(yes, I'm avoiding a link to Failbook):

facebook post: Luca Mtakatifu asks: "How on earth does 'e.g' stand for 'for example?" Merriam-Webster replies: "E.g., comes from the Latin 'exempli gratia,' which means 'for example.' Also, 'i.e.' comes from the Latin 'id est,' which means 'that is.' Way to remember: e.g. = example given i.e. = in essence

I told Northwestern that if it planned to cave to please do so by December 31

And it will include the usual surrender of academic freedom tempered by a bullshit assurance
