Your
mathematics instructors are here to help
you learn material; we are at Holy Cross because we love to teach
and enjoy working with students. You should use our office hours,
especially if you're having trouble with a course, but even if the
course is going smoothly. Don't be a stranger!

Academic accommodations: Any student who feels
the need for accommodation based on the impact of a disability
should contact
the Office
of Disability Services to discuss support
services available. Once the office receives documentation
supporting the request for accommodation, the student would
meet privately with Disability Services to discuss reasonable
and appropriate accommodations. The office can be reached by
calling 508-793-3693 or by visiting Hogan Campus Center, room
215A.
If you are already registered with Disability
Services, please be sure to get your accommodation letters and
deliver them to your instructors in a timely
fashion. Instructors need 4–5 days advance notice to be
able to facilitate the process of receiving testing
accommodations.
