 About the Lab

The main office is located in Hicks Hall in the SGTC Library.  When visiting the Life Lab, students will find an informal, relaxed environment where they can learn at their own pace with the support of a trained staff member or student tutor.

The mission of the Life Lab is to improve student retention by preventing academic problems from becoming the reason for non-attainment of educational goals.  The Life Lab is open from 8:00 a.m. – 4:30 p.m., Monday through Thursday and 8:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. on Fridays.  The telephone number is 229-931-6877.
