When recruiting lab monitors under the Math/CSCI/Stat 295 label, an application for teaching assistantship needs to be filed, by the sponsoring faculty member (called instructor), with the department office. Forms are available in the top drawer of the file cabinet in the copy room. Similarly, for MTHE 293 an individual enrollment form from the registrar needs to be filed by the sponsoring faculty member, with the department office. After registration for the course, the student should visit the chair of the laboratory committee (Goutziers, FH 230) for scheduling of their laboratory time.
