Communication

To comply with FERPA guidelines, please use your ccny email to correspond with me. Include your name and section number, and EMPLID if you need administrative actions done. Do not share with me your personal lives or other private information. If you must miss an exam due to illness, state that and that only. It's inappropriate and unprofessional to share details about vomiting, migraines, bowel movements, etc. Keep that between you and your medical provider or family, not your physics teacher.
