Beatrice Lazar

“It would be helpful, especially if a student had a concern or was uncomfortable, but didn’t feel comfortable expressing it any other way.”

Michelle Huang
Second-year, musical performance
“Yes, because that way professors can know how the class is feeling before the end of the quarter, and they can make changes.”

Raymond Chang
