TA Information

· TAs are provided for classes that have more than 40 students. Occasionally a TA can be approved for a class that has close to 40 students or places peculiar demands on the instructor. (Check with the Office Manager and the Dept. Chair for approval in those situations).

· If you have a particular student you’ve recruited to be your TA (a good idea, since it’s getting tougher to find qualified and available TAs), you can send the Office Manager a note with a request to hire that individual. She will help the student to get hired. It is a good idea to begin that process a month or two in advance, to ensure student availability and to make sure the student is hired in time for your class.

· If you need a TA but don’t have a particular student lined up for the job, you can inform Brenda, and she will recommend a student from a pool of applicants.
