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, Lotte Borkowski (lborkowski@ucdavis.edu).

H-bar will be in Phy 185 on Tuesdays 4:00-6:00 pm and in Phy 285 on Thursdays 5:00-7:00 pm, starting on Tuesday 04/9/2024.
