I just wanted to blog about one of my educational pet peeves, email. I emailed one of professors a week ago asking about a very important assignment in class and I never heard back from him. He has sent out two group emails to the whole class though! I sent him a second email just reminding him that I'm waiting on his response, but once again still haven't heard back. My advisor has done the same thing. I will email him about scheduling questions and I will never hear back from him!
I understand that professors have lives just like the students do but I feel like there should be a time frame that you have to answer students in. I believe it is unfair to leave them hanging for a week and after two emails. I have plans to one day teach at the university level and I know that I personally feel like I have to have a certain system set up to make sure I get every email answered in a timely fashion! Any one else have problems with this?
