Mary (W) John Smith (M)
W: Hello, may I come in?
M: Oh, yes, come in. How can I help you?
W: I was looking for the Economics office. I’ve been all over the Arts Faculty building looking for it but I could only find the School of Accounting and Economic History. Is this the right place?
M: Yes, this is the School of Economics.
W: Oh, good. My name is Mary. I am a new student and I was wondering if someone could give me some information.
M: Nice to meet you, Mary. I think I might be able to help. I am John Smith. I lecture on that program. What do you need to know?
W: Quite a few things. Firstly, how many lectures a week do I have to attend?
M: Ah, well, the Economics course is a double unit so there are two lectures a week and one tutorial. The lectures are scheduled for Tuesday and Thursday.
W: What time?
M: Let me see.., you know this information is all in the handout which you should have received yesterday at the orientation meeting.
W: Oh, was there a meeting yesterday? I didn’t know about that.
M: Yes, there was. But never mind. New lectures are at four in the afternoon.
W: Four’s a bit late. I’ve got a part time job that starts at four thirty.
M: Well, you can’t be in two places at once. And attendance at lectures is necessary. We expect at least 90% attendance at this university, you know.
W: 90%? That’s high. Maybe I have to omit this one, too. Do they enforce that rule?
M: Yes, we do. We’re pretty strict about it actually.
W: And what times have been sot down for the tutorials?
M: That’s a very well attended course so there are a number of tutorial times. Monday, Wednesday and Friday, all at 9 o’clock. Yours will be allocated at the first lecture.
W: Can’t I choose the time?
M: Maybe, maybe not. You’ll have to talk to the lecturer on the course. Dr. Roberts is his name.
W: Oh, when can I find him?
M: Well, he will arrive here at three o’clock. He will supervise his master students then. But you may have to wait for another forty minutes. Or you can deal with something else first. He won’t leave until maybe five o’clock.
W: What a pity! I have to do my part time job. Is it possible that I leave a message and call on him later?
M: Well, of course. Just a minute! Why don’t you wait until tomorrow? He will attend a meeting at Room 302 this building from a quarter to nine.
W: That’s more reasonable. Thank you for your suggestion. Is it Room 302?
M: Yes. Anything else I can help with while you’re here?
W: Well, yes. Do you know what the course requirements are? I mean, how much work is expected for this course?
M: Well, you have to complete a tutorial paper.
W: What does that involve?
M: Well, it’s a piece of work on a given topic based on some set of reading texts. You’ll have to give a small talk to your tutorial group.
W: How Dong does that have to be?
M: Oh, about 25 minutes usually.
W: I have to talk for 25 minutes?
M: Yes, that’s right. And then you have to write up your piece of work and give it to the lecturer to be marked.
W: Right. And is that all?
M: No. You also have to complete a 3,000-wont essay on a topic.
W: Can I choose the topic?
M: Yes, usually you can.
W: Right. That shouldn’t be too bad.
M: And in addition to that there is an exam.
W: An exam! What sort of exam?
M: Well, it’s an open book exam.
W: Does that mean I can have the textbook with me during the exam?
M: Yes, that’s right.
W: And can you give me any idea about the content of the first year of Economics so that I can get into some reading?
M: Well, you’ll be getting the reading list next week when lectures start. All the books are in the library.
W: Yes, but won’t everyone else take them out as soon as they get the reading list too?
M: Yes, they might. But most of the important ones axe held in Closed Reserve. That’s part of the library where you can go to read books but you can’t take them out of the building. However, we do recommend that you buy the core books. You’ll find them useful and you’ll need them for the exam.
W: Yes, I will. Well thanks for all your help.
M: That’s fine.
