Hi Marc--

I have that policy (no e-mail copies) in my syllabus. The rationale I give in the syllabus includes things such as virus concerns, files sent that are corrupted and can't be opened, and the fact that our e-mail system here at the university automatically strips off attachments that exceed a certain size. I tell them delivering a printed copy is the only way to be sure it is received. Of course, I have made exceptions to this policy on a case by case basis, but so far, I haven't had any complaints about it at all, and I've had this policy in all of my face to face classes for about 3 years now.

Hi, All --

Quick question: is anyone else getting annoyed at the number of students
who email assignments to you, leaving you to do the printing and
stapling?

I am considering a "no emailed assignments" policy, but just wonder if
I'm being school-marmish and mean.

Do you regularly allow students to do this?

Thanks for any help you can provide.  I don't want to turn into a bitter
old man.
