Tutoring and Study Assistance

The Office of Academic Services (located in HH 446) provides tutoring in most 100 and 200 level courses by trained upperclass students. Tutors meet with students each week to assist them in learning course content and in developing good approaches to learning. (note: each foreign language department provides their own assistance; the Rhetoric Center provides writing assistance.) Students may find study groups helpful in the learning process. A list of study groups available for each semester is available in the Academic Services office.
