How can I make a private appointment for more assistance?

You may make appointments by e-mail, telephone or in person with:

• April Apperson: aapperson@ucsd.edu or 858-534-6324
• Steve Schneid: sschneid@ucsd.edu or 858-534-6962
• Paul Kingston: pkingsto@ucsd.edu or 858-534-8599
• Nora Laiken: nlaiken@ucsd.edu or 858-534-2131

1) By e-mail:

Please include four times that you can be available and that do not fall during:

• Scheduled core course lectures, conferences, or labs
• OESS open hours for that staff member

The staff member will reply by e-mail with the first listed appointment time during which he/she is available.

2) By telephone:

If the staff member doesn't answer, please leave a voice mail with your telephone number and four times that you can be available – again avoiding the conflicts listed for appointments by e-mail. The staff member will reply by telephone or e-mail with the first appointment time available.

 

3) In person:

• If the door is open or the staff member is alone in his/her office, feel free to knock and ask for an appointment.
• If students are in the office (open hours or private appointments), please wait until the last five minutes or first five minutes of an hour to knock. Or you may send an e-mail (see above).
• Staff members usually attend lectures related to their areas of expertise, so a convenient time to ask about setting up an appointment is before or after lecture
