The H-Bar 

A Physics Discussion Space and Snack Bar

H-Bar Homework Help Sessions

The physics department is continuing an activity called the "H(elp)-Bar" which serves as a physics discussion space. The H-Bar is a safe, non-judgmental and non-competitive space for physics students to receive help with their coursework from their peers and graduate student volunteers.

Physics is a very collaborative field, and H-Bar is a great place to get to know other students in your courses and solve problems together. Beyond physics course help, H-Bar is a good place to ask about undergraduate research, graduate school, or other physics-related topics. All students in physics courses or interested in physics are welcome! Free snacks will be available!

Questions can be directed to the H-Bar TA, Morgan Walker (mawwalker@ucdavis.edu).
