From the Boss
Leap@CMU
- If you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask us!
There is no such thing as a silly or bad question.
And we aren't mind readers (yet).
Besides...chances are somebody else has the same question.
- Visit the Faculty Talks/Schedule regularly!
The schedule changes and if you forget what's up
this is your chance to plan ahead.
- We like to eat!
A group luncheon will usually be served on Wednesdays, unless there is a field trip.
This is a great time to raise questions, to open up discussions,
and to just generally get to know everyone!
- Please don't be late for class.
Yeah, yeah. We know this is what you hear all the time.
But other people are counting on you to be there.
In class, everyone is important and everyone plays a part. We notice your absence.
If you anticipate missing a class or lab session, let us know!
- DO NOT Be Afraid of the Interesting Test!
This test is not intended to scare you off.
It's a mechanism to assure you all can work at a common level and
to make sure the class feels comfortable with the courses we offer.
- DO NOT Worry if you don't understand something.
Not everything is easy or intuitive.
When you don't understand something, ask for help.
Remember, when you find something difficult to master, this is
when real learning begins....
Eureka moments can be exhilarating.
