• Proofread! Avoid sending emails with errors, missing attachments, and emailing multiple times about the same information.
• Avoid emails with large attachments like flyers and presentations, when possible. Instead, link to a website or shared folder.
• If you are sharing information ultimately intended for students, write your email content so it addresses a student audience, not a staff audience. This way, staff are more easily able to copy and share your information with their students. 
• Make your content accessible! Learn more about email accessibility
• • • Use plain language and avoid acronyms
    • Use descriptive link text
    • Include alternative text for images and graphics
• Use clear, professional subject lines
• Do not “reply all” if your message is intended for just the sender of the original email
