Contact the CS 61A Staff

You're always welcome to contact John DeNero by email (denero@berkeley.edu) or anonymously at denero.org/feedback.html.

In addition, there are several ways to contact course staff:

  • Private Ed post: These can be seen by all course staff (instructors, TAs, tutors). Please do not direct posts to individual staff members, as they're likely to be missed. If you're asking a question about your assignment code, please follow the private post template.
  • cs61a@berkeley.edu: Messages sent to this email can be seen by some of this semester's Head TAs and the instructors. We keep the emails, so future (head) TAs may also have access. We can delete any email you sent us after the fact if you request it. If you are sharing personal information, you may not want to send it there.
  • Individual email addresses: All of our email addresses are listed on the staff pages. We encourage you to use the options above if they meet your needs, since they will reach more people. However, this is a good option when sharing personal information.

The EECS department also provides many ways to report issues within the department. Please do report any incidents to us or to the department using the department form, so that we can continue to improve the CS student experience. Thank you!
