I dont see the problem
Cutting out the subclause: "Have you attending?"
But arguably, this Lemming's expectations about the perfection of education institutions is a bit high.
Yeah it's a bit awkward, but infuriating? Even mildly infuriating is a stretch.
For sure. I work at a college with a pretty good reputation, and most of the people I work with are the same regular people you'd find working anywhere.
Technically it should be "Have you attended, or are you attending, a college/university?".
I prefer "have/are you attended/ing a college/university? Yes/no."
That would work for strong readers, but all the slashes might confuse weaker readers. Actually, if I wrote the questionnaire, I would write out "college or university" instead of "college/university".
I wouldn't actually prefer that, for the record. Just trying to make a joke about making it worse. If only there were more alternatives to add slashes, it might have been a more obvious joke. 😅
College/university can be inclusive of those who have done / are doing both.
Someone who has attended, or is attending, college and university would have to answer no to "college or university"
Yes! You see it.
Sorry dude, this is a case where "correct" grammar is less clear than just being slightly incorrect.
