For those of you who have begun posting, thank you and keep up the good work! For those of you who do not know, this is a whole new era of the UTA Program. What you post here may help not only one another here and now, but also those UTA's of the future.
The UTA Program was started six years ago to give free help to struggling students. It started only in the Resource Room, where a handful of students would be responsible for being able to help all those who were struggling, but there was too much demand for it and not enough supply. Dr. Levy started a new branch of UTA's around this time, one that would not require majors to fulfill it but would still provide the help students desperately needed. That torch has been handed to me, but now there are even more students than ever who still need help.
That's where you come in! Partial teachers, partial students still trying to impress grad schools, partial intellectual volunteers, you have the ability to fulfill the demand we desperately need. And I know, days are tough when no one needs help, and I don't blame you for doing other homework during an empty UTA hour, but for those of you who have helped a student, can you match that feeling with anything else?
It's pretty awesome.
Best,
Hannah Sweetser
