Email

Email is convenient, fast, and reliable.  When sending e-mail to the instructor or TA, please begin the subject line with CS7: to help us organize our emails.

Sending E-mail to the Instructor

You are welcome to send me email when you have a question.  I will do my best to answer promptly;  however, to avoid being swamped, I will follow this e-mail reply policy:
  • Office visits take priority over e-mail. Thus if I have email pending and also students waiting at my office, I will attend to the students first and then e-mail.
  • I will give priority to e-mail of general concern. Thus e-mail pertaining to important/relevant class material or problems with assignments will be handled first. Questions that are narrow in scope, such as debugging problems will be handled when (and sometimes if) possible.
  • If you don't hear back in a week, email me again. I'll do my best to keep up, but sometimes things get out of control.
