The lab offers a comfortable informal setting with textbooks, solutions manuals, lecture series and computers to view lectures and access popular math and related websites. Student Clerks are present to welcome students to the lab, assist with the enrollment process and check-out of lab library resources. Student Tutors circulate throughout the lab assisting students with their math-related studies. The Coordinator and Instructional Assistants also assist students as needed.
