My girlfriend started taking a Masters in a college this year. In her course the faculty have shown some disorganization and computer illiteracy since day one but the latest one…completely killed me.
Besides their personal college e-mail, they wanted a platform to make announcements for all the course (20 students). I can think of a thousand ways to do this. Hell, even a Facebook group would be better. But no…
They have an e-mail address (like Masters_name@college.duh) where all the info is sent and EVERYBODY has the password to enter the e-mail and check the inbox.
That is it. I have no words. I think this is the most idiotic and dumb thing I’ve ever seen in IT.
Nah, I’d sign up for cat memes or something, then set up filtering rules to delete everything except for the cat memes. If they’re dumb enough to think the shared inbox is a good solution, they might not know about filters.
