Notes about e-mail:

1) I will only communicate with John Jay e-mail addresses; if you send it from some other address, it might get lost in the spam...

2) Knowing when I will check my e-mail can help you in timing your work.

I will almost always be on-line during the following hours and will check e-mail:

(M. & W.): 9:45 - 10:45 AM, 3 - 5 PM

(Tu & Th.): 9 - 5.

(Friday): Sometime between 9 and 5 for 45 minutes

(weekends): once on both Saturday and Sunday.

EXTENDED HOURS 1/28 - 2/20

During the first three weeks of class -- when there are generally more questions -- I likely will be on-line and checking e-mail during the following hours:

M - F: at least once between `12:30 and 4 AM and again between 7 and 10 pm


Of course, I may check e-mail more often than this schedule suggests, but this way you will know i
advance when you will get an answer to your e-mail.

Note about calling Prof. Umbach:

If the website isn't functioning in some fashion, please immediately call me during the hours posted above (except for question on electronic reserves, which should be directed to
library reference desk at (212) 237 8246; see help on electronic reserves) or send me an e-mail. If the site's not working, I need to know about it.

Although I prefer to help you with most of your questions by e-mail, there are often questions that can't be answered in that fashion. If you have a question of this sort, please don't hesitate to call me during the hours listed above.

During the weekday, however, you are likely to get a faster response through e-mail.

Do NOT leave message on my cell phone; I rarely check it. Leave the message on my home machine.
