Important Information

  • Please write your name and the course code you are looking for help on the "login book".
  • In busy times, meetings with TAs are limited to 10 minutes. At the end of the 10 minutes, you can write your name again in the login book if you need more help.
  • Don't wait until the day before a test/midterm to come and ask your questions. Those days will usually be hectic.
  • Please make sure to come prepared with specific and clear questions. Staff members cannot explain a whole section of the course. Having your questions written helps to maximize the use of time.
  • Please respect the time of your appointment. The staff member has to go to the next student on the waiting list when the center is busy.
  • Staff members cannot give solutions to assignment questions, only hints and suggestions.
