This is a course on diplomacy, so I expect diplomatic-level behavior. Listen actively and make comments respectfully. Come in quietly if you are late. No talking unless you are making a contribution to class. If you need to make a call or send a text, go outside and return quietly, but don’t make it a habit. Unless you are working for MOFA already, I will assume my class is one of your most important weekly meetings.
Laptops and tablets are permitted, but students must sit in the FIRST ROW ONLY to have this privilege. You’re welcome.
If I see your phone out during class, it’s mine. I love Iphones, but Samsung is also good.
