Stucfy on IM., any students have a similar goal in mind when they choose to come to college: get a degree in order to make money. Unfortunately, the route to getting that degree can involve taking courses that may make you wonder if you ' ll ever graduate. Fortunately, Temple offers a wide variety of resources to help students get through those rough spots. The first place to start is the library. Always quiet and equipped with an impressive computer lab, it most likely offers all the resources you ' ll need. Right next door is The Tuttleman Learning Center- a.k.a. Club Tuttleman during mid-term and finals week- with study lounges perfectly suited to 2 a.m. cramming. It also has the only 24 7- computer lab on campus and is home to the Writing Center, where tutors are available to help you with papers. Across the street in Curtis Hall is the Math Science and Resources Center. There you will find tutors to assist with those intense chemical equations and statistic problems and as if that wasn ' t enough, they offer textbooks and calculators for students to borrow, as well as a computer lab. Another popular spot for academics is the Student Center, where you can borrow a laptop for a few hours and get to work on that paper in one of the many quiet lounges throughout the building. In addition to the Student Center, nearly all of the buildings on campus have areas perfectly suited to studying between 1H Classes Studying camp us i Photo by: Kenyatta Joseph Acommuter listens to music while reading.

Most of the colleges offer individual tutoring centers where you can get help in a particular subject, such as the Intellectual Heritage (IH) tutoring center in the College of Liberal Arts; all you have to do is ask your professor. Though it may occasionally be hard to believe, they do want to see you get that degree and make money. So study long and hard, and don ' t be afraid to ask for a little extra help! - Kenyatta Joseph I HI
