Email etiquette
You will need an email account to communicate with me and with other members of the class. Please note that you will be responsible for information that I or other members of the class send to your CSU email address. If you prefer to use another account, you should set up the CSU account to forward to your primary address.
You also should be aware that email is not a secure medium. A good rule of thumb: don't write anything in an email message that you wouldn't also write on a postcard.
As email becomes a more important part of our professional lives, it becomes more important to ensure that our messages are efficient, accurate, and effective. You should get in the habit, now, of organizing and saving all messages that you send or receive as a student or as an employee.
Every message that you write for this class should include a concise and accurate subject line that indicates the topic of the message. Every message should, at minimum, include your name at the bottom of the message. (Most email programs have a signature feature that will add a standard footer to all your messages.) In general, each message should deal with only one subject or piece of information.
In addition, please include "CMS 4410" and a detailed subject line in every piece of email you send to me. This will insure that my email program does not label your message as spam.
