My office hours for December 4th have been moved to the College of Architecture Room 261. This is in the West wing (concrete building), and its on the 2nd floor on the end closest to Van Leer. In addition to that, I am preparing for my final review so I will probably be at the College of Architecture all day tomorrow (and probably all night too :( ) so If you need any help feel free to poke around either in studio (room 261) or in the Design shop in the basement. Please note that if you do decide to take me up on this offer and come for help DO NOT come between the hours of 8:00a-12:30p - this is my classtime and it would be very disrespectful for you to interupt the class. Furthermore, since I am going to be working back and forth trying to get all my work done I will not guarantee that I will for sure be in one of those two places, so if you can't find me...sorry, guess you weren't lucky. Also if you need help come with specific questions - I don't mind taking a break from my work to help you if you are trying; also, I probably (depending on my mood) will not take any questions after 10pm. Oh, and just in case you're a little unsure, I will absolutely, positively, most definitely going to be in room 261 from 2-3 (office hours). Also don't be afraid if I have a grumpy/mean look on my face...I haven't had much sleep ;p Student3703
