I am happy to reply to text messages of an urgent nature. If you are texting, please be sure to explain your situation clearly. I invite students to provide their cell numbers as a means of being contacted or so that you may contact me in case of emergency or urgent issues. Sometimes I may need to contact students as a group in the event that class must be cancelled, or sometimes students need to contact me if there is an issue which requires immediate attention. Please note that participating in text communication is ENTIRELY OPTIONAL and NOT REQUIRED in this course. You do not need to provide your cell number if you do not wish to do so.
Please see the FSSH Professional Guidelines Document in BlackBoard. This document assists with your preparation as a student and professional.
