CLASS CANCELLATION PROCESS
The Instructional Media Department has the responsibility to post the daily cancellations promptly and accurately, but can do so only if the established procedures for canceling classes are carefully followed.
Depending on the time of day, you should call as follows:
Between 7:30 AM and 9 PM Monday through Friday, call 431-8940 and give the information to Instructional Media Department staff.
Between 9 PM and 7:30 AM, you must call 431-8679. Listen carefully to the prompts and respond to all the questions asked by the voice mail interview box.
Please do not call any other voice mailbox to report your class cancellation.
Please be prepared with the specific information before you call to cancel class. When you call the voice mail interview box, you must be ready to respond as you will not have time to look for the information after you have started the call. You should keep a copy of your class schedule with all of the required information at home in case you have to cancel individual classes. Upon calling the interview box, you will hear the following pre-recorded instructions:
"To cancel your classes, please listen closely to the following nine (9) questions and record your responses at the beep. It is extremely important to answer all the questions in order to have this cancellation properly documented.
1. Please state your name.
2. State the day and date of cancellation.
3. Are you canceling all of your day and evening classes? Please state only: Yes or No.
4. If you have an evening class, you must now indicate the course and section, time the class normally starts, and room in which it is held; otherwise, state: No evening classes.
5. If you are not canceling all your classes, you must indicate the course and
section, time the class normally starts and room in which it is held. State: The following class(es) only are canceled (and state the class(es); otherwise, make no response).
6. If any of your classes are taught at DCC South, please indicate the class section now; (otherwise, state: None at DCC South).
7. If any of your classes are taught at an off-campus location other than DCC South, please indicate the class section now (otherwise, make no response).
8. State the time that your last class of the day normally starts.
9. State the reason you are canceling classes.”
This information will be recorded and placed on the DCC-TV campus message channel, the recorded information line (431-8001), and Class Cancellations on the DCC website.
Instructors are also encouraged to record special instructions to students in the personal greeting of their own Voice Mailboxes. Students should be informed at the beginning of the semester to call the instructor's office number for special instructions when the instructor is absent. Your cooperation is appreciated.
Revised 8/1/05
GRADE APPEAL PROCESS
Informal Appeal Process
If a student wishes to discuss a grade that he/she has received for a test or an assignment or the final grade in a course, this step is for the student to meet with the instructor to resolve the concern in an informal manner.
Formal Appeal Process
Introduction
It is the responsibility of Dutchess Community College faculty members to establish clear grading policies and standards for academic performance in their courses. These policies must be stated in writing. Individual approaches to grading are valid, as long as faculty members evaluate student work fairly and consistently, there should be no need for students to challenge their grading.
Grounds for Formal Appeal
Students may appeal grades in DCC courses on the following grounds, provided that they have evidence, or believe that evidence exists, to support their claims:
A. Failure by the instructor to explain clearly the method by which grades in the course would be determined.
B. Assignment of a course grade by substantial departure from the announced method.
C. Capricious or prejudiced grading.
Step 1
To initiate a formal appeal, the student must obtain a Grade Appeal Form from the academic department secretary, The Office of Student Services, or the Office of Academic Affairs. Complete the first portion of the Grade Appeal Form and submit it to the instructor and request a meeting. This meeting should normally take place within fourteen days of the instructor’s receipt of the Grade Appeal Form. If the student goes first to the Dean, Academic Department Head or Departmental Supervisor, that person should refer the student to the instructor as the first step in the process. Under extraordinary circumstances, the Department Head may choose to waive the first step and proceed to set up a meeting with the student and the instructor as outlined in Step Two.
The formal appeal of a grade for a test or assignment must begin within thirty calendar days of the receipt of the grade. If the appeal is related to the grade for a course, the process is similar to that for an assignment or test grade, except that the student has until the end of the second week of the following semester to begin the process.
Step 2
If the meeting with the instructor does not result in a solution satisfactory to the student, the student has fourteen calendar days to appeal to the Department Head.
The Department Head will review the Grade Appeal Form and attached materials, and meet with the student and the instructor to discuss the matter. The Department Head will report his/her decision and rationale in writing to both the student and the instructor within fourteen days of meeting with the student and the instructor.
Step 3
If the decision of the Department Head does not result in a satisfactory resolution, the student or instructor may submit, within fourteen days of receiving the decision of the Department Head, the Grade Appeal Form to the Dean of Academic Affairs, as an appeal to an Academic Review Committee. The Committee, consisting of three members, will be chaired by an Associate Dean of Academic Affairs, appointed by the Dean of Academic Affairs. The Associate Dean will choose the two additional members of the committee from the faculty on the Academic Standards Committee. The faculty selected for the committee will be from outside the academic department with which the appeal is concerned.
The Academic Review Committee will meet and consider all the documentation provided by the Department Head, the student and the instructor. Both the student and the instructor will be given an opportunity to appear before the Academic Review Committee. The Committee will report its decision and rationale in writing to the student, the Department Head and the instructor normally within fourteen days of the Committee meeting. A copy of the Academic Review Committee’s decision and rationale will also be sent to the Dean of Academic Affairs.
Step 4
If the student or instructor does not accept the decision of the Committee, that decision may be appealed to the Dean of Academic Affairs within fourteen days for final review. The Dean of Academic Affairs, with full access to all documentation from previous levels of appeal, and any additional conferences with involved parties, will be the final College arbiter of the appeal. The Dean’s decision will normally be made within fourteen calendar days of the date on which the appeal was received from the student or instructor.
The Dean will report his/her decision and rationale in writing to the student, the Department Head, the instructor, and the members of the Academic Review Committee.
NOTE: The timetable noted above assumes no interruptions in the regular college calendar, such as semester or spring breaks, which would alter the timetable. For an appeal of a grade for a spring semester course, the “following semester” is defined as the following fall semester.

Although faculty and staff are not sent overdue notices or charged fines, materials overdue are subject to immediate recall if needed by another patron. At the end of the Spring semester, the library will send you a reminder to return or renew books signed out to you.
Since adjunct faculty members’ library privileges are extended only during semesters in which they are under contract, library books signed out to them must be returned at the end of each semester.
ELECTRONIC RESOURCES
To assist the DCC community in research, the library subscribes to a variety of database services. While some of the databases are indices providing only citation information, the majority contain the full text of articles appearing in journals, magazines, and newspapers. The library also subscribes to specialized databanks and e-books covering the areas of art, literature, history and the sciences. These services can be searched from any computer on campus, including DCC South, equipped with an Internet browser. Access to the library’s electronic resources is through the library's homepage at under the “Research Tools” link.
Those who have Internet accounts can search many of these databases from home. For information on how to use the library's Off-Campus Databases Access service, contact the reference department at extension 8634.
REFERENCE SERVICES
The library’s reference department provides DCC faculty and staff with assistance in all aspects of research. The reference staff can perform in-depth searches of the literature for faculty, as well as provide one-on-one training in using the library’s resources. Reference services are available whenever the library is open. Feel free to stop by the library, or contact the reference staff at extension 8634. Brief factual questions can be submitted electronically by sending email to refdesk@sunydutchess.edu. You can also contact the reference department via Instant Messenger. Connect to the screen name dutchesslibrary.
COURSE RESERVES
A valid SUNY Card is required to use reserve items. Many course texts are available on reserve in the library. Generally, texts are available for any course in which the enrollment is at least one hundred. Brief records for all reserve items, including textbooks and articles are included in the online catalog. If you wish to peruse the items available for a particular course, enter the course designation as a search term.
If you wish to place items on reserve, please complete a "Request for Materials to Be Placed on Library Reserve". Forms are available from Johann Lettieri at extension 8632. Reserves are processed as quickly as possible. However, please allow a minimum of 24 hours between the time the library receives the request and the time you announce it in class.
All items on reserve must comply with copyright regulations. If you have any questions regarding compliance, please contact Pat Sheehan, Head of Circulation Services (extension 8631) for assistance. Responsibility for copyright clearance rests with the faculty member.
If you are a Blackboard user, you may wish to consider including required or suggested readings in your Blackboard course. For more information, contact Ron Crovisier at 431-8634.
INFORMATION LITERACY AND LIBRARY INSTRUCTION FOR STUDENTS
Faculty are encouraged to make arrangements for their students to receive information literacy training through the library. Types of training provided include: general workshops on the library's services and resources, discipline-specific orientations to information access tools, and all aspects of Internet research. To schedule a workshop for your students, contact the reference staff at extension 8634. If you plan to bring a class to the library to use the reference area or for a tour, contact the reference staff to ensure that another class is not already scheduled to use the facilities.
INTERLIBRARY LOAN SERVICES
If a book or article cannot be found in our library, it may be available from another library through interlibrary loan. This service is available to all current staff and faculty. Requests can be made by contacting the Christine Craig at extension 8636. Copies of articles may either be picked up at the library or mailed to faculty and staff. Books must be picked up at the circulation desk located just inside the main entrance of the library. Note that interlibrary loan is also available to current students. Students may contact the reference librarian to complete a request form.
LIBRARY LIAISON PROGRAM
The Library Liaison program exists to establish formal and informal, ongoing working relationships between the library and individual college departments. The program's goal is to enhance communication between the library staff and college faculty, resulting in improved resources for all academic programs. The program consists of a faculty liaison from each department and a librarian liaison counterpart.
Each academic department receives an annual allowance for the purchase of materials to be added to the library collection. Each month, faculty liaisons are mailed Choice cards, which may be used in selecting appropriate materials. Librarian liaisons also route publisher's catalogs and other items that may be of interest to the various departments. Faculty liaisons forward their requests for purchase to their librarian liaison. When the items are ordered, an account balance is forwarded to the faculty liaison. Faculty liaisons are also notified when items received have been cataloged. If you would like to request an item for purchase, please contact your faculty liaison. This year's liaisons are:

Disability Services provides counseling and academic support to students with documented disabilities. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, a person with a disability is defined as someone with a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities. Individuals with disabilities are guaranteed certain protections and rights to accommodations based upon documentation of the disability. Eligibility for services requires documentation from a physician or a qualified licensed professional.
Available services include, but are not limited to:
• testing and classroom accommodations
• notetakers / scribes
• interpreters
• student advocacy
• counseling
• liaison with outside agencies such as VESID and local high schools
• adaptive equipment
• coordination and referral to other DCC services

The Office of Disability Services will provide out-of-class testing accommodations for students who have provided us with documentation of their disability.
The Office of Disability Services strives to maintain a testing policy that is nondiscriminatory and assures the integrity of the examination process.
1. Students are responsible for arranging for their testing through the Office of Disability Services at least (3) business days in advance of the test. To arrange for a test, you must complete the blue “Sign Up Sheet for Alternative Testing”. It is not the faculty’s responsibility to register a student for testing with our office.
2. Testing accommodations are available between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. This Office requests that for students taking evening classes faculty make the accommodation.
3. Students who come to Disability Services to complete an exam for which they have not signed up for or for which they are late, may be sent back to the classroom.
4. In the event of a surprise quiz, our Office will do its best to accommodate your needs. When space or a proctor is not available, you will be sent back to the classroom to make alternative arrangements with your instructor.
5. If you need accommodations other then extended time (i.e. reader, scribe, computer etc.) to assist you during your test, you must indicate your needs when you sign up.
6. Each student will be responsible for making arrangements to pick up the test before it is given or have the faculty member deliver the test to us. Disability Services staff are not responsible for calling faculty members to make arrangements.
7. If there are special instructions, modifications or exceptions to a particular test, these must be indicated on the gold “Exam Proctoring Form” which you must have completed for each test.
8. If you have any questions during your test, you should ask a Disability Services staff member and not other students or the proctor. If a staff member is unable to assist you, you may be allowed to call a faculty member.
9. The amount of extra time a student receives for testing is individually determined based upon the documentation of their disability.
10. A student is not allowed to leave the test site without permission of the proctor or staff member. A student may not leave the test site to return at a later time, nor will the student be allowed to start a test one day and complete it the next day.
11. Students using computers will use stand alone computers that have no networking ability. You are not permitted to bring your own disk, if necessary this office will supply clean, blank disks.

FIELD TRIPS
Faculty members may schedule field trips at their own discretion. Each faculty member is, however, responsible for making all the arrangements necessary to make the trip a worthwhile educational experience.
The Academic Dean’s Office should be informed of all field trips at least two weeks in advance and should be supplied with a list of students involved. The Request for Approval of Field Trip form must be submitted for approval of the Dean of Academic Affairs at least two weeks prior to the date of the trip. Copies of approved field trip requests will be automatically forwarded to the Director of Scheduling so that the necessary notice concerning students being excused from classes can be included in the “Schedule of Events.” In order to minimize class conflicts, faculty members should not generally plan more than one field trip a semester, outside of normal class meeting times, for a given class. Field trips are not to be scheduled during the week when mid-term grades are due or during the fourteenth or fifteenth week of the semester. Field trips cannot be a course requirement unless scheduled prior to grades being submitted.
FIRE DRILLS
Unannounced fire drills are held several times throughout the year. All occupants of the building are required to participate in each drill. Instructions for vacating buildings in the event of a fire drill or fire are posted in every classroom and office, and each instructor is responsible for acquainting the students in his/her classes with these procedures. Instructions should be read aloud early in each semester.
A sounding of the gong or horn is the signal to vacate the building. All windows are to be closed, lights turned off and doors closed. Persons should not use building elevators during any emergency. After leaving the building, all groups must proceed to at least 50 yards from the nearest wall of the building and wait until there is an all-clear signal.

Large, bulky items will be delivered in the afternoon by the college driver to either the department or the individual's office. Mailboxes should be checked at least once daily. Outgoing mail should be left in the Mailroom prior to 2:00 p.m. each day. Staff members may not use these facilities for either the receipt or sending of personal mail. There is a U.S. Postal Box on the loading dock outside the Mailroom for personal mail. Stamps can be purchased in the Bookstore.
MOTOR VEHICLE USAGE PROCEDURES
The College has explicit written procedures to be followed when using a College motor vehicle. The procedures also cover reporting an accident, related costs of a trip, use of a credit card, traffic infractions, mechanical breakdowns, and driver's license requirements. A complete copy of the procedures is available by calling or visiting the Security Office between the hours of 8 am and 4 pm, business days. The phone number of the Security Office is 431-8070.
PARKING
Most of parking lot A and all of lot B have been reserved for staff members. Staff areas are indicated by red markings on the College signs. Lots D and E are open to students and staff persons. New faculty members and administrators should obtain parking permits as soon as possible from the Security Office located in the Student Service Center. Professional staff requiring medical permits should apply to the Security Office. The Security Office is open from 8:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. Staff members having more than one car should obtain an additional permit for each additional vehicle they may be using during the year. Temporary permits are available for additional vehicles which are to be used for very brief periods.
PHOTO-IDENTIFICATION
The College requires all full-time and part-time staff members to carry a current photo-identification card with them. Professional staff members must obtain a new SUNYCARD. This card is necessary to use the Library and other college services.
POSTING GRADES
Posting of student grades is illegal under the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (the Buckley Amendment). The Registrar's Office issues grades promptly; however, faculty may tell any individual student what grade he/she received if one chooses to do so. The grades may not under any conditions be posted.
PRINTING AND DUPLICATION WORK
All off-campus printing must be approved by the Director of Community Relations and Graphics if the work is to be paid for by the College.
Duplication work done in the mailroom is charged back to the department, program or office requesting the work. Departmental Head approval, if needed, is to be obtained before submittal of work requests. The following information must be provided on the Office Services Work Order:
1. Department, program or office to be charged
2. Account number to be charged
3. Submission date and due date
4. Number of originals and number of copies
5. Name of person requesting the work
RECYCLING
The campus has participated in a recycling program for paper, cardboard and glass for a number of years. This program has not only been good for the environment, but has also saved the College money in refuse removal.
Each office has been provided with a blue recycle container for this purpose. Larger bins are also available from the Housekeeping Department if required. All faculty and staff are requested to cooperate in this effort by placing non-shiny paper and envelopes without windows in the blue bins for pick up. Glass bottles may be deposited in the recycle centers found around Campus.
RESEARCH USING DCC STUDENTS
Research conducted by faculty, staff, or administration of the College as well as any outside researcher utilizing Dutchess Community College students directly as subjects should be first reviewed by the Director of Planning and Institutional Research and must be approved by the College Environment Committee.
RESERVING A ROOM
All College organizations or individuals wishing to reserve a room must complete a Facility Request Form for each event they wish to hold. The completed form should be submitted to the Office of Scheduling in Bowne Hall at least six (6) weekdays prior to the proposed activity. Facility Request Forms are available from the Office of Scheduling and from all department secretaries. The Facility Request Form is also available on a Microsoft WORD file from the Scheduling Office. (Complete the form and send it to Allison Miller via e-mail.)
SCHEDULE OF EVENTS
Each Monday when the College is in regular session, a weekly "Schedule of Events" is prepared by the Office of Scheduling and distributed through the Mailroom. The "Schedule of Events" constitutes the principal means of campus-wide communication and includes information, instructions, and reminders on activities, organization meetings, and many other aspects of the College's programs. Staff members may occasionally be requested to read to their classes certain information of special importance from the "Schedule of Events."
The "Schedule of Events" can be viewed on the computer kiosks and on the College web site. Some items from the "Schedule of Events" are also displayed over the College's closed circuit TV system at times when other programs are not scheduled.
Announcements to be included in each Monday's "Schedule of Events" must be received by the Office of Scheduling by 12:00 noon of the preceding Thursday. Special forms are available in the Student Activities Office in Dutchess Hall, or in the Office of Scheduling, Bowne Hall, for use by all staff and students with announcements for the "Schedule of Events." The form for submitting "Schedule of Events" announcements is also available on a Microsoft WORD file from the Scheduling Office. (Complete the form and send it to Susan Moore via e-mail.)
SECURITY & SAFETY
To provide round-the-clock protection against fire, theft, and vandalism, the College employs a private security service under the direction of the College's Director of Campus Safety. Whenever the College is closed and its maintenance staff is not working, uniformed security guards are on duty, making a continuous tour of the campus and all buildings.
Staff members wishing to enter buildings at times when the College is normally closed should check in at the Security Office located in the Student Service Center. Staff cooperation in providing proper identification is requested.
ESCORT SERVICE - Especially after dark. Call ext. 8070; give your name, location, and calling number.
PERSONAL PROPERTY - Mark and secure all property in your car (books, stereo, radar or other equipment, etc.). The safest place is a locked luggage compartment.
PREVENT CRIME - Secure your property before it is stolen or your vehicle damaged!
SHIPPING AND RECEIVING
All shipping and receiving activities, with the exception of the US Mail are handled by the Shipping, Receiving and Warehousing Department located in the North Annex. Michael Sheehan is the department supervisor. When ordering equipment and/or supplies, they are to be sent directly there by the shipper. No deliveries are to be made directly to the buildings.
The yellow receiving copies are forwarded by Purchasing to the Receiving department for account numbers beginning with “54XX and 58XX”. They will be delivered attached to the box in a packing envelope to the person who placed the order when the order comes in. If an order is incomplete, a copy will be delivered with the partial delivery.
To ship an item, it needs to be either dropped off at the North Annex or brought to the mail room. If the package is large, a work order can be sent () and it will be picked up. The following information is required: Your Name & Department, Name & Address of where it is to be shipped and any special handling required (i.e. Value over $100, 2 Day delivery, etc.).
SUBSCRIPTIONS
The College is enrolled with a subscription agency, EBSCO. Whenever possible, subscriptions will be ordered by the Purchasing Department through this agency. Those not available through EBSCO will be ordered directly from the publisher.
Subscription orders require prior approval by the Department Head and the supervising Dean if they are to be paid from the subscription expense account (#5207). Subscriptions that do not have prior approval will be charged to an individual's book allowance expense account (#5230).
