Academic Assistance
Supplemental Instruction (SI)
SI is an academic assistance program offered by The Student Learning Center and designed to improve the student’s academic performance and increase retention. The SI program targets traditionally difficult core curriculum courses and provides regularly scheduled, out-of-class, peer-facilitated group study sessions conducted by Supplimental Instruction (SI) leaders.
SI leaders are students who have taken and done well in the course during a past semester. The SI leaders attend the course again and then conduct three 50-minute study sessions per week. If an SI Leader is assigned to your course, the leader will be attending either the same section as you, or another section of the class held by the same professor. Whether or not the SI Leader attends your section, you are still welcome at the SI session.
Tutoring
The Student Learning Center provides Drop-in Tutoring in Hotard Hall and staffs Tutor Zones throughout campus. For information on both of these programs is available at the Student Learning Center Web site.
