Students are urged to attend the first available colloquium following their enrollment. The Vermont colloquia in April and October take place at Norwich University's campus in Montpelier. For the convenience of students in the Western region, an abbreviated version of this event takes place over a two-day weekend in July near Santa Barbara, California. In between these scheduled meetings, communication with your core faculty advisor takes place by phone, by mail and by fax. If you have a computer with a modem, you can also communicate with your core faculty advisor by electronic mail by setting up a computer account with Norwich University following your enrollment.
Some faculty members have individual web pages.
Your core faculty advisor will apprise you of his or her regular office hours. But, as you have gathered from all of the above, your advisor is not always immediately available because of scheduled field trips, colloquia and faculty meetings in Vermont. In addition, core faculty advisors take vacations during the months of February and August so that they can pursue research, attend conferences and otherwise further their professional development. You will receive periodic notice of your core faculty advisor's schedule, which you should take into account in submitting your work.
