Communication

Office Hours and Email Correspondence

You are encouraged to see me during office hours. You can make an appointment to meet with me by sending an email to [email protected]. If you are unable to meet during office hours, email me to discuss alternative dates/times. All emails should include the course number in the subject line of the email. Email correspondence: I will make efforts to reply to emails sent M-F from 9 AM – 5 PM within 48 hours of receipt. If I can, I will respond more quickly, but please plan ahead with this 48-hour lead time in mind, and do not expect an immediate reply late at night or over the weekend.

Communication

The most effective way to reach me outside of office hours is via email. When communicating via email, please remember to be professional in your tone. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have a Lehman or CUNY email in place and that you check it on a daily basis. I regularly send any updates to the syllabus or other notifications via email using Blackboard.

Lecture Slides

I use slides to focus the lectures, communicate some of the material, and prompt discussion. I normally upload slides to to the course website the next day or two of class. But note that the slides themselves contain only a small part of the lecture material – hence the importance of attending class and doing readings for each class.
