Class begins January 3rd with all work submitted by January 25th.
All enrolled students must email me between Dec 30th and January 2nd to confirm their planned participation for this class. Any student who has NOT contacted me by 6 pm on Monday night, January 3rd may be dropped to make room for a wait listed student. If you are enrolled but not planning to participate in the class, be drop ASAP. Both the class and the wait list are full (with enough interested students for 2 sections) so your consideration is greatly appreciated. Keep in mind that, although I may drop any student who has not confirmed attendance, it is the students responsibility to drop the course if they are not planning to attend.
Wait listed students should also email me between 12/30 and 1/2 to request an add code. I will provide these as quickly as possible, dependent on drops/class capacity. Any student who cannot be added to the wait list but who would like to be added should also email me during these dates.
Please keep in mind that this is a RIGOROUS course. Students taking this class over 4 weeks usually do best if they have a couple of hours/day for participation. We cover the same amount of material as covered during a traditional semester. It is suggested that you have the book ASAP. You can preview the first chapter for free at the publishers website. Below is the course schedule. Also, the previous post included orientation videos for the class.
If you have any other questions, please do email me at my nutritionrusso gmail address.
