Supplemental Instruction (SI) Sessions
SI instructor: Caitlyn East
Times:
MW 5:00-6:00pm
Location:
Science S61
I strongly advise students to attend these sessions. Students who attend SI
sessions have an average 1/2 letter increase in grades over students who do not
attend.
If you CANNOT attend the SI sessions, you can also get help at the
Chemistry Help Center on the first
floor (S115).Chemistry 355 - Organic laboratory techniques
