 Addendum to Syllabus As part of the concurrent enrollment project the ABS department is offering, a support class has been developed that is mandatory for the ABE students. This support class will offer remediation in foundational math where needed and help in developing critical problem-solving skills necessary for being successful in a college credit math course. Homework and studying support is provided as well. The class is also offered to all veterans and to any other students that Professor Cathy Mulleary thinks would benefit.  The support class is offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10am to 12pm in room G-7. This is not a drop-in class. If interested, students must commit for the entire term. Attendance will be taken. MTH63 SUPPORT CLASS
