Drop-in appointments
Advising at the Learning Commons
Have a quick question for an academic adviser but you don't think it warrants a full advising appointment? All students are welcome to visit us at our drop-in times.
When:
- Mondays, 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm*
- Wednesdays, 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm
- Thursdays, 10:00 am to 12:00 pm
- Fridays, 10:00 am to 12:00 pm
Where: The McPherson Library Learning Commons, room 135h.
How to sign up: There will be a sign-up sheet on the office door where you can add your name. When it is your turn, the adviser will invite you into the office, so be sure to stay nearby.
*This drop-in time coincides with Career Services's career educator drop-in sessions, located next door in room 135g. If you're looking for help from both a career educator and an academic adviser, this is a great opportunity to attend a 2-for-1 drop in.
