I Don't Get Paid Enough

Grading 70+ student projects over the next few days, so don't expect much. After seeing what some of them wrote, I certainly don't....
"The recent success of the Iceland volcano…"

I gave 'em partial credit for being up on current events.

"Back when I was younger we would have to submit a research paper by actually working hands on and digging into books. In today’s world there is no digging for research everything is in our fingertips."

A little trouble with prepositions, or a smart-phone addict?

"Our research is just a click away we no longer have to read a story to see what it is about. We just google the story and we get many websites with synopsis and even reviews."

Ah yes, why bother reading anything or thinking for yourself? Just depend on the wisdom of the masses to tell you what to think. Must be a democrat...

"The article helped me realize how you can never fully understand our computer programs."

Kind of sad, considering that this is an Information Systems course.
Actually, that last one explains a lot of things...
