Webpage for Math 105 (Topics in Mathematics), Line # 52920 Spring 2015, Hire a Tutor at Your Own Risk

[Hire Tutor at Your Own Risk]

The KU Mathematics Department used to strongly discourage

students from hiring a tutor. "You may hire a tutor at your own

risk. We are not liable for the intellectual shortfall you may incur

due to your tutor's incompetence." That is what the Mathematics

Department used to have its own faculty members pass along to

our students.

Now, currently, the Mathematics Department feels secure about

the liability issue in any adversarial situation potentially inflicted by

students or their parents for their dissatisfaction stemming from the

discrepancy between the way we teach and the way their tutors teach,

and thus is no longer concerned about students' hiring of tutors.

Kachi's opinion? You don't need one. Kachi assures you the following

will suffice:

• attending classes,

• doing all the course work, and

• using office hours (optional).

Nothing else is required.

In case:

• "Office Hours Schedule"
