Math Student Resource Room
The Math Student Resouce Room is located in
Olin 203. This is a walk-in help center for students. The room, nicknamed the Ratiocination or "Rat" Room, is staffed by experienced mathematics students that are available to help you understand the material covered in class and provide guidance with your homework. The tutors are available in the afternoons and evenings. This service provides a convenient option for those who encounter difficulties with their mathematics work and would benefit from immediate help. The tutors provide this assistance free of charge.
This is a good location to meet and work with friends and others who are taking the same course. It's also a great meeting place for small study groups even if you do not need the tutor resources.
In addition to offering generalized mathematics tutoring, the room is also staffed (hours may differ) during winter and spring terms for MATH 203 & 204 (Mathematics for Elementary Teacher I and II) students. See the schedule below for details.
