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.
