be said or done. Can't bring myself to be that emotionally invested when I can't prove that crimes aren't being covered up and that we don't have administrators/ fans who will circle the wagons to protect their primary source of income/self-worth at the cost of basic human decency. This thread is a constant reminder to keep pride for my chosen sports teams at a minimum.

ProFootballTalk Forums posted:donte stallworth got a 2nd chance why shouldn’t rice , in a society that proclaims equal rights for all honestly punching a woman should not result in more of a penalty than punching a man. If women truly are equal then they cannot be perceived as weaker by getting harsher punishment than were a crime committed against a man. Peterson is welcomed back with opened arms for switching a defenseless 4 year old and ray rice is a pariah for smacking down his wife who instigated the fracas . Now please do not assume this is an open invite or approval to slap around your woman. I find his actions pathetic but either women hide behind their apron strings or they are equal and if they are equal then punching one is no more of an issue than any other bar fight where a player punches a man .
