Providing a safe, welcoming space for students to receive academic support and build a community.

What We Do

Collaborative Peer Tutoring

The Commons is a free, collaborative peer-tutoring space located in the Bernard A. Newcomb Digital Commons on the second floor of Austin Hall. It is a new addition to the suite of academic support services offered by the college and the university.

Peer tutors are available to assist students with questions, homework, and other concerns related to coursework and study and test habits. Students from BA 223/390 (Principles of Marketing) and BA 240/360 (Finance) are highly encouraged to stop by for specialized tutoring. Tutoring is also available for a broad range of additional courses, including BA 211 and BA 275.
