Academic Support
If you are having difficulty in a course or have questions not answered in the classroom, the instructor is the best person to approach. The full-time faculty hold office hours during which time you are free to seek whatever academic help you need. Your adviser also might be helpful.
If you are a new student (first-year or transfer), you may meet with Kay Kalenga, Academic Adviser or Bruce Keller, Assistant Dean of Undergraduate Studies, to discuss any concerns you may have. If you are a sophomore, junior, or senior, contact Bruce Keller, Taylor 108A, 215-572-2922.
