Multi-Service Center – Cambridge

 

The Multi-Service Center (MSC) is the Cambridge arm of the Learning Resource Center providing library, testing and academic support services.

The MSC houses 16 computers where users can word process, complete course work, conduct research and access online academic resources. The MSC also houses a closed Reserve Collection for student use, where instructors may leave course specific materials, including books, articles, and other learning aids to be used on site.

Library Instruction is also a function of the MSC, providing general information literacy sessions as well as assignment specific instruction to classes face-to-face.  To arrange assistance, please contact Bridget Wood at bwood@chesapeake.edu.

The Cambridge Testing Center is housed in the MSC, providing academic testing for those with accommodations, those approved to take a make-up test, or students in online classes. Please remember that the Cambridge Testing Center does not have the same hours as the Testing Center in Wye Mills (Please check the college website for the most up to date information).

Academic support is provided in the MSC, including tutoring for math, writing, technology and science, as well as support for other general education courses. Tutoring is done face-to-face, online, individually and in groups by professional tutors and/or peer tutors. These services are provided free to all Chesapeake College students, whether they are taking classes in Cambridge, Wye Mills, off site or online. To invite a tutor to visit your class to promote our services, email bwood@chesapeake.edu
