Syllabus Information

From the beginning of the quarter, faculty can be proactive in setting expectations and demonstrating respect for LGBTQ+ students in syllabi.  Consider including the information below.

Expectation of respect

All of us are responsible for being respectful of everyone in this class, including during lab and work group time when I am not present.  I expect all students to make their best efforts to pronounce one another’s names correctly, and to respect one another’s pronouns. If you have questions or concerns related to these expectations, please speak with me.
