Students are encouraged to post questions and comments to the HumNat discussion list. Feel free to answer questions as well as ask them. Here are a few ground rules:
  1. Be polite.
  2. Be brief.
  3. Keep to the subject matter of the course.
  4. It's OK to disagree with the professor.
  5. If you don't understand something, please ask about it.
  6. If a few voices seem to dominate the conversation, we will ask those voices to simmer down. (We will do this gently and in private.)
  7. Feel free to play "Devil's advocate". In other words, it's OK to make an argument you don't believe.
