I make efforts to view, and respond to email messages to the greatest degree possible. However please understand that in some cases a response might require some time. Particularly at times when email traffic is especially heavy, it is not always possible to respond promptly to all mails. If your mail requires immediate attention, I suggest you resend the same message, adding the word RESENDING to the subject line of the message. It is requested that those not affiliated with the university make appointments in advance via email.
