Terms I wish I had known: Office Hours
Unlocking the hidden vocabulary of higher education.
Office Hours are a time each week set aside by faculty and sometimes program staff for students to come to their offices. It’s a time to ask questions about lecture and assignments, general course content or to get more information about the field you are studying. Office hours also allow faculty to get to know you better, which can benefit you should you need a recommendation from them later.
