This year, Katie Frye, a teaching assistant for MCB 150, enjoys engaging, active learning classrooms and other advanced facilities for her students. That’s because Frye, a graduate student in the Department of Microbiology, conducts her office hours and teaches in the new learning center located in Burrill Hall.
