Besides the misspelling ...

Is he also addressing your multiple personality disorder?

Aren't you only 1 student? Chat Icon

He was replying to several students. I guess a few of us made the mistake of not understanding when the prepay period was, since mindreading is not on the curriculum

Re: Nasty email from the administrator of my grad school....ew!

It is not terrible but the misspelling would have me questioning my choice of schools.

The letter doesn't seem nasty; your professor seems to need a spellcheck. Seriously, I hope he's not an English/Literature professor!!!

There is no reason to use !!! in any type of business setting.

So while it doesn't seem nasty, it does appear to be unprofessional.

forget it. I don't know how to read correctly.

Aside from the capitalization and !!! I would say it was simple.

but yes, I would say a tad rude b/c of their use.

I read it as unprofessional because of the typos, caps, and exclamation points... but I don't read it as rude.

I totally agree. I write letters/emails to students all the time and never use caps or !!! even if they ask me the same questions over and over.

While I think the email was unprofessional due to typos and punctuation- I think it was pretty nice of the administrator to remind you all that you were not registered properly. I think that the email he sent was likely sent out of frustration on his part.

I know that by graduate school, students would be expected to know the procedures- or to make sure they are aware of any changes. I'm assuming that something was sent out previously outlining the new pre-pay registration?

The coddling of undergrad is done, sadly. The bulk of the responsibility lies with the student once you are in graduate school.
