To indicate that they are comfortable answering student questions, you will be asked to wear a red Ask Me button, and put up Ask Me poster in your place of work or in a select area of campus. Some Ask Me volunteers will assist students with questions and directions at a tent on the TFDL quad throughout Fall Orientation.
