Center for Learning Resources
The Center for Learning Resources (CLR) offers free tutoring to undergraduates and graduates seeking extra help with their courses. The tutoring staff includes experienced peer tutors working alongside professional tutors that hold advanced degrees. Professional tutors are instructors at the university and at other local colleges. Peer tutors are highly competent undergraduate and graduate students with excellent academic track records and enthusiastic professor recommendations. Thus, everyone in the CLR brings an intimate understanding of the classroom to each tutoring session.
Approximately 120 CLR workers are on staff each semester. This includes tutors for all subjects that the university offers, in addition to an experienced reception staff, the Writing Center staff, the Grad Lab staff, the Stats Lab staff, and Learning Assistants in the Learning Assistant Program. The CLR is a past recipient of the "Tutoring Program of Excellence Award" from the Association of Tutoring Professionals, all tutors are certified through the College Reading & Learning Association, and though many tutors work in person, Zoom tutoring is also available.
The mission of the Writing Center is to provide high-quality writing assistance to undergraduates and graduates as they work on compositions for a range of purposes and audiences. Writing tutors come from programs including Biology, Communications, Criminal Justice, National Security, Engineering, English, Environmental Science, Finance, Forensic Science, Legal Studies, Marine Biology, Music, Nutrition, Healthcare Administration, and Psychology. Writing tutors work with undergraduates and graduates at any stage of the writing process and are especially apt at helping with issues of MLA and APA styles. Like other tutors, they also hold workshops throughout the semester.
The Grad Lab is specifically organized for the needs of graduate students. Much of the work done in the lab is computer based, where graduates come for help with programming languages (C/C++, Python, R/R Studio) and work on data analysis for MBA courses. There are also MBA tutors that work out of the Orange Campus. The Stats Lab is the CLR's newest division, offering statistical and quantitative support for students working in such subjects. It operates alongside the CLR's growing support for graduate manuscript support, offered by professional English and ESL staff.
The Learning Assistant Program is the second-largest subset of the CLR, after the peer and professional tutors. Approximately 50 LAs attend all courses with their paired professors, then they hold office hours in the CLR. Thus, LAs are sometimes referred to as "embedded tutors." LAs generally support STEM courses, such as Calculus I and II, Biology I and II, Gen Chem I and II, Organic Chemistry I and II, and Physics I and II. In recent semesters, however, LAs have been placed in Criminal Justice, English, and Italian courses, as well as abroad at the Prato campus.
The CLR is located in the lower level of the Peterson Library. All tutoring is available on an appointment and a walk-in basis. Write to CLR@NewHaven.edu, call (203) 932-7215, or consult the CLR website through Navigate to make an appointment.

Grievances Against Faculty Members
The procedure for investigating formal grievances against faculty members is governed by the General Grievance Committee, empowered by the Faculty Constitution.
This committee is accessible to all students at the University of New Haven, and its policies apply to all instructors at the University. Its jurisdiction extends to all grievances involving faculty except for allegations of racial/sexual harassment (a separate committee addresses those issues) and cases handled by the student discipline system.
A student who wishes to initiate a grievance against an instructor can obtain a copy of the complete statement of the Committee's Policies and Procedures, as well as the form required to document the grievance, from the offices of the Dean of Students, the Faculty Senate, the Provost, or from the Committee Chair. There is a limit of one year between the time the grievous event happens and the time the student must first contact the Grievance Committee.
How to Pursue a Grievance
Student grievances against an instructor demand a sincere effort towards resolution, from both the student and the instructor, before they reach the committee. The student should first speak with the instructor regarding the complaint. If the issue is not resolved, consult with the chair of the department which employs the instructor. Normally, complaints can be resolved at this level. If the issue is not resolved, consult with the dean of the school which employs the instructor and then the Office of the Provost. The form used to initiate a grievance against a faculty member provides space for each of these individuals to document what was accomplished at each of those levels. This important information allows the committee to fully understand the student's complaint and to decide how to resolve the complaint effectively.
Interacting with the Grievance Committee
In those instances where the instructor's superiors cannot resolve the complaint, the grievance is forwarded to the Grievance Committee. The committee follows a formal procedure for gathering evidence and scheduling hearings as necessary. Both the instructor and the student have special rights and obligations during this process, so it is important to obtain a copy of the statement of Policies and Procedures. All the committee's actions are kept confidential. The conclusions of the committee are binding and are reported to the Provost for implementation.
