Students,
You’ve received an email from the college vice president regarding classes with D2L. Rather than shifting to that system and restarting from scratch, I think I’m going to continue using the youtube videos I’ve been making so far. So, that is the plan for now.
Please keep up with watching and taking notes from the videos as usual. Also keep up with the assignments. Please email questions you have regarding the assignments to the yahoo email address set up for each class. Try to refrain from mailing them to my Lonestar.edu account since that fill up every day so fast it’s possible your question will fall through the cracks. Also, please try to communicate using your my.lonestar.edu email address.
I know all this isn’t ideal, and it definitely isn’t how I would have drawn things up in January, but we need to play the cards we’re dealt. Stay with me, work on keeping up, and hopefully we can get everybody through the semester. I’m still pondering the details of how exams will sort out. Don’t fret on that. I’ll keep you informed. Set your focus more on learning and not so much on grades.
One last item, the drop date has officially been delayed until May 1, so if you feel like that’s your better option, you have some extra time to get caught up and maybe salvage the semester.
Hang in there, guys. Stay safe and take care of yourselves.

Pep Talk:
I know that many of you are uncertain with how things are going to shake out, and there’s no way I can possibly know all the disruption that has occurred in each of your lives over the past several days. But as I mentioned Monday, one thing I want to commit myself to is trying to keep you from burning a semester. I know many of you have plans that involve you finishing this class this semester and progressing in the summer or fall. I’m going to try to help you make that happen. I don’t know yet (in fact, probably nobody does) precisely how that’s going to flesh out, but I’m going to give it a go. If it’s at all possible, don’t drop the class.
You’re going to need to bring some game. These are serious times and they call for seriousness to meet them. If this is going to happen, you’re going to need to be diligent, hard-working, and a self-starter. I know it’s tough, but try to focus on LEARNING more than on a grade. Trust me.
Today as I was folding laundry and listening to the news, a phrase came to my mind that I think would serve well: Due Caution, No Fear, Never Panic. I think if something like that had been everyone’s mantra, store shelves wouldn’t be empty and toilet paper memes wouldn’t be all over the internet.
Hang in there, and wash your hands.
