    COMMUNICATION LAB ACTIVITIES

    Location: MI 3021 Open: M-Th 10-5 (based on staff availability)

    The Lab is a free tutor service for any student on campus preparing
    presentations. There are always 1-3 tutors available to help students on a
    drop-in basis. The tutors are experienced in public speaking (communication
    majors and trained by the Lab Director) but they are not teachers. They help
    students find resources, get started on activities, guide them in completing
    assignments, and offer advice to improving pronunciation. They cannot do
    the work for the student nor do they correct or edit work completely.

    assignments for your students to complete when they visit the Lab.

    I hope to see your students in the Lab. Please let us know if there is
    anything else we can do for you.
