* Use my home email. Suddenly, I can no longer check the office from home.
* Please use the email addresses above. For fastest service, send your email to both.
* Please don’t text me, I will probably never get it. In an emergency, you can try it.
* And please, don’t put me on your LinkedIn group.
* But by all means, please feel free to email and to call. If it ‘rings’, I will pick-it-up and answer
it. (If you call the office number, it immediately transfers to my cell phone. Again, if possible, I
will answer.)
Office Hours:
I will be in the classroom before class, and I will certainly stay afterwards as well.
Re. Blackboard
You will need a University account. See your TAMU-CT home page for instructions as to how
to obtain an account.
Re. McGraw-Hill Connect:
Here is what I got from the McGraw-Hill rep: There are lots of digital resources available,
starting with this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiGRffHfmlY&feature=youtu.be
This one walks students through Connect registration.
There is also a success site for students with lots of resources here:
http://www.connectstudentsuccess.com/
---Anyway, after you get logged into Blackboard and go to take a quiz, you are then transferred to
the Connect system. When you get there you will get several options including:
1. Buy a used textbook and pay $50 to McGraw-Hill for access to the quizzes all semester.
2. Buy a textbook with Connect included in the package. That ‘apparently’ comes with each
new text, and it adds $50 to the price of the text.

class, however, you can take the Bb chapters faster, or slower...it is up to you. There is no
penalty for proceeding at a faster or slower pace.

7.0 Drop Policy
If you discover that you need to drop this class, you must go to the Records Office and ask for
the necessary paperwork. Professors cannot drop students; this is always the responsibility of
the student. The record’s office will give a deadline for which the form must be returned,
completed and signed. Once you return the signed form to the records office and have waited 24
hours, you need to then get into Duck Trax and confirm that you are no longer enrolled. If you
are still enrolled, Follow-Up with the records office immediately. You are to attend class until
the procedure is complete to avoid penalty for absence. Should you miss the deadline or fail to
follow the proper procedures, you may receive an F in the course.
