Fall 2020 Virtual Office Hours

The OpenLab is a great community-run platform from which to expand your web presence. But we realize that you may need support in setting up your OpenLab site, or managing it as our semester continues. The OpenLab team is here to help!

We have scheduled virtual office hours this fall (see full schedule below), with two kinds: one-on-one appointments, and open drop-in hours.  Both kinds offer the opportunity to meet with a member of the OpenLab Community Team. All office hours are held via Google Hangouts and are open to faculty, staff, and students. 

Drop-In Office Hours

Support in drop-in office hours is first-come, first-served. If possible, please reach out to the OpenLab team in advance to let us know what questions you have so we can be prepared. Our drop-in office hours will take place during the following days and times:

One-On-One Appointments

This semester, we also have a limited number of one-on-one/private appointments available. All of these appointments will take place on the same days listed above, but either immediately before or immediately after the drop-in hours. Due to the large number of people requesting live support this semester, these 1:1 appointments will be limited to 30 minutes each. If you want additional support, please also attend the drop-in hours.
