Additional Course Information
Recorded Classes
Each semester the Film Library supplies
nearly 1,400 hours of recorded classes for students who have
been unable to attend a class or who need a little review.
Students can use the tapes in the Instructional Media Center,
Hicks Undergraduate Library. Ask for materials and assistance
at the Circulation Desk.
Instructors
Your teacher can be of great assistance to you. If you are
having problems in a particular class, talk to the instructor
and take advantage of your instructor's office hours. He/she
can aid you in understanding your difficulties and can offer
suggestions for improvements. Some instructors have materials
at the reserve desk of the library. Others may have supplementary
material at nearby copy services. Some courses have test files
and other material in the BoilerCopyMaker (PMU 157, 496-3888).
Notes for
Classes
It is recommend that you do not purchase "Notes for Classes"
in place of attending class and taking your own notes. Purchased
notes may not be accurate. The people that sell the "Notes"
work for profit-making businesses and do not necessarily have
the student's best interest in mind. In addition, learning
and mastering course material starts when you attend class
and take notes yourself.
Academic
Success Skills Workshops One-hour Academic Success Skills Workshops are offered
on Wednesdays every semester by the Liberal Arts Academic
Success Center. No advance reservation is necessary. Topics
include Time Management, Multiple Choice Exams, Lecture Notetaking,
Overcoming Anxiety in Math and Science, Taking Essay Exams,
and Surviving Finals Week.
