Professional tutors are available for developmental classes, Contemporary Math, College Algebra and English. Their schedules vary by semester, so check in with the Learning Lab staff for an up to date schedule. Referrals for tutors for other courses may also be available.

Presently, there are a limited number of computers available for students to use for homework, studying, developing resumes, and research. Tables are set up for individuals or study groups. Students may study independently or request a tutor to work with them as necessary. The Learning Lab does not require total silence, but we ask that discussions be kept as quiet as possible due to student testing. A printer is available for students to use and there is a nominal charge per sheet.

The Learning Lab offers access through computers to the Mary and John Gray Library. Research may be done on line, and if books or other materials are needed, they may be checked out through the Inter-Library loan system. Students must have their student ID validated at the library, and then they can access the catalog and the electronic databases. Students can use the computer access to find books available for check-out, and also print full text articles from several electronic databases.
