JRN 200 -- Help Is On The Way!

From the J-school:

JRN offered standard help sessions for JRN 200 and JRN 300 students in the distant past and we are reinstating them. Joe Grimm identified times and days, listed below. The sessions can be combined to help both JRN 200 and JRN 300 students, depending on turnout. Please offer this opportunity to all of your students.

Joe is looking into an open lab for these times:

Wednesday, Nov. 10, 9 a.m. to noon (obviously, you can't go to this one)
Monday, Nov. 15, noon to 3 p.m.
Wednesday, Nov. 17, 6-9 p.m.

His ground rules are the following: "I do not discuss grades, teaching, etc. I am here to help them if they have identified in themselves problems with an area, such as accuracy, style, lead writing, tax millages, beat management, etc. FEEL FREE TO REFER STUDENTS."


I was not immediately given a location; I suggest that if this is of interest to you, contact Joe at CAS 303, or by email at jgrimm@msu.edu, or by calling 517-353-5425.

Seriously, if you're feeling a bit overwhelmed at this time of the semester and are stressed you they should be "getting it" by now, please feel free to take advantage of these tutoring sessions.

And, as always, I'm available during my office hours to go over things. This doesn't replace that; this is just a supplement to that.

We're heading into the home stretch. Let's all work together to make sure you get the best grade you can!
