Dear BIS Students: *The BIS Office Hours will be changing to **10:00 AM to 6:00 PM**, effective immediately, as we prepare for staffing changes.* I will be out of the office from approximately the end of September to the beginning of December on maternity leave. During my time out, the BIS advisors will be replying to the [log in to unmask] email box, which we encourage you to use. My mailbox will contain an auto-reply to alert you to the fact that I will not be checking messages there, as a reminder. Your messages will not be forwarded. You are also very strongly encouraged to call/email ahead to the BIS office when arranging an advising appointment. Then we can assure you that we have an advisor available. Though walk-ins are always welcome and we love to see you, we cannot guarantee you will be able to meet with an advisor unless you have an appointment. *Here is a quick reference for contacting BIS advisors:* -For questions about your degree requirements, graduation status, and BIS second tier credit transfer evaluation, please contact Janet Ha Poirot at [log in to unmask] -For questions regarding the BIS Honors program and general BIS advising, please contact Mark Sistek at [log in to unmask] -For general BIS advising questions, please contact Linda Hemm at [log in to unmask] As always, please let us know if you have any questions.
