Is it common for students in undergrad to put what their school is and major in the automatic signature of the e-mail?

Posted by James Bond (aka Igor) (aka Igor) Feb 6 '09, 17:10

What's the point?

I just got another e-mail that said the school name and B.A. in the signature. Why?

The person isn't applying for anything.

Showing off?

My signature is an advertisement for my book, "Later, Skater." Heh. -- nm - Qale Feb 6, 17:20
never seen undergrads do it, but almost every grad student I've ever known did, at least in field-related emails. -- nm - mafic Feb 6, 17:16 2
- I can understand field related e-mails, but just random every day e-mails. Thanks for informing me that you are a bio major. :/ -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Feb 6, 17:17 1
  - constantly changing signatures is a pain in the ass. -- nm - mafic Feb 6, 17:18

- Why? What is the logic behind it? -- nm - James Bond (aka Igor) Feb 6, 17:16 1
  - (guessing) to look more professional? in the business world, everyone does that -- nm - Guy Feb 6, 17:19
