Paul/David,
As someone who has taught part-time at colleges and universities, I don?t find Dan Gerlach?s using a private e-mail account while teaching part-time strange at all. I?ve done it too.
How long has Dan been teaching at NCSU? There was a time at places I taught when adjunct faculty just didn?t get e-mail accounts. Simple as that. And once you start using a certain account, it?s natural to continue to use that same address.
I used my private e-mail address even when a school address was offered as the school account won?t be set up until after the semester start (i.e. after I gave out the syllabus.)
Also, I can understand the advantage of using a limited number of e-mail address.
