New (and experienced) Internet users should always follow accepted
rules of network communication. Explore some of the links on this
page to get a good introduction to accepted Net conduct.
In this course there are several rules one should always follow
when communicating with email:
- Email is NOT postal mail
Do NOT always assume that email messages reach their destination.
If you expect a reply and do not receive one, follow up on the
message.
- Instructors and GTAs teach other courses
Always identify yourself clearly. Start your subject with a course
number, (eg. CS1044) followed by a brief concise subject heading.
Do NOT omit email subject lines it is considered very rude and
feeble-minded behavior. (Include a section number if there are
multiple sections of a course taught by the same
instructor/gta.)
- Email Work
Since it is very easy to save email (and easy to lose), students
are expected to make backup copies of all communication related to
the course until after the end of the term and they have received
their course grade. Failure to do so when a communication is
needed later in the course, (eg. if a dispute or other
circumstance arises), will NOT constitute an excuse.
