Drop-in Advising*
Drop-In Advising is a great way to meet with advisors when you have a time-sensitive question or one to a few quick questions. During in-person drop-in, students will arrive at 295 Evans Hall and meet with me in the order they arrive. To access remote drop-in, please follow the links below to visit my Drop-in Advising Zoom Room. Note that the Zoom meeting room will only be open during the hours listed.
