ACADEMIC INFORMATION
Student Records
Student records are maintained in accordance with the Family Educational Rights
of Privacy Act (FERPA) of 1974 and the college’s “Student Records” policy found in the
SCC Student Handbook. Questions concerning student records and requests for record inspection should be directed to the Registrar. Current or former students may secure a transcript of their grades by completing a “Transcript Release Form” and submitting it to the Registrar’s Of ce along with a photo ID. In compliance with the Privacy Act, student transcripts will not be released to a third party without the signature of the student. Infor- mation deemed public or directory information may be released without student consent. Directory information is de ned in the college’s Student Records policy. SCC complies with the USA Patriot Act of 2001.
Students have the right to give or restrict access to their student records. To exercise this right, students should read the “Student Records” policy (found in the Student Hand- book) and submit a FERPA Release and Restriction Form to the Registrar’s Of ce.
WEATHER POLICY
The following procedure will be observed for adverse/inclement weather; however, regardless of college announcements, commuters should exercise personal judgment con- cerning highway road conditions, particularly those from other counties or remote areas. If the college is open, no announcement will be made.
Announcements concerning college operation will be made by 6:30 a.m. to all stu- dents and employees (via email, home phone and/or mobile phone) and on the local TV and radio stations listed below. However, if weather conditions worsen after the 6:30 a.m. announcement, an additional announcement closing the college for the day will be made no later than 8:30 a.m. Announcements concerning evening classes will be made no later than 3 p.m. The following types of announcements may be made:
1. Delayed Start: If the college is on delayed start, the campus will open at 10 a.m.
Students should report to the class/lab/clinic they would be in at 10 a.m. on a regular
day. All instructional time missed in a delayed start will be made up.
2. Classes Canceled: This indicates that the college remains open and staff should
report to work at 10 a.m. and use extreme caution.
3. College Closed: This means there are extremely hazardous conditions and no one
should report to work or class.
4. Early Dismissal: This will be announced when weather conditions dictate the early
dismissal of day or evening classes. This type of announcement will be made by telephone to a designee in each building on campus, who will communicate the early dismissal information to the occupants of the building.
