I have absolutely refused to every sign my emails with "best." I think it's some sort of rite of passage into the professional world, in which case, I have never arrived. But, I have to admit, it has grown on me a bit.Heather Sandershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00771730375740644182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2215388782844412226.post-19337677037374032312009-09-14T12:42:45.202-07:002009-09-14T12:42:45.202-07:00I actually use this all the time in writing profes...I actually use this all the time in writing professional emails. To me it means best of everything to you. (Just fill in the blank for yourself). That way all bases are covered with whatever 'best' thing they might be needing.Heidihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00180478271589872212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2215388782844412226.post-46928444946300445922009-09-13T11:42:22.082-07:002009-09-13T11:42:22.082-07:00My interpretation of "Best".

I believe it is meant as encouragement and imspirtation, to not only do their best but also achieve their best and that you believe that they are the best therefore they will be and do their very best.

I wouldn't be surprised if "best" is short for that. I like "I'm the best" best of your options though.

By putting "Best", and then your name, a professor that your students look up to, you are threatening them to do their best in your class simply because you say so...
