HOW TO ACCESS THE IVY TECH COMMUNITY COLLEGE LIBRARY: The Ivy Tech Library is available to students’ on- and off-campus, offering full text journals and books and other resources essential for course assignments. Go to http://www.ivytech.edu/library/ and choose the link for your campus. STUDENT RESOURCES: The Terre Haute campus has developed a listing of resources to assist you in a variety of areas. Topics include but are not limited to transportation, healthcare services and important college contact information. https://www.ivytech.edu/files/th-studentresources.pdf. ACADEMIC HONESTY STATEMENT: The College is committed to academic integrity in all its practices. The faculty value intellectual integrity and a high standard of academic conduct. Activities that violate academic integrity undermine the quality and diminish the value of educational achievement. 4

Cheating on papers, tests or other academic works is a violation of College rules. No student shall engage in behavior that, in the judgment of the instructor of the class, may be construed as cheating. This may include, but is not limited to, plagiarism or other forms of academic dishonesty such as the acquisition without permission of tests or other academic materials and/or distribution of these materials and other academic work. This includes students who aid and abet as well as those who attempt such behavior. The College, therefore, views any act of academic dishonesty as a serious offense requiring disciplinary measures, including failure for the exam or specific coursework, course failure, suspension, and expulsion from the College. In addition, an act of academic dishonesty may have unforeseen effects and lead to formal processes outside the College (Student Handbook). Students with concerns related to academic honesty or who feel that they are being “compromised” because of a peer’s actions are STRONGLY encouraged to seek the council of their instructor and nursing dean to ensure their interests are protected and a culture of honesty and the integrity of the program is maintained. ATTENDANCE: Students are expected to attend and participate regularly in class meetings, online learning activities and other activities assigned as a part of a course of instruction. Faculty are required to report student participation in compliance with institutional policies and federal financial aid guidelines. Faculty and staff shall be sensitive to students’ religious beliefs and observances, including an expectation that instructors make reasonable arrangements when a student must miss an exam or other academic exercise due to their religious observance. When notified in advance, and when possible, faculty will make allowances for students to make up missed work.

COPYRIGHT STATEMENT: Students shall adhere to the laws governing the use of copyrighted materials. They must insure that their activities comply with fair use and in no way infringe on the copyright or other proprietary rights of others and that the materials used and developed at Ivy Tech Community College contain nothing unlawful, unethical, or libelous and do not constitute any violation of any right of privacy. ADA STATEMENT: Ivy Tech Community College seeks to provide reasonable accommodations for qualified individuals with documented disabilities. If you need an accommodation because of a documented disability, please contact the Office of Disability Support Services (Jaime Frey, 812-298-2282). If you will require assistance during an emergency evacuation, notify your instructor immediately. Look for evacuation procedures posted in your classroom.

ADA ACCOMMODATIONS: Students having ADA accommodations must see the Disability Support representative, Jaime Frey each semester to renew them. She may be contacted at [email protected] Students are encouraged to seek services prior to the start of classes. Accommodations do not begin until the documentation has been presented to the instructor by the student. Approved accommodations are not retroactive. SAFETY AND VIOLENCE PREVENTION NOTICE: It is imperative that if you see or hear a threat that you report it immediately. Comments such as a statement to “get even,” a threat to kill or injure someone or to blow up the building are examples of threatening or intimidating language. The comment does not need to be made directly to the potential victim. Security should be notified first to address individuals who express violent words or behaviors. After Security is notified, the Vice-Chancellor of Student Affairs and/or Human Resources should be notified. To notify security: dial “2245” from school phone or call 812-298-2245 from cell phone. If security does not answer dial “0” from school phone or call 812-299-1121 from cell phone to reach the Welcome Desk. It is also important to note that in the event of any medical emergency, you should dial 911 immediately. This includes medical problems with students or employees. Dialing 911 is the quickest and most effective way to ensure that the person receives appropriate medical attention. Any student who believes he/she may need assistance with evacuation in the event of an emergency should notify Jaime Frey at 298-2282 or [email protected]

TITLE IX: Ivy Tech Community College is committed to providing all members of the College community with a learning and work environment free from sexual harassment and assault. Ivy Tech students have options for getting help if they have experienced sexual assault, relationship violence, sexual harassment or stalking. This information can be found at https://www.ivytech.edu/prevent-sexual-violence/index.html. If students write or speak about having survived sexual violence, including rape, sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, or stalking, federal law and Ivy Tech policies require that instructors share this information with the Campus Title IX Coordinator. The Campus Title IX Coordinator will contact students to let them know about accommodations and support services at the College and in the community as well as options for holding accountable the person who harmed them. When contacted, students are not required to speak with the Campus Title IX Coordinator. If students do not want the Title IX Coordinator notified, instead of disclosing this information to their instructor, students can speak confidentially with certain individuals 6

Writing & Research Tutoring – C108

Beyond the essential practices of frequent reading and writing that are built into college classes, Ivy Tech believes one-on-one discussion of writing and research with another individual is a necessary element of college education. In addition to working with instructors in classes, Ivy Tech students have the opportunity to discuss their writing in the K.E.Y Learning Center, where staff members who specialize in English skills will be able to offer excellent personalized instruction and dialogue regarding the development and refinement of writing and research assignments across the Ivy Tech curriculum. 

Additional Tutoring Across the Curriculum – C108

Tutoring is also available for other classes across the curriculum each semester. If you desire an individual appointment or have questions about additional services in the K.E.Y., please contact Darla Crist at [email protected] or at 812-298-2563 LIBRARY SERVICES – C-116 The campus location of the library (Room C116) has laptops, comfortable seating, tables, and access to charging stations for laptops, tablets, and phones; study rooms are also 8

Learning Center are students who were selected as a result of their excellent performance in Ivy Tech courses. Their primary role is to mentor other students in the academic skills necessary for college success. Please be aware that tutors are not available to merely provide the correct answer to a question or problem. Instead, tutors will listen to your questions and help you to arrive at answers on your own. At other times, tutors will ask you questions about your work in order to assess your approach to the material and to help you to better understand it. To get the most out of your tutoring sessions, here are a few tips:  





Start early; get to know the K.E.Y. tutoring staff at the beginning of the semester, so you have established yourself as part of a campus learning community. Come organized and prepared; bring your notes, questions, textbook(s), or online access codes in order to provide the tutor a full picture of the course and your concerns. Be prepared to log in using your student ID or C0# each time you visit the K.E.Y. Learning Center or use services in the Library, such as laptops. Plan ahead; arriving for tutoring at the last minute before homework or projects are due increases your stress level and does not allow you to actually learn from your tutoring session. In addition, if time is short and an assignment is complex, there is only so much a tutor can do to assist you. Overall, take responsibility for your work and for your success. Be proactive, not reactive when it comes to any difficulty you are experiencing in your classes. Don’t wait until midterm to seek help from your instructor or the tutors. We are all here to help you unlock your potential!
