Notes from the Ivory Tower

The following is an actual e-mail transcript between student and professor.  The names and events have been changed to preserve the privacy of the individuals.


Professor: Ok, thanks for the attachment.  How is your grandmother?

Student: She's not doing well, she was moved to hospice care today and she can go at any time.

Professor: I'm very sorry to hear that.  Take care!!

Really dude?!  Two exclamation marks in reply to a grandparent death??!!  Should have also added "tootles!!" and "smooches!!".  TTFN!!!  TTYL!!!
