Biology Advisor Resources
Thanks for your support of our students. The Biology Advisor Information Sheet outlines basic advising policies, advisor responsibilities and resources for advising. In addition, the resources below should be helpful. We are here to help, so please feel free to contact us with questions.
The Web for Advisors training is required for all Biology advisors so they can access student records and registration PINs. Biology advisors are also required to attend an orientation meeting or meet individually with Brock - contact Brock for details.
