CD collection and CD players are available for students to study for their music courses or to just stop by and enjoy a musical break in their busy day. Math Instructional videotapes that correspond to course textbooks are available for several math classes. If you get stuck, ask one of the math tutors to help you. Tapes on using a calculator, such as the TI-83, TI-85 or TI-86 are also available.
