USC's Supplemental Instruction Program
has had tremendous success in increasing the course
material understanding and raising the grades of students who
actively take advantage of its offerings.
Our SI Leader attends our Main Lectures and
also holds study sessions 3 nights a week
to answer your questions on the Main Lecture,
to give hints on homework, and to work additional problems.
So come to as many of these highly recommended SI classes as you can,
ready with your questions for the SI Leader.
