Here's a post to complement the challenge of communication between Universities and staff posted earlier. It's about the communication between lecturers and students:
| 
What
  the Lecturer says: | 
What the student hears: | 
| 
Remember that you are “reading” for a
  degree | 
Google
  it | 
| 
Make sure that you research this topic fully | 
Google it | 
| 
Make sure that you catch up on missed
  lectures | 
There’s
  bound to be something on YouTube | 
| 
A deadline is a deadline | 
You can have an extension | 
| 
Please come and see me during my “office
  hours” | 
Drop
  in anytime | 
| 
Next week we will have a guest speaker from industry | 
Ah, a long weekend…at
  last | 
| 
Plagiarism will be taken seriously | 
Voyeurism?  What did he say? | 
| 
There are no “right” answers in real life | 
Keep pestering me and I’ll
  give you the right answer | 
| 
The only way to get a good degree is to
  work very hard | 
3
  years of relaxation and they’ll give me a certificate…what’s
  not to like? | 
| 
There are alternative courses of study if this one does not suit you | 
Google it |
