Course Policy
Email address:  As soon as possible,  please send me an email, from which I will take your email address to add to the list of email addresses for the class. If you have not yet sent me your email address, please do so as soon as possible. Be sure to include your NAME and your COURSE and section number.  Also, be sure to indicate in your email that this is the email address you want me to use for my email address list, since I do not check every email I receive to see if you are on my email list.
If you have sent me your email address and you are not receiving email from me, let me know.
Please note that when I send email to the class, everyone in the class might be able to see all email addresses.

I welcome email inquiries from students about homework questions, or any other questions you may have about the course. If you ask me a question about homework, however, please remember two things:
  • I don't necessarily have with me when I read your email the textbook or the worksheet which describes the problem you are asking me about. Even if the entire details of the assignment are written out online, it may be inconvenient to open my browser and check the assignment. So please give me a description of the problem you are asking me about.
  • Inquiries received the night before the assignment is due might not be answered in time to help you with homework due the following day.

Students with Disabilities: If you anticipate issues related to the format or requirements of this course, please meet with me to discuss ways to ensure your full participation in the course. If you determine that formal, disability-related accommodations are necessary, it is very important that you be registered with Disability Resources (621-3268) and notify me of your eligibility for reasonable accommodations. We can then plan how best to coordinate your accommodations.
