There are no regular advising times during the Summer!
Over Summer, email Dr. Jonathan Tomkin, tomkin@illinois.edu for assistance with the ESES major. He will get back to you as soon as he can.
During Fall and Spring semesters we have a lot of available advising times. Although we don't have scheduled advising outside of regular semesters, urgent issues can come up: send a direct email to an advisor asking for help.
For reference, last Spring, the faculty took advising appointments at the following times:
Dr. Brown 10:00-11:30 AM Tuesday (on-campus) and 10:00-4:00 PM Wednesday (Virtual/Zoom only),
Dr. Kanter 1:00 PM-4:30 PM Monday and 10:00 AM-3:30 PM Friday (with 12:00-12:30 off for lunch),
Dr. Meghani 2:00-4:30 PM Monday, and
Dr. Tomkin 1:00 PM to 3:30 PM Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday (for both on-campus and Zoom)
