This was bickering? All the references to "trade schools" "tech graduates" and the like went over my australian head. What is this fight about?

And on a side note, I don't belive that it is correct to use first person in papers, even when you are presenting your beliefs. It takes credibility from the paper. Well, we know what the prof. did when he (or she) handed the paper back: :boohoo: |

It gets worse. A few years ago, a guy sent an application to get into an honors dorm at a university with similar statements. I never actually got to see it, but Dr. Retard (who posts here on the philosophy boards) did and said it was pretty bad.

pz, Didymus, we aren't bickering. This is all in fun, and has to do with the long-running football rivalry between Ga. Tech (the Georgia Institute of Technology, known to those with low and beetled brows as the North Avenue Trade School for Wayward Boys) and Georgia (the University of Georgia, whose women's dorms would be called whorehouses save that the women don't charge.)
All this goes back to long before any of us were born, including the jokes. And before you start badmouthing Ga. Tech, I should point out that Tech has been rated the second or third best technological school in the country for many years; only MIT is consistently rated better. (And if Georgia wouldn't waste so much money on their football team, they might be a pretty fair school too.) |

Isn't it just a bit unethical to scan someone's college paper (without their permission) onto the internet so it can be ridiculed by people?

Because it obviously is. Well, except to retards I guess, so no wonder you'd say "no".
