The Pomona Center for Speaking, Writing, and the Image (CSWIM), Quantitative Skills Center (QSC), and Language Partners offer free, one-on-one consultations to all students enrolled in Pomona College courses.
The Center for Speaking, Writing and the Image's mission is to provide an inclusive and collaborative space for students to talk about their writing, speaking, and image-related projects and processes. We welcome all kinds of communicative projects, including academic, creative, professional, and personal, in all stages of development, from brainstorming to the final draft. Our aim is to center students’ voices and goals as they navigate varying expectations of communication across genres.

The QSC is here to help you get a handle on those quantitative methods, concepts, and questions that many Pomona College courses cover. What do we mean by quantitative skills? We mean those skills related to empirical inquiry via mathematical, statistical, or computational data gathering and analysis. In other words, the ability to take data (numerical, categorical, or ordinal), or scientific concepts, and make sense of them. These skills are not limited to just math and physics. Many courses in biology, chemistry, computer science, psychology, neuroscience, economics, politics, and sociology use quantitative methods (often having to do with statistical data analysis). The QSC is here to make sure you get the help you need to sharpen your quantitative skillset so you can perform better in your courses.
