I think that is one of the telltale signs that someone went to university. I know when I first graduated and entered the workforce there were people with no post-secondary and their written work was atrocious. I think that regardless of your degree, you can't really get away with that in university. Maybe fine arts (because a picture is worth a thousand words! I'll show myself out...)
