Bitter (ex)-student? Someone screwed up obviously, but I've even seen Government of Canada things with spelling mistakes on them. I guess we live in a BLATANTLY bad country.

Yeah, well, it's also not strictly grammatically correct to put multiple punctuation marks like the question mark and exclamation mark together.

We know you're doing this to annoy people, but:
"This the standards at McMaster tsk tsk."
If you're going to complain about mistakes in spelling at least be able to write English properly.

A little off-topic but I'm not too thrilled with McMaster's website. Compare it with http://www.mcgill.ca/, for example.

Our main website looks sooo bad. They did do a really good job for the prospective students pages. I was really hoping that the whole site would look like that though, but NOPE, only that page.
