Assessment of Student Academic Achievement - Student learning is central to all
that we do at the College. Faculty assess student learning in a variety of
ways, including in-course assessments, portfolios, certification examinations,
employer surveys, transfer studies, and many others. The College measures its
effectiveness through the results of our assessment of student learning and
uses those results to improve student learning.
Students with Disabilities - It is
Tutoring Services - Tutoring services are available for most courses. These
services are provided free of charge. Tutoring is provided by professional and
student tutors. Tutor request cards are located at the Brinkman Receptionist's
desk and in
Course Withdrawal - If for any reason you cannot complete this or any other
course, you must officially withdraw from the class. Even if you never attend
class, if you are officially enrolled in a course, you will receive a grade for
the course unless you complete and submit a drop form with appropriate
signatures to the registrar. If you have not completed all of the work, that
grade can only be an F. Drop forms are available in the division office, in the
counseling office, or from the registrar.
After midterm, you must have the instructor's permission to withdraw from a
class; therefore, his or her signature must be on the form before you submit it
to the registrar. For the last date to withdraw without the signature of the
instructor, check the quarterly schedule. If you do decide to withdraw from a
class and have any kind of financial aid, you should consult with the financial
aid office prior to the withdrawal to determine what, if any, effect it will
have on your financial aid status.
Incomplete Grade - If you have been progressing satisfactorily in a course, but
for reasons beyond your control (death in family, personal illness, etc.) you
cannot complete all of the requirements for the course, you can request an
incomplete grade (I) from the instructor. If the instructor agrees, you will
work out a mutually agreeable completion schedule. The instructor will complete
a grade change form once the course work is completed. If the
grade change is not submitted by the Friday of the fifth week of the following
term (fall for both spring and summer), the grade will automatically change to
an F.
Academic Dishonesty - Using the ideas, expressions, writings, etc., of another
person and representing them as your own is one form of academic dishonesty and
can result in severe penalties, including failure on a project or in a course.
Plagiarism includes not only word-for-word copying but also the use of the general
ideas of another without giving appropriate credit to the source. Students are
responsible for knowing the Law and Order Regulations in the college catalog.
Children in Classes - Children are not allowed in classes without the prior
approval of the instructor. No children are allowed in lab classrooms or lab
sessions. If permission is granted to bring a child into a class, it is the
parent's responsibility to see that the child in no way disturbs other students
or the class in general. Even after permission is granted, the instructor
always has the right to ask a parent and child to leave a class if any kind of
disruption takes place. Individuals who bring children to the college for any
reason are expected to supervise them at all times.
Student Username/Login ID and Password - Students are provided a username/login
ID and password to access the College's network, Campus Cruiser and WebCT. The username/login ID is the first five letters of
your last name followed by your first initial followed by the last four digits
of your student identification number. (If your last name is less than five
characters, use your entire last name, first initial, last four digits.) Do not
include any spaces, special characters, or capital letters. The password is the
7-digit student identification number. The username/login ID and password are
printed on your quarterly schedule/invoice. Secured login assistance is
available at https://www.clarkstate.edu/login.html.
