Some college admissions departments are now asking prospective students to provide 25-word, Tweet-worthy college essays.

I remember having the option to write my entrance essay on a “word processor” and save it to a 3.5″ floppy disk and mail it back to the admissions office. It was that or a hand-written version.

Wut do ya think — are these questions too silly?
