In any one quarter, the lab serves students in over 50 courses across campus. In fact, some instructors report that those students who complete the quarter doing well in their classes are those who have been using the lab regularly. Walk-ins are welcome. Everyday many students use the lab on a walk-in basis. They have access to the same resources as registered lab students-except the Macintosh computers.
Credit is also available.
Students may register for one, two or three credits in English 089 Reading Center or English 099 Writing Center, to work on their skills in an individualized lab setting. This is a common erroneous belief about writing centers. Our goal is to help students become better writers, readers and thinkers. Learning assistants must possess not only the knowledge about grammar, composition and study skills, but they must also be able to help the students understand and help them learn. Those are just a few of the things staff could work on in Room 202.
