in Russian:the name-middle name (Ivan Ivanovich / Anna Petrovna) form shouldbe used by default
Addressing your instructor by name (Ivan / Anna) is only possible ifyou previously agreed on such form with him/her.

University ethics
Be polite and respectful to your classmates and the University sta�
Do not talk too loud or shout in halls outside classrooms, especiallyduring class hours
Do not initiate handshakes to teachers or members of sta�, avoidunnecessary familiarity
Do not take audio and video recordings of classes, photos can betaken on agreement with the instructor
You can applaude after a lecture �nishes, but it is not a must.
Sort out in class as many issues as possible, don't rely on onlinemessaging services and e-mail to solve minor problems - instructorsalso have their private life and free time!
