“While all Lafayette students have the ability to do very well here, I have found that a number of very good students can stumble, especially in their first few semesters, due to the pace of college work and the time management and study habits that are needed to master that work. The Academic Tutoring and Training Information Center has a number of programs–workshops, help sessions, peer tutor sessions–that are all very helpful in developing the skills needed for successful academic achievement. I tell all of my first-year students to take advantage of the ATTIC’s programs, and I recommend my best upper-class students to participate as tutors.”
–Ken Haug, associate professor chemistry

“At Lafayette we are proud of our excellent faculty and our dynamic curriculum. In addition to the opportunity to work closely with faculty instructors and mentors, students also can find useful tools in the programs and peer tutoring services offered in the ATTIC. The staff and students associated with the ATTIC augment the support and guidance provided by the faculty.”
–Wendy Hill, Provost
