All written work is proof-read before it is turned in. Just because an essay is printed on a laser printer, it is not a final copy unless it has been proofread . I do not know everything , even in courses I have taught many times. College should be treated as a job , in order to practice punctuality, neatness, reasoning skills, computer skills, communication skills, decorum, and all of the other things that make liberal arts graduates employable. I should be available to students through office hours, additional appointments, telephone calls, or e-mail.
All students know what is in the syllabus for each class they take.
Students who do not find me by casually dropping by my office, will try one of the many other ways I make myself available, including hours posted on the door of my office and on my web site. Students have access to computers, either at home or at the College, and they have some ability to use them. Students who are unfamiliar with computers will avail themselves of the free computer training available through the Information Services Department. Students with computer problems will seek help from computer specialists, friends, or me. All students have e-mail accounts, and they check them frequently.
