How to Join the Economics of Science and Technology Class Mailing List

I have set up an e-mail discussion group for the class. All students are expected to subscribe to the mailing list. You may use this list for any class related activities, such as asking questions, continuing discussions from class, and instigating new discussions.  I will use the list to keep you informed about assignments, answer questions, and instigate discussion. When messages are sent to the list, all students subscribed to the list will get the message.

To subscribe to the list, send an e-mail to listserv@listserv.syr.edu with the following message:

SUB EconSci Jan Smith

Note that this is all that need be in the body of the message, and that it must be typed in exactly as written, except, of course, that you should replace your name for Jan Smith.   When you sign up, you will receive a message with detailed instructions for participating in the mailing list.  This message will ask that you reply, so as to confirm that you intended to join the list.  It is important that you remember to reply, or else you will not be added to the list!

A couple of technical notes:  E-mails sent to the list are sent to EVERYONE who subscribes to the list.  If you want to send a personal e-mail to a specific class member (or to me), use their e-mail address, not the list's address. The list is a good place to ask questions about class materials, because everyone can see the answer.  It is not the way to let me know that you are going to miss class on Wednesday.  For that you should send an e-mail to me personally.  Also, I am considered the owner of this list.  If you experience any problems, please e-mail me directly.
