Greetings!
I am the administrator of this Wiki, but don't blame me if you hate it. I never have problems with taking responsibility, but I can't take blame. ;-)
- My office is Health Science Room 211 (on the right as you enter the second floor).
- Telephone: 716 888-2521
- Sorry; I don't give out my cell phone, but Sharon, our departmental secretary, knows it and can contact me with REALLY important issues right away. Sharon can be reached at 716 888-2510.
- If you leave a phonemail message, please make sure it contains your name, telephone number, and some times that you can be reached.
- My office hours are fluid. I'm in most days for much of the time, but I hesitate to give firm hours since meetings and off-campus events can be scheduled at unpredictable times. If you drop by and I'm not in, leave a message tacked to the door and I'll get back to you as soon as I get it. Many students have cell phones, and if you don't mind my calling, leave that number. If you want to make a firm appointment, just let me know after a class and we'll write it in stone.
- I try to foster collaboration in my courses because it is such an important skill in life. I use online tools like this wiki and a forum toward that end. Recently I added portfolios to the mix. You can find a general introductory page to my online devices at http://www.profbayer.net∞. And the entry point for the new department portfolio function is at http://psy.canisiuspll.net∞. If you would like to have your own portfolio, contact me at djbayer@canisius.edu
- Personal information? I have been a member of the faculty at Canisius since 1970. My main area of expertise is school psychology, which is a minor in the department. I teach a variety of courses and am currently responsible for supervising practica and teaching several sections of Introductory Psychology.
- My wife and I are the parents of three, all of whom have been lucky enough to stay in Buffalo to raise their families. We have six grandchildren, ranging in age from one to ten.
