Students generally subscribe to the CS1014 list server which allows important information and discussions to be emailed to all the students of the course.
If you wish to get off the list, send an e-mail to listserv@listserv.vt.edu
with signoff cs1014 in the body of the email. Note that you
must send this request from the e-mail address that is on the list (i.e.
if you send this request from a return address that is an alias to your
PID, you won't be removed from the list because the listserv machine sees
you as two different people. You must send the request from your PID@vt.edu
in this case).
