Disappointing I should say. Bagye, it is very embarrassing for a student to fail to draw the line between serious communication and shirty (unserious) communication. If I were in your shoes, I would ignore that email until he/she writes in formal English as per the J.A Bright rules. While doing a techie assignment recently online, I was asked to come up with a 5000 word document on a topic. Imagine if I had used such despicable lingua, would my lecturer have looked at me twice?
A big shame and please lets not heap the blame on the teachers only, but also sms, chatting, twitter, facebook, YouTube e.t.c. When he/she comes to your office, assure them how you have never been and will never be their drinking mate because that form of communication can only be tolerated by brains that are on leave.
