Dr. Cooper's Contact Information
Office Hours: By appointment only
Due to social distancing requirements as well as my multiple service responsibilities, I do not have scheduled office hours for the Spring 2021 semester. Moreover, unless exigent circumstances warrant, I shall not meet students in my office face-to-face. Instead, I am most willing and pleased to talk to students at scheduled times via my office telephone (see below) or through WebEx discussions. To schedule a telephone discussion or WebEx session, I request that students email me their availability. I will reply as soon as practical and set an appointment at a time that is convenient for both parties. Note: For safety reasons, unscheduled “drop in” office visits are not permitted.
Office Location: Ward Beecher Science Hall, Room 3123
My office is located within a secured laboratory complex. Unauthorized persons are never allowed within this laboratory complex. Approved face-to-face meetings with me require a prior appointment. Note: For safety reasons, unscheduled “drop in” office visits are not permitted.
Telephone/Voice Mail: 330.941.1361
Students are encouraged to reach out to me by telephone. If prior arrangements have not been made, I may not be available. If this is the case, please leave a clear and distinct message on my voice mail. I will respond as soon as practical.
Email: crcooper01@ysu.edu
I strongly encourage students to email me should they have a question or need an appointment to discuss a matter. Please note that I typically receive over 100 emails each weekday during the semester. Hence, to help me more readily recognize a message from a student, please use the term “BIOL 6988” in the Subject line. If not, a student’s email risks being “lost” among the multitude of daily messages I receive.
I will answer emails as soon as practical. Please note, generally I am not inclined to respond to emails during evenings, semester breaks, weekends, or when the University is closed.
Important: My email communications are deemed privileged and may not be redistributed in any form (e.g., forwarded, posted on social media, published, etc.) without my explicit written permission. Doing so is a violation of the YSU Student Code of Conduct.
