Grammar Summary

After reading all of the class posts, it seems that everyone interviewed felt that grammar was a rather important skill to have in the job market after college. Effective communication is important whether it is through writing or speaking. A few people said that by demonstrating good grammar skills, you can gain more respect from your co-workers as well as anyone else whom you interact with from day to day. For example if you are a doctor, demonstrating good grammar skills when communicating with your patients can gain you more trust from them versus a doctor with poor grammar. Patients would tend to think that you weren't as well educated as others in your field. Your writing not only affects you but your company as well. The company you work for expects you to present yourself professionally as well as them.
