Write
the word "Question" in the subject line when you email me.

Phone: See below. Feel free to call me 9 am-9 pm 7

Note:
I do not check email or have online or school office hrs. as
follows:
(1) not on holidays, Sundays, or days when there are no
classes on campus,
(2) not on days when classes are cancelled for teacher
meetings,
(3) not on Student Success Day or the two workdays just
before classes start, and

ARE YOU IN A FULLY ONLINE COURSE with me and wondering whether I got your
emailed homework? If you are sending me homework/make up/extra
credit by email, please note that I only check such emails once a week
on the weekend. I always send back a note after I've checked it,
so you know I received it. Please wait - until Monday after the
weekend is over - to ask me whether or not I got your emailed
homework. If you have a question to ask me, please write the
word "QUESTION" in the subject line of your email so that I know it is
not homework, and I will answer usually within 24 hrs.
DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION? If it may be a common question,
please first check
(1) the course web site,
(2) the "FAQs" page in the course web site, or
(3) the "FAQs" page for the discussion boards.
If you can't find the answer in those places, then
definitely email me or call. If you email, It will
help--especially if you are in an online course with me--if you write
the word "QUESTION" in caps in the subject line so that I don't
accidentally mistake your email for homework. I'm always glad to
answer email questions as quickly as possible. To phone me, see
below.

Email
Address
My email address
is
richard at jewell dot net
Directions:
Write the above mail address in the normal way that email
addresses are written, using "@" for "at" and "."
for "dot." Here is an example:
"adamATjonesDOTnet"
=
adam@jones.edu
Why have I written
my email this way? I am trying to avoid
showing my email address on the Web. In this way, I can stop automated software
"spider" programs. These programs find email addresses on the Web, then
sell them to spammers. (I now already receive 600+ spams per month
by email before they are filtered.)
Please remember
to use two "L's" when you write "Jewell." And please use only
one of these email addresses, not both, as they both forward emails to the
exact, same
box.
If you are a student in one of my online classes, please write
the word "Question" in the subject line.
And if you are in an online course and you are
emailing homework, please carefully use
a certain type of email subject line: look for it in our course Web
site in "Homework" under "Due Dates & Delivery
Methods." Usually it consists of something like the course &
number (e.g., "Hum 1110"), the week due, the assignment,
and your last name (e.g., "Hum1110,Wk. 7,Comments on Jones ch.
10-11, Anderson."

a.m.-9:00 p.m.
(It is okay to call!) :-) |
Office phone:
During
weekends, summers, and Christmas breaks, please do not call me at
my office phone, as I am not there during those times. It is almost
always fastest to reach me at my home phone. If you call me at
school, please be aware that I usually only check my office phone on Mons.
and Weds. between my two afternoon classes: (651)
450-3566. |

| Office:
B-136
(in the Business building, across the mall from the cafeteria; the
Business building is on the west or freeway side of the
central mall, the second to last building from
the south end).
Office Hours:
See above. I would be glad to talk with you in person, by phone, or
by email. I'm only on campus two or three days a week because up to
half
of my classes are online classes conducted from home, and I also have
release time to run Student Success Day and the campus honor society. This
means that only half of my office hours are on campus. See above for
the schedule.
You also can reach my administrative assistant, Michele Zywiec, at
(651) 450-3565. |

Do you want to
drop off a paper at my home? BE SURE TO PRINT THESE DIRECTIONS OUT: print
this page, or copy these directions and paste them into an MS Word page that you
print.
Here is how to
get to my home: It's
not easy. Essentially, I'm very close to the intersection of I-94, I-35W,
and I-394 in Minneapolis, and very close to the old Guthrie and to Loring Park.
Click here for a mapquest.com map:
make two print outs--one close up and one wider angle--and please note that the
star location on the map is slightly off, as it should be across the street and
a slightly to the northwest of the intersection of Dell and Groveland.

Here are directions from four
points of the compass. I strongly, strongly recommend you print them, as the streets and
exits are hard to negotiate the first time or two, and typically someone
gets a little (or a lot) lost each year.
-
From UMN or St. Paul,
get on either I-35W South or I-94 West. If you're on 35W South, merge onto 94 West
as soon as the two freeways come together. Then, on 94 West, take the
"Hennepin-Lyndale" exit: immediately go over to the far right lane of the exit,
which lane is the Lyndale Avenue North exit. Turn right at the light onto Lyndale
Ave. North; go one block (past the big stone church) to the next light and turn right
again. You'll then be at about 510 Groveland Avenue going east. (See
"5." below for further directions.)
-
From I-394, going east, exit toward
Hennepin-Lyndale Avenues. The second stoplight is Hennepin Avenue. Turn right
at this stoplight onto Hennepin Avenue South, and stay in the right-hand lane. After
you've turned onto Hennepin Avenue, go through two stoplights on Hennepin Avenue.
The second of these two stoplights is Groveland Ave., and normally I would tell you to
turn left onto Groveland Ave.--except no left turn is allowed. So instead, stay in
the far right lane of Hennepin Ave. South, go through this second stoplight, and
immediately turn right three times. You'll then cross over Hennepin
Avenue onto Groveland Avenue. At that point you'll be at about 510 Groveland Avenue
going east. (See "5." below for further directions.)
-
From the north, take I-94 East (as it heads
south), and exit onto Hennepin Avenue South. At the third stoplight (on Hennepin
Avenue going south), you would turn left onto Groveland Ave.--except no left turn is
allowed. So instead, get in the right lane of Hennepin Ave. South, go through the
third stoplight, and immediately turn right three times. You'll then cross
over Hennepin Avenue onto Groveland Avenue. At that point, you'll be at
about 510 Groveland Avenue. (See "5." below for further directions.)
-
From the south, take I-35W North.
Exit onto the I-94 West/I-394 West exit. Stay in the far right lane. Take the
"Hennepin-Lyndale" exit, and stay over in the far right lane of the exit, which
lane is the Lyndale Avenue North exit. Turn right at the light onto Lyndale Avenue
North, go one block (past the big stone church) to the next light, and turn right
again. You'll then be at on Groveland Avenue, about 510 Groveland. (See
"5." below for further directions.)
-
From 510 Groveland Avenue, drive to 410
Groveland--a tall condo building with an awning out front. If you come after 9 p.m.,
drive to 400 Groveland--another tall condo building with an entrance going up between two
brick walls, and go to the Security Office in front (most of the Security Office people are used
to receiving student papers for me); ask the security guard to write the
date and time when he/she receives the paper.
