Here are some valuable resources for any first-generation college student! (You do not have to be first-generation to use these resources).
Lending Library
The Office of Diversity, Equity & Inclusion has a library that they let students rent out books they need for their classes for the whole semester, FREE OF CHARGE! Be sure to email lendinglibrary@holycross.edu to see if they have any books you need this semester!
Office Hours
Be sure to take advantage of your professor's office hours. This is valuable time that you have with your professor to get help on your homework, clear up something you did not understand in the lecture or reading, or even have a conversation about courses or other opportunities on campus!
