It is recommended that all CoE Faculty and Instructors take the following steps when preparing for classes:

1)  Provide information as part of the course syllabus regarding course policies in the case of a campus closing or suspension of classes:

Starting in the fall 2009 semester, you should include the following statement in the syllabus of each course that you teach:

"In the event of a major campus emergency, course requirements, deadlines and grading percentages are subject to changes that may be necessitated by a revised semester calendar or other circumstances.  Here are ways to get information about changes in this course." (Describe how your students can get information remotely here.)

2)  Establish, announce, and test a means of contacting students and teaching teams

3)  Be prepared to work from home
