A reminder to myself, sharing for whoever needs to hear it:

Students mostly don’t read the syllabus. The primary beneficiary of the syllabus is the instructor. It’s a planning tool, a thought-sharpener. Anything students need to hear must also come through other channels.

Also, students:

Actually reading the syllabus — •really• reading it, not just kind of looking at it — is a superpower. It’s a window into the prof’s mind. You probably won’t, I know, but if you do…instant leg up.
