Expectations in MRR
- DO attend class to learn the material. The MRR is not a replacement for attending class.
- DO ask specific questions (e.g. “I know I need to take the derivative, but am having difficulty with the quotient rule”).
- DO collaborate with other students.
- Do NOT ask a TA on duty to sign a form.
- Do NOT charge electronics (this is a safety hazard).
- Do NOT ask an instructor to do your homework for you.
- Do NOT ask for help for a class not supported by the MRR. The MRR supports MA 15300, MA 15800, MA 16010, MA 16020, MA 16100, MA 16200, MA 16500, MA 16600, and MA 26100.
