Class Policy or "How To Get on Zhenya's Good Side":
|
- use cell phones at your own risk;
- no laptopping due to Surgeon General's Warning:
neighbors of laptop users develop esotropia (or cross-eye);
- feet are allowed on tables and desks only if you
are ready to use these objects to dance;
- don't bring food to class unless you are ready to
share it with your instructors and maybe your classmates;
- respect for all: when I am speaking - I am speaking;
when you are speaking - I am speaking;
- start your email messages to ALL of your colleagues with "Dear ...";
- partying is healthy! (especially if it involves some
physics homeworks, physics discussion groups, or simply celebration of physics!!!);
- let me know whom you are partying with (translation:
always cite your collaborators, whether they are Frodo, Sam, Arwen, Legolas,
or Dr. Wolfson with his body Dr. Pasachoff). Note: partying alone is also welcome
(although not always recommended), in which case you are to cite yourself as
party-study-body!
