COMMUNICATION:<br />

All enrolled students are provided with a <strong>Saddleback</strong> <strong>College</strong> email<br />

address. You may access your email address through Mysite. Please<br />

make sure that you know how to use and access your email using your<br />

school email address before the class begins. I will use this email<br />

address to communicate with you. Information, feedback and other<br />

vital information will be sent to you on a regular basis. It is necessary<br />

that you check your email on a regular or daily basis.<br />

When you contact me, please identify yourself with your full name,<br />

class name, and ticket number. This will ensure a more prompt<br />

response. If you do not provide this information it will delay my ability<br />

to respond to you.<br />

I recommend that you utilize your <strong>Saddleback</strong> <strong>College</strong> email account<br />

when emailing me, because other email services (e.g., Hotmail) may<br />

block replies from me. In addition, I can only discuss grade related<br />

information with you by email if you email me from your <strong>Saddleback</strong><br />

email account.<br />

This <strong>syllabus</strong> is tentative and is subject to change at the professor’s<br />

discretion. Students are responsible for noting any changes announced<br />

on Blackboard.<br />
