Located in Robinson, across the street from the football field, and across the hall from the Computer Center, the Academic Resource Center is easily accessible. Each semester about fifty well-trained students and professional instructors tutor and assist new and returning students at all levels both individually and in small groups. In the Math Center, located in 112 Kettering, students can receive help in math and math-related courses. Judy Harvey Writing assistants working in the Write Place help beginning and experienced writers to plan, to revise and to edit their college papers. Students may drop in or make appointments during daytime and evening hours.
SI is a student-centered study program that supplements and reviews the content of selected courses.
Model students serve as SI leaders in such courses as American History, Accounting, Economics, and Chemistry. SI leaders have previously taken the SI courses, but they attend classes a second or third time so that they can assist students in weekly small group study sessions. During the SI meetings students review study strategies such as notetaking and test taking appropriate for learning content of the SI course. SI is one of the Academic Resource Center's most popular programs. Carol Mercer Students are encouraged to come into the Academic Resource Center and request a peer tutor for any of their college courses.
