Center for Engaged Teaching and Learning

Example of a netiquette statement: 

It is my sincerest intention to help you in any way I can. I want you to be successful in the course, and for that reason and many others, I will respond to your emails most often within 24 hours. However, please be advised I have many students and teach many classes. Therefore, I ask that you are as efficient and polite in your emails as possible. Regarding efficiency, please email from your college account, include an appropriate subject line, the name of the course, the name of the assignment you’re asking about (if that’s what you’re doing), and as many specifics as possible, so that I can understand your question and respond quickly. Regarding politeness, please address me by name, include a greeting, be respectful in your language, and sign the email with your own name.
