• YULA’s third pillar is Character Development. All students are expected to behave like a mensch.
• Communication is key. This course has a high level of independence to it. Unless you reach out to me to ask for support or clarification, I assume that you understand the assignment guidelines and expectations.
• Due dates exist for a reason. I am willing to be flexible on due dates if it means that you are willing to put extra work into improve your assignments or go above and beyond expectations. Failure to meet deadlines due to carelessness or lack of organization are not acceptable reasons for late work and missed deadlines.
• Perfect is the enemy of done. This class is the anti-perfection. This doesn’t mean to turn in bad work, it means to risk doing something incredible even if you fall short.
• Ask for help. No one can do it on their own. Asking for help means is a core of innovation. It promotes collaboration and allows us to learn along the way.
