TERRE HAUTE, Ind. (AP): The phones are ringing again at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology for Indiana's Homework Hotline.
The free math and science tutoring service for students in grades 6-12 has started up for its 23rd year.
The college students who work as tutors take an average of 300 calls an evening nearly 37,000 in all for last school year.
Hotline assistant director Tony Karras says it's fantastic when the hotline's office is buzzing with calls.
Tutors also help students by email and online chats. The hotline number is 1-877-ASK-ROSE. Tutors are available between 7 p.m. and 10 p.m. Sundays through Thursdays.
