breadth requirements

When colleges require students, who may be spending tens of thousands of dollars per year on tuition, to take courses outside their majors in order that they become "well-rounded". Wonderful if your last name is Rockefeller. Hard to justify if your poor mother is scrubbing floors to put you through college.
Breadth requirements are things such as Physics majors being required to take classes in Medieval Literature, or Art majors being required to take Calculus.

Crewing Requirements 

Means your flight isnt going to be leaving in the near future. Chances are the airline crew for your flight arent even in the same city, and wont be untill well after your flight was supposed to land. Usually announced after a "late inbound aircraft" delay and before "engineering requirements" cancellation.
Delta Flight 1182 has been further delayed due to "Crewing Requirements"

system requirements

"Minimum" computer system specs needed for a computer game to play.

A game will never work if you only meet these requirements. To avoid shit-heavy lag, surpass them like crazy.

Do some fecking research before you buy a game to see what you really need.
"Noob, ignore the system requirements. 512 RAM is nothing, everyone knows Battlefield 2 needs 2 gigs to run properly."
