Harvey Mudd College's Homework Hotline for grade 4-12

harvey mudd college homework hotline

The Harvey Mudd College Homework Hotline  is a free over-the-phone math and science tutoring service for students in grades 4 through 12 . We’re open four nights per week, Monday through Thursday, from 6 to 9 p.m. PST . We’ve always been a free service, and we always will be.

Our tutors are all students at Harvey Mudd College, one of the top-ranked STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) schools in the nation, and they’re all selected for their technical expertise AND their superior communication skills. They get extra training to make sure they give you the best possible service!

How did we get here?

We launched in 2010 with the help of the  Homework Hotline  at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology. We provide free, over-the-phone tutoring to students in the greater Los Angeles region, Inland Empire and beyond. Since then, we’ve helped thousands of students learn math and science, one call at a time!

How does it work?

A  Homework Hotline  tutor will assist the student caller with guiding questions and encourage the student to be an active participant in their learning. The tutor will use the student’s prior knowledge and encourage the student to use all available resources first. The tutor will also invite the student to write down procedural steps in their own words to help the student solve similar problems on their own.

The goal of the tutor is to help the student caller with one homework question, and then encourage the student to try solving similar problems on their own. The student caller is invited to call the  Homework Hotline  again if they get stuck on another problem (similar or different to the current question).

Student privacy matters to us. We don’t ask for names or phone numbers, though we do ask callers to share their school and grade level for our reporting purposes. We are funded by the Simons Foundation and Harvey Mudd College.

For a more effective call, please be prepared with the following:

  • Homework assignment

We are committed to guiding student callers through their math and science homework questions, Monday through Thursday, from 6 to 9 p.m. There are certain days of the academic year when we will  be closed. These include national holidays and Harvey Mudd College semester breaks and finals week.

The phone number to contact the Harvey Mudd Homework Hotline is 1.877.827.5462

Title : Active carbons as nanoporous materials for solving of environmental problems

However, up to now, the main carriers of catalytic additives have been mineral sorbents: silica gels, alumogels. This is obviously due to the fact that they consist of pure homogeneous components SiO2 and Al2O3, respectively. It is generally known that impurities, especially the ash elements, are catalytic poisons that reduce the effectiveness of the catalyst. Therefore, carbon sorbents with 5-15% by weight of ash elements in their composition are not used in the above mentioned technologies. However, in such an important field as a gas-mask technique, carbon sorbents (active carbons) are carriers of catalytic additives, providing effective protection of a person against any types of potent poisonous substances (PPS). In ESPE “JSC "Neorganika" there has been developed the technology of unique ashless spherical carbon carrier-catalysts by the method of liquid forming of furfural copolymers with subsequent gas-vapor activation, brand PAC. Active carbons PAC have 100% qualitative characteristics of the three main properties of carbon sorbents: strength - 100%, the proportion of sorbing pores in the pore space – 100%, purity - 100% (ash content is close to zero). A particularly outstanding feature of active PAC carbons is their uniquely high mechanical compressive strength of 740 ± 40 MPa, which is 3-7 times larger than that of  such materials as granite, quartzite, electric coal, and is comparable to the value for cast iron - 400-1000 MPa. This allows the PAC to operate under severe conditions in moving and fluidized beds.  Obviously, it is time to actively develop catalysts based on PAC sorbents for oil refining, petrochemicals, gas processing and various technologies of organic synthesis.

Victor M. Mukhin was born in 1946 in the town of Orsk, Russia. In 1970 he graduated the Technological Institute in Leningrad. Victor M. Mukhin was directed to work to the scientific-industrial organization "Neorganika" (Elektrostal, Moscow region) where he is working during 47 years, at present as the head of the laboratory of carbon sorbents.     Victor M. Mukhin defended a Ph. D. thesis and a doctoral thesis at the Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology of Russia (in 1979 and 1997 accordingly). Professor of Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology of Russia. Scientific interests: production, investigation and application of active carbons, technological and ecological carbon-adsorptive processes, environmental protection, production of ecologically clean food.

Hmc introduces joint major in chemistry and climate, share story.

View of Olin building

Harvey Mudd College students interested in chemistry and climate will have the option of making it their main area of study as faculty recently approved a new joint major. Developed by The Hixon Center for Climate and the Environment and the Department of Chemistry, the major in chemistry and climate will be offered starting in the 2024–2025 academic year.

This is the first joint major with a climate focus—more are planned for the other majors at the College. “The idea is for students in any program to be able to study climate,” says Lelia Hawkins, director of the Hixon Center and Hixon Professor of Climate Studies. “Each of the new joint majors with climate will be designed to help students develop literacy in the climate system and climate change while continuing to pursue depth in one of our existing majors (in this case, chemistry).”

The Hixon Center will be primarily responsible for the advising of the joint majors and will be developing new courses, including a four-course series: Climate Dynamics, Climate Impacts, Climate Interventions and Climate Contexts. The Climate Contexts requirement is fulfilled through humanaties, social sciences and the arts coursework, including newly funded courses in religion and climate, anthropology and climate, and human geography and climate.

New faculty members in the Hixon Center are already creating and offering new courses, including Climate Dynamics and Games for Climate Literacy, and plans are in the works for additional courses, including The Chemistry of Oceans and the Atmosphere, and Plants and Climate. “We also envision offering a new course on decarbonization of our energy system, as well as a course on air quality and data science,” says Hawkins, whose research at Mudd centers on the effects of air pollution on climate and anthropogenic climate change. Incoming faculty hires beyond the current cohort will determine which courses are developed next year.

The joint major is distinct from the College’s Emphasis in Environmental Analysis, which is not a major but a coordinated program of study that gives students majoring in the sciences, engineering and mathematics the opportunity to address environmental issues from a range of perspectives so that they may better understand the impact of their work.

“The Emphasis in Environmental Analysis is incredibly flexible, offering students a variety of ways to demonstrate their interest in environmental subjects, while the joint major serves to prepare students specifically on the subject of climate,” Hawkins says. “We want students to be able to take several courses in the area of climate and not be limited by how much elective space they might have in an existing major program. A joint major allows students to develop expertise that would otherwise have to come through overloading courses.”

Hawkins adds that she’s excited about the program getting started. “Students at HMC are already being trained as problem solvers with broad technical foundations as well as critical experience in the humanities, social sciences and the arts. Our new program will leverage these existing strengths to prepare our graduates for leadership and innovation in the climate space,” she says.
