DH Open Office Hours

General Notes

For the Fall semester, the plan is to have one session a week, lasting one hour. Preferably the DSC Media Lounge when it's available. They will be on Wednesdays from 1 PM - 2 PM. Each session will have a focus, but projects and student discussion will always take priority. There will be discussion questions to help at each section.

Outreach

Idea of an "Open Office Hours Roadshow" component where, once a semester, we do a version of Office Hours in a room in a particular department (Holmes Hall in English / History, etc.)

We're trying to be more exclusive of CAMD, so we'll be having a series of Open Office Hours dedicated to things like social science and journalism.

We also eventually hope to have some resource people in to do Q&As about things like GIS and data viz.
