[quote=Anonymous]Would never occur to me to think Oxford/serial comma = parent edited it; in fact, if anything I think the Oxford comma is coming back into fashion and that people our age use it less. Count me as another editor who is pro-serial comma. It never hurts to use it and sometimes is important for clarity. Why bother to determine case by case when you could just use it all the time and not worry? But I also agree that it doesn’t matter at all in terms of admissions. Pick an approach and go with it. The most important thing is clarity and consistency.[/quote]
