What are LaIR helper hours?
LaIR helper hours are an additional set of office hours staffed by our awesome fleet of section leaders. At the LaIR, students can get individual help with debugging and conceptual questions.
For more information on Black LaIR, run by Stanford Black in CS, see their website.
Logistics
LaIR starts in the second week of the quarter and runs Sunday-Thursday, 7-11PM Pacific Time. To sign up for help, add your request to the queue using the LaIR signup page.
We will announce location information about LaIR hours later this week.
Common questions about LaIR
I tried to sign up for the LaIR helper queue, but the queue was closed, even though now is within the open hours for the LaIR.
In times of peak demand, the helpers may need to close the queue to new requests before the end of the open hours. We do this to ensure that we have sufficient resources to assist all students in the queue before the end of the shift.
