HOW TO FIND US

Come visit us in our temporary location in Wallace Library, Suite A600. It can be tricky to find us since Wallace is under construction, but the A-Level remains accessible (through the basement level of Liberal Arts Hall, and through the back entrance of Wallace Library).

How to access the ECC during Wallace Library construction

WHAT IS THE ECC?

At the ECC, students meet with peer consultants for one-on-one help with all phases of presentation preparation and delivery, including

• Selecting a topic
• Preparing an outline
• Designing slides
• Practicing delivery
• Managing anxiety

The content of every session is different because consultants focus on students’ individual needs.

In-person, virtual, and small group appointments available

• In-person appointments. Arrive at Wallace Library, suite A600 at your scheduled appointment time.
• Virtual individual appointments. To join a virtual appointment, shortly before your appointment time, log in and click on your appointment in the scheduling system, and then select the red 'start or join online consultation' link.
• Small group appointments. In-person small group appointments will take place in Wallace Library, suite A600. Small groups may also schedule virtual appointments. To do this, have one group member make the appointment. On the appointment intake form, they must select the "group" option and provide the emails of the other group members. A Zoom meeting join link will be emailed to the group members.

*If you require interpreting services, please make interpreting requests through Access Services. We also have an ASL fluent consultant, DJ Majocha, on staff for spring 2022.

Spring 2022 Walk-In Hours

We have a limited number of walk-in hours that will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Each available walk-in slot appears on the scheduling calendar and opens fifteen minutes before its start and remains open until it fills or the time passes. This allows you to make appointments as you arrive or when you're ready to start your meeting.
