Let's see if I understand a statement from a student's
viewpoint:
1) one of my professors required that we sign up
2) What a great move!
3) I learned more about the "real world" of tech
writing
4) really got a feel for the field.
5) sorry, guys...none of this justifies the cost of
one pizza per year.
What the **** are we thinking?
If you can't justify $10 per year, find another field.
I understand that the companies that have you digging
ditches will supply all the shovels you need at no
cost.
sheesh.
