Appointments
Appointments are available to students, faculty, prospective students, and campus partners. Appointments are recommended when students are requesting disability‑related accommodations or when questions or concerns would benefit from more time and discussion.
Zoom, in-person, or phone appointments can be scheduled by sending us an email at drsfrontdesk@wwu.edu. Please include a few general days/times you are available to meet when reaching out via email or leaving a voicemail. You can also call at (360) 650-3083 or come in-person to Wilson Library 170.
Drop-in Hours
If you have quick questions or general concerns—whether you're faculty, a prospective or current student, or a campus partner—you're welcome to stop by during our drop-in hours. These sessions are intended for brief, 15-minute conversations and are a convenient way to get quick answers without scheduling a formal appointment.
Please note that topics that are complex, layered, or require time to talk things through should be addressed in a scheduled appointment rather than drop-in hours.
Drop-in hours are held in person at Wilson Library 170 (unless noted otherwise) or virtually via Zoom (links provided below).
Monday: Charlie Flewelling 2pm - 3pm Zoom only
Tuesday: Gretchen Rumsey-Richardson 3pm - 4pm
Wednesday: Amelia Flores 12pm - 2pm
Thursday: Axel Cichocki 10am - 12pm
Friday: Kathleen DeNicola 9am - 11am
