October marks the start of flu season, accompanied by a flurry of sniffly noses and fevers. Feeling sick isn't fun, especially when you've got a paper to write or a test. Read about how the Student Health Center can help when you're sick or injured.
So you're halfway through your semester, and you realize you need a
little help in one or a few...of your classes.
Free walk-in tutoring is offered at Clement Hall, the Black Cultural Center, Greve Hall, the Commons at Hodges Library, and South Carrick Residence Hall. Check the Multicultural Student Life and Student Success Center pages for tutoring hours.
Also, the Tutoring@UT online database lets you search a subject and course level to find other available tutoring options.
