Student 1(female): Matt, I need your help.
Student 2(male): What do you need help with?
Student 1: I need to talk with my advisor about my schedule for next
semester, but he hasn’t been around lately. I don’t know what to do.
Student 2: Well, why don’t you just schedule an appointment with him?
Student 1: I tried that several times, but he always misses them. Either
his assistant tells me he just had to rush out the door for a meeting, or
he’s out of town doing research.
Student 2: How about you schedule an appointment with one of the other
advisors, or find out when the walk-in appointment hours are for the
office?
Student 1: One of the reasons I chose my current advisor is because he’s
a little famous, and he’s really really helpful with my classes. He’s also
very knowledgeable about my major concentration.
Student 2: Well, it might be useless, but why don’t you try sending him an
e-mail explaining your situation, and note to him how many
appointments he has missed with you?
Student 1: Yeah, I could try that.
Student 2: Another idea is finding out when he teaches class, and then
show up right after his class to talk to him.
Student 1: Hmmmm.
Student 2: And I know you might not want to think about it, but maybe you
should just consider changing your advisor all-together to someone
more reliable and less famous.

Question 5:-> The students discuss several possible solutions to the woman’s
problems. Describe the problem. Then state which solution you prefer
and explain why.
