<\/a>A Note on Email<\/h3>\n
I enjoy corresponding with you and encourage you to get in touch with me early and often with your questions. I strive to respond to emails within 48 hours of receipt. I cannot, however, respond to emails in the evening or on weekends. Please take note of\u00a0these tips<\/a>\u00a0on emailing a professor. In turn, I will extend the same respect to you. I mention this because we\u2019re all human, and sometimes, especially when under stress, we can forget to be aware of each other\u2019s feelings. Etiquette is one way to be sure we treat each other with generosity and respect.<\/p>\n No matter how hard one tries to anticipate every eventuality, things can change (sometimes a lot!) over the course of 10 weeks. An assignment may not work, for example, or readings may not resonate. Because of this, I want you to be aware that the syllabus is not set in stone. I promise to make you aware of changes with plenty of warning, and to be receptive to your concerns.<\/p>\n In the spirit of Universal Design for Learning, I will strive to provide an environment that is equitable and conducive to achievement and learning for all students. I ask that we all be respectful of diverse opinions and of all class members, regardless of personal attribute. I encourage persons with disabilities or particular needs that impact on performance to meet with me to co-design accommodations, if necessary. I ask that we all use inclusive language in written and oral work. Students with disabilities may also want to register with the Office for Students with Disabilities (http:\/\/www.osd. ucla.edu).<\/p>\nA Flexible Syllabus<\/h3>\n
