Butler Resources - Study Case #4 'Failing Classes'

One thing the student could do is see a counselor. There are three counselors at Butler that I know of and that is Linda Clarke, who is located in the West Dorms on the El Dorado campus, Margaret Hageman, who is in Andover, and Eddie Tejeda, who is at McConnell. They can be emailed at Linda Clarke: lclarke@butlercc.edu Margaret Hageman: mhageman@butlercc.edu Eddie Tejeda: etejeda@butlercc.edu. Another thing the student will need to do and I would highly recommend, is to confess everything to his parents. They will eventually find out, so better he tell them straight up than wait until they find out from someone or somewhere else. Of course for the grades, he can get a tutor and that information is on the butler’s website http://www.butlercc.edu/aac/peertut.cfm. There are books, articles, and pamphlets the student can find on the following sites http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_qa3752/is_199809/ai_n8815840 http://www.ericdigests.org/pre-926/stress.htm and http://www.geneseo.edu/CMS/display.php?page=3774&dpt=health. College students can also post their situations on a forum at this site http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/graduate-school/143645-pass-fail-classes.html
