  1. Why do I need to sign in and out every time?

Signing in and out each time you enter an LE lab is important because it helps us justify the need for more services such as computers, space, and staff.

  1. Does The Learning Center sell floppy disks?

No. Due to the instability of floppy disks, Learning Enrichment recommends visiting the bookstore to purchase a jump drive, also known as a removable drive or USB drive. These devices work in any computer on campus, are much more stable, and are able to store much more information than a typical floppy disk.

  1. What should I do if I have a problem with a tutor or specialist?

If the problem you are having is with a tutor, inform a specialist. If the problem you are having is with a specialist, inform the Learning Enrichment Assistant Director.
 

  1. Can Learning Enrichment help me if I have a learning disability?

Yes. We will be glad to help you just like any other student to the best of our ability. The same policies apply as far as time limit of a tutoring session and what we can and cannot do. We are able to offer tutoring, but we cannot serve as a scribe. A scribe can be obtained through the Office of Disability Services, located at the Lightner Center, near the library. Contact Steve Wilder at (956) 882-7374 or steve.wilder@utb.edu. If a scribe or interpreter is needed, he/she must accompany the student to the tutoring session.
