Email Etiquette

When sending emails, students are asked to follow few general important rules:

PROPER SALUTATION

  • Always start out your email with a polite “Dear” or “Hello” followed by your professor’s name/title (Dr. XYZ, Professor XYZ, etc.). If you’re not sure what their proper title is, using “Professor” followed by their last name is almost always a safe bet.
INTRODUCE YOURSELF
  • It can never hurt to give a brief introduction. Simply giving your preferred name, year, major, and the course you’re enrolled in can provide a great deal of context.
USE CORRECT GRAMMAR AND SPELLING
  • An email is more formal than a text or message on social media, so be sure this is reflected in your writing (no abbreviations/acronyms). Be sure not only to use spelling/grammar check, but also proofread the email.
USE A FORMAL CLOSING
  • Conclude your email with a closing, such as “Best regards”, “Sincerely”, or “Thank you” followed by your name.

It goes without saying that addressing me with "Dear Antonio" or, even worse, "Dear Fiori" is a great way to get no response at all.
