Everyone who’s registered for classes at Wash U knows one thing: the WebSTAC course listing tells you absolutely nothing about the course you are about to take. Or does it? Could there actually be a secret language, giving you insider-information on the courses, simply waiting to be decoded? MORE »
Acronyms That Will Prevent Me From Graduating
Allow me to rephrase… Abbreviations that WashU uses to stop me from graduating. Specifically, abbreviations that make me fail… At the very least, evidence that suggests WashU truly wants me to break down into hysterics in the middle of Whispers. QA: Quantitatively Annoying.
