During this time when we cannot all be together on campus, it’s more important than ever to connect with people: family, friends, instructors, and classmates. These connections are essential for your well-being and successful coursework.

Put your College email at the top of your daily digital diet.

• Your K email account is the source for official College information.
• It’s the starting point for all contact with your instructors.
• By using your College email, you identify yourself officially to people at the College, so they can share information (grades, policies, etc.) with you.

Allow time to read messages.

• Without face-to-face interaction to provide clarification, everyone will rely on detailed written correspondence. Reading and comprehending this material takes time and focus.

Become a frequent-replier!

• Let people know you got the message.
• Ask questions. Make suggestions.

What should you do if you need help?

• Is your instructor offering virtual office hours? When and on what platform?
• Is there an online forum for asking questions?
