Dr Hetzel-
:) I don't have a single response to your question either. We tend to
get a lot of first in the family college students who don't think there
is any difference in Dr. So-and-so and their high school teachers (not
to say that some high school teachers aren't also PhDs). Anyway, I tend
to ask 1st year and sophomore students to call me Dr Shearon (or at
least I strongly imply that). But email is another thing. The lack of
formality does make it hard or awkward to sign it Dr and signing Tim
removes or at least seems to the request to call me Dr Shearon. So my
solution is a bit of a cop-out. I sign emails to those students as,
TOS

On a related note, how many of you sign your emails with "Dr. <last
name>"?  I sign mine "Rod" but people still usually write back to me as
"Dr. Hetzel."  For some reason it just feels strange to sign my name as
"Dr. Hetzel" on an email.

What do all of you do?

Dr. Hetzel
