Here we go again…

School is back in session and I’ve already seen the writing blooper that will be the one to beat for this academic year. One of my students wrote that she’s convinced that registering for my class was “define intervention.”

I replied to her note, and told her I thought she probably meant ‘divine’ intervention, and if that was what she meant, I was flattered, though it was probably going to take more than supernatural help for her to get an A in my class if that was representative of her writing skills.

I also noted to her that spell check was not her fiend.

I mean friend.

Welcome to another school year!
