Learning Resource Center
Policies & Procedures
Supplies & Services:
_____ Students must log in and log out upon their arrival and exit, regardless of the purpose of their visit.
_____ If a student worked with a tutor for more than 5 minutes, they must fill out a survey.
_____ Students who wish to use a study room will abide by the posted schedule outside the door, and will vacate
the room when it is reserved. Students will not leave their items unattended while using the study room, or their
items may be removed and the room given to other students. The LRC is not responsible for items that are lost or
left unattended. LRC staff or tutors will NOT watch your items for you.
_____ Students will respect the materials and environment of the LRC. Students will pick up their trash, treat LRC
property with care, and will refrain from theft or vandalism.
_____ The break room, supply cabinets, and staff offices are off-limits to anyone who is not an LRC employee.
_____ The LRC offers laptops, textbooks, scientific and graphic calculators, office supplies, and whiteboard
markers. Students who would like to borrow any of these items should ask for assistance from an LRC employee.
All items must remain in the LRC.
Tutoring Rules:
_____ Students are allotted a maximum of 10 minutes with a tutor at one time. The tutor will then move on to
help other students and may come back to help the original student only after everyone else has been helped.
_____ Students will not monopolize a tutor’s time, nor will they seek tutoring from a tutor who is off the clock.
Tutors who are actively working will be wearing red lanyards. Tutors will stop tutoring promptly at closing time.
_____ If a student wishes to work with a tutor and all of the tutors are busy, the student will quietly and visibly
post their flag on the table stand. The student may gently let a tutor or student assistant know they are waiting,
but are not to repetitively or impolitely interrupt a tutor while they are helping other students. Occasionally our
center is very busy and we may be short-staffed.
_____ Tutors are not permitted to help students with take-home quizzes, tests, test corrections, or class projects
unless specified by the professor. If the professor has not given permission, the tutors may work with the student
on general concepts. Students can request that a tutor stamp and sign their paper to verify they received help.

Offensive or inappropriate comments, gestures, or attire
