Instructor Office Hours
One of the most important resources for any college student is 'Instructor Office
Hours'. This time is set aside by each instructor and reserved for supporting students,
similar to 1-on-1 meetings. Each course syllabus and Canvas course should state an
instructor's office hours, and may also give the option of coordinating availablity
outside of those set times. Office hours may be in-person, virtual, via. phone, or
other method depending on the instructor.
