I'm going to post some times, that I will be free to help in B67 with creating plates for next Wednesday's class. These are just for the next few days, I will create a more solid schedule for the rest of the semester based upon feedback from you, when you're free. Text me if any of these times work for you. I will be in B67 working on Saturday, January 15 from 2-6 pm and Monday, January 17 from 10 am - 4 pm. If you need help at some time other than those, shoot me a text and I will answer your questions. My phone number is 540-414-4419. - Sarah Bennett
