All students in the class are REQUIRED to send the instructor the following information using E-Mail via the Internet (using NSUnet at NSU or, if you prefer, a commercial Internet Service Provider--ISP). Please refer to the syllabus which was distributed in class (also available in the WWW material for this course) to find out how to obtain your NSUnet userid and password. Print out this WWW page or jot down the required student information form for use when you log-on to the Internet to send e-mail. You may provide the following information by reference to its number or description.

Remember, this e-mail assignment is worth 15 points (for a completed form submitted via e-mail). I must receive it no later than 5:00pm on the due date listed in the course syllabus. If you have questions or problems, please contact me.

Please supply the following information about your class section and yourself. Simply list the item number and give the required information.

10. Your HOME mailing (permanent) address
11. Your HOME phone number (unless unlisted)
12. The e-mail addresses of TWO other members of this class (ask the persons sitting next to you in class or other friends in class; the purpose is to encourage collaborative effort among students)
13. Please tell me an "interesting", "useful", "humorous", or "serious" (your choice) thing about yourself that would be helpful to me in getting to know you.  Write at least two complete sentences.
14. List all (even if it has been many) other college-level geography courses you have completed (preferably by title rather than number).
15.  List all the countries in Africa that you have visited.  Write "None" if you have not been to Africa.

You must address all fifteen questions in order to receive full credit.  If you prefer not to provide your address and/or phone number, please write "withheld" by that item number.

Send the above information to the instructor at the following address:
ziehr@cherokee.nsuok.edu

I strongly recommend that you send yourself a copy of this and all important e-mail, that way you'll have a record of your assignment and can check for transmission errors that may have occurred.

Please feel free to call on me if I can help you in any way. May God bless you with a SUPER semester!
