[ED-TECH] LaTeX usage at UM?

Ed-Tech people,

I ran into LaTeX years ago when I was teaching Computer Science. It is used for typesetting and publication of technical documents in mathematics, physics, and computer science, as well as documents that contain multiple languages, such as Sanskrit and Arabic.

Every year a few students hunt for help with LaTeX. 
  • Can anyone tell me where it is used at UM? 
  • Do you know of any faculty or staff that are already running, or might be willing to run, a workshop every semester? 
  • Do you have any suggestion for how (or whether) support is provided for use of this writing tool?
