In general: If your professor has a PhD, then you can call them Dr. _______. Otherwise, call them Professor or Prof. In my case, you can call me Dr. Milne. "Milne" is pronounced as one syllable: "MILLn" (like the author of Winnie the Pooh!). You can also opt to call me the Filipino version of Dr., which is Doktora, (pronounced Dok-TOH-ruh) or the Spanish version, Profesora or Profe.

You are expected to check your email/Brightspace regularly for class-related announcements, including last minute cancellations, deadline extensions, etc. (The Brightspace messaging system is not consistent, so please use UIndy e-mail.)
When sending me emails, always give your full name, class name, and section number. Add the relevant inquiry in the Subject line. Reread your email before sending; make sure the language and format are appropriate to the rhetorical situation. Between Monday and Friday, expect a response within 48 hours. However, I typically do not check email over the weekend, and will address any weekend inquiries as soon as possible the following week. If I do not reply within these timeframes, please resend the message.
In addition to email and conferences (in person or online), I am also available on Twitter, Zoom, or Skype. Feel free to make an appointment!
I didn't write this article, but it feels like I could have.
