– Hei guyz
– Newz from the faculty
– Recently came to light that Engineering is a concise profession
– People fluff up deliverables to meet word counts
– We are super busy, blunt people
– Ain’t nobody got time to waste on sentences
– All reports, papers and assignments must now be in point form
– Scrap the “the”s
– Leave out the punctuation
– Skip dat BS
– Anticipated paper savings from work term reports are 97%
– Higher than spring employment rate… ha ha
– The new system goes into effect August 2017
– To be on trial for 3 years
– So start writing yo final exams in point form
– Especially the STV ones
– Trim dem essays down to the keyest of key words
– And the fluid mechanics ones
– But remember not to confuse the -’s with minus signs
– Deliverables will lose marks if points go to the next line on Word
– The use of too many “the”s will lead to a fail
– This article probably fails, good thing it’s not marked
– The admissions AIF will also be submitted in point form, aww yiss
– If you have feedback on the system
– A huge post will be made on Facebook and it will explode with traffic
– But you can only join the conversation if you are civil
– Buildings-bridges-rivers-roads civil tho, not polite civil
– Something something last IW update
– This VP is done
– She might still want to change PD
– Peace out
– Have fun
– May your technical writing be super concise
– It’ll get your point(s) across
