Response to Online Videos 

These videos were very informational! The only thing I knew about Alden Library before this was where my class is inside and that the President lives across the street.  I had no idea that there were different themed floors.  That comes in handy if I ever need to research government documents or different maps. 

What I found to be reassuring was The Academic Advancement Center.  I feel that is a great system to have, not only for the new students but anyone that is struggling in a topic.  Having someone teach you one on one really helps you understand the material better.  Some people are embarrassed or scared to ask for help.  I feel tutoring is a very effective way to learn.  Some people get distracted or side tracked in really big classes.  Having a tutor would eliminate that and get you back on track.  I recommend these videos to ALL freshman.  They are very helpful to get to know the school a little bit better.  It differently helped me understand all the floors of Alden and how our library system works.
