GENERAL EDUCATION PHILOSOPHY Barstow Community College provides a general education for its students. The district seeks to develop

the whole person where the individual is greater than the sum of his or her independent educational

experiences; a person who will understand the world within and the world without. Barstow Community

College’s general education philosophy serves to enhance creativity, reasoning, ethical behavior, and

human understanding, which are essential to the attainment of personal goals and effective participation

in a rapidly changing society.

The district’s general education philosophy ensures a coherent, interdisciplinary approach in the overall

undergraduate curriculum. Students are provided with the breadth and intellectual challenges which

stimulate discovery in a world full of different kinds of knowledge and social structures. Students are

given the opportunity to develop an integrated overview of the varied components of human knowledge.

The College’s general education philosophy calls for student exposure to natural science, technical

literacy, health and wellness, citizenship, community involvement, social and behavioral science, arts-

humanities, communications/language skills, analytic reasoning, and cultural/ethnic diversity. All of these

are basic and necessary to participate in and contribute to a balanced life in a democratic society.

GENERAL INFORMATION AND POLICIES

Board Policies The current copy of the Barstow Community College Board Policies is available on the BCC website at

www.barstow.edu/admin/boardpol.pdf

Academic Freedom Board Policy 4030: Academic Freedom

Reference: Title 5, Section 51023; Accreditation Standard 2.2

Academic Freedom is essential to the mission of higher education, which is to allow and promote free

inquiry into the environment of human endeavor. The faculty and administration of Barstow Community

College jointly accept the responsibility for maintaining an atmosphere in which scholars may freely teach,

conduct research, publish, and engage in other scholarly activities. This responsibility includes maintaining

the freedom for the examination of controversial issues throughout the College, including classroom

discussion when such issues are germane to the subject matter of the course. The College does not

attempt to control the personal opinion, nor the public expression of that opinion, of any member of the

faculty or staff of the institution. Indeed, the faculty and administration of Barstow Community College

feel a responsibility to protect the right of each employee to express his or her personal opinion, but in

doing so employees have an obligation to avoid any action which purports to commit the institution to a

position on any issue without prior approval.

Nondiscrimination Policy Board Policy 3410: Nondiscrimination

Reference: Education Code Sections 66250, et seq.; 72010, et seq.; 87100 et seq.; Title 5, Sections 53000, et

seq.; and 59380 et seq.; Penal Code Section 422.55; Government Code 12926.1, 12940, et seq.

The District is committed to equal opportunity in educational programs, employment, and access to

institutional programs and activities.

The District, and each individual who represents the District, shall provide access to its services, classes,

and programs without regard to national origin, religion, age, gender, gender identity, gender expression,

race, color, medical condition, genetic information, ancestry, sexual orientation, marital status, physical or

http://www.barstow.edu/admin/boardpol.pdf

6

mental disability, or because he or she is perceived to have one or more of the foregoing characteristics,

or based on association with a person or group with one or more of these actual or perceived

characteristics.

The President, or designee, shall establish administrative procedures that ensure all members of the

college community can present complaints regarding alleged violations of this policy and have their

complaints heard in accordance with the Title 5 regulations and those of other agencies that administer

state and federal laws regarding nondiscrimination.

No District funds shall ever be used for membership, or for any participation involving financial payment

or contribution on behalf of the District or any individual employed by or associated with it, to any private

organization whose membership practices are discriminatory on the basis of national origin, religion, age,

gender, gender identity, gender expression, race, color, medical condition, genetic information, ancestry,

sexual orientation, marital status, physical or mental disability, or because he or she is perceived to have

one or more of the foregoing characteristics, or because of his or her association with a person or group

with one or more of these actual or perceived characteristics.

Unlawful Harassment Board Policy 3430: Prohibition of Harassment

Reference: Education Code Sections 212.5; 44100; 66252; 66281.5; Government Code 12950.1; Title VII

of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C.A. § 2000e.

All forms of harassment are contrary to basic standards of conduct between individuals and are

prohibited by state and federal law, as well as this policy, and will not be tolerated. The District is

committed to providing an academic and work environment that respects the dignity of individuals and

groups. The District shall be free of sexual harassment and all forms of sexual intimidation and

exploitation including acts of sexual violence. It shall also be free of other unlawful harassment, including

that which is based on any of the following statuses: race, religious creed, color, national origin, ancestry,

physical disability, mental disability, medical condition, genetic information, marital status, sex, gender,

gender identity, gender expression, age, or sexual orientation of any person, or because he or she is

perceived to have one or more of the foregoing characteristics.

The District seeks to foster an environment in which all employees and students feel free to report

incidents of harassment without fear of retaliation or reprisal. Therefore, the District also strictly

prohibits retaliation against any individual for filing a complaint of harassment or for participating in a

harassment investigation. Such conduct is illegal and constitutes a violation of this policy. All allegations of

retaliation will be swiftly and thoroughly investigated. If the District determines that retaliation has

occurred, it will take all reasonable steps within its power to stop such conduct. Individuals who engage in

retaliatory conduct are subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination or expulsion.

Any student or employee who believes that he or she has been harassed or retaliated against in violation

of this policy should immediately report such incidents by following the procedures described in AP 3435.

Supervisors are mandated to report all incidents of harassment and retaliation that come to their

attention.

This policy applies to all aspects of the academic environment, including but not limited to classroom

conditions, grades, academic standing, employment opportunities, scholarships, recommendations,

disciplinary actions, and participation in any community college activity. In addition, this policy applies to

all terms and conditions of employment, including but not limited to hiring, placement, promotion,

disciplinary action, layoff, recall, transfer, leave of absence, training opportunities and compensation.

To this end the District President shall ensure that the institution undertakes education and training

activities to counter discrimination and to prevent, minimize and/or eliminate any hostile environment

that impairs access to equal education opportunity or impacts the terms and conditions of employment.


7

The District President shall establish procedures that define harassment on campus. The District President

shall further establish procedures for employees, students, and other members of the campus community

that provide for the investigation and resolution of complaints regarding harassment and discrimination,

and procedures for students to resolve complaints of harassment and discrimination. All participants are

protected from retaliatory acts by the District, its employees, students, and agents.

This policy and related written procedures shall be widely published and publicized to administrators,

faculty, staff, and students, particularly when they are new to the institution. They shall be available for

students and employees in all administrative offices.

Employees who violate the policy and procedures may be subject to disciplinary action up to and

including termination. Students who violate this policy and related procedures may be subject to

disciplinary measures up to and including expulsion.

Rules of Conduct Academic Employee Responsibilities

1. All academic employees shall keep and submit accurate records on registration, attendance, class

census sheets, final grade sheets, and other materials on or before specified deadlines.

2. All academic employees shall meet and conduct all classes in accordance with the established

course of study and shall use the approved text.

3. No academic employee shall release any information or records designated by law or the District

as confidential to any person or organization except as provided in District Policy governing the

release of confidential information and records.

4. All academic employees shall comply with all policies and procedures of the District.

5. All academic employees are required to report all industrial accidents and accidents involving

students to their supervisor or designee, or other appropriate district administrator within 24 hours

of occurrence.

6. All academic employees must give attention to bulletins, e-mails, voicemail, and memoranda

from administrative offices.

Misconduct 1. No academic employee shall possess, use, or be under the influence of any illegal substance or

alcoholic beverage while on duty or on school premises.

2. Academic employees shall not knowingly falsify any work records or employment forms.

3. No academic employee shall use abusive language directed toward students or employees of the

District. This shall include any defamatory, slanderous, racial, sexist, or ethnic remarks.

Negative Comments About the Institution, Your Colleagues, or Students We ask you to think twice before you speak disparagingly about the college, about its board or

administration, or about certain teachers or students. The usual result is unproductive cynicism among

students, the very people we want to keep positive and productive.

Insubordination Academic employees shall follow appropriate orders and directives given by their supervisor.

Smoking Regulations Smoking is only allowed 20 feet from buildings.


8

Violation Violation of any of the above rules of conduct may be grounds for disciplinary action subject to the

provisions of legal codes and the current Collective Bargaining Agreement.

Occupational Safety and Heath Program Safety is the responsibility of everyone, and the District encourages its employees to actively participate

in the safety program. Employees may provide reports of observed or perceived safety hazards and may

provide suggestions for the improvement of the safety environment without fear of reprisal. The District

requires that all injuries be reported to the Safety Officer so the event may be investigated to prevent its

recurrence.

Liability of Instructors Naturally, as you teach or supervise class activities, we expect you to practice common sense so that

nobody gets hurt or is put in danger. If you are negligent and a student has an accident as a result, you

could be held liable.

One of the clearest grounds for declaring a teacher negligent, and thus legally liable, is when the

instructor is away from the class or activity site without good reason and without prior administrative

approval at the time of the accident. The District does carry insurance to protect you against liability

claims arising from the performance of your contractual assignment, at school or away. Please familiarize

yourself with safety and emergency procedures mentioned throughout this handbook. Excluded are claims

involving personal automobiles used for off-campus school activities such as field trips.

Getting Help With Publicity The Public Information Office can help you promote special events, new programs, and activities that are

open to the public. Contact the Public Information Office at ext. 7350 for help and advice with

promotion.

Guidelines for Public Communication The Public Information Office manages the public image of Barstow Community College District, serves

as the voice of the District, produces “official” communication about the District, and is responsible for

District-wide special events. The following communication guidelines have been developed to assist

Barstow Community College employees with questions regarding communication with the public and the

media.

All official communication with the public is the responsibility of the Public Information Officer (PIO).

Advertising, marketing, media relations, legislative advocacy, fundraising, and planning for

District-wide events are the responsibility of the PIO.

The PIO is in a unique position to represent the College as a whole and will speak on behalf of

Barstow Community College.

For this reason, you will need authorization from the Public Information Office before you:

speak with a reporter about Barstow Community College matters;

publish an article in the newspaper; or

make a statement to the media that identifies you as an employee of Barstow Community

College.

Please refer all reporters to the PIO.

The PIO is responsible for Barstow Community College’s public image and will promote the

college. Contact the PIO if you would like assistance with marketing, media relations, and/or

advertising.


9

From time-to-time, we may encounter situations such as the death of an employee or an

announced retirement that require a District response like an event or communiqué for the

employee’s family. These activities are the responsibility of the PIO.

District-wide e-mail distribution (i.e. everyone list) must be limited to official District business.

District-wide events will be planned by the PIO.

When the PIO can’t be reached, contact the President’s Office for guidance at ext. 7214.

Coordination of public communication through the Public Information Office serves several purposes:

It ensures that the District’s public announcements are coordinated, organized, and thematically

consistent.

It prevents individuals from implicitly or explicitly representing themselves as speaking for the

organization as a whole.

It prevents media outlets from being inundated with multiple messages and requests for publicity

from one source – Barstow Community College.

Promotes strong relationships with the media.

Communications Professional Organization Communications Material from professional organizations received by the College is given to the campus representative of

that organization or to the Division Chairperson.

Written Communications 1. Bulletins or Reminders: Should be read carefully for information vital to the welfare of the faculty

members. All Barstow Community College faculty members will be assigned an official Barstow.edu

email address. All official communications from the College will be sent to this address, including

reminders from Admissions and Records regarding important deadlines. In addition, students will

likely contact you at this email address. Therefore, it is of the utmost importance that all faculty

members login to their Barstow.edu accounts on a regular basis. Instructions for logging in can be

found online at www.barstow.edu/faculty.

2. Official College Publications: The Instruction Office prepares and distributes the catalog online

only. It includes the academic calendar, a description of courses, occupational curricula, College

organization and other information concerning all of the College programs, students and faculty. The

Instruction Office also prepares the combined day and evening schedule of classes. These

publications list course descriptions, class hours, room assignments, units, and names of the

instructors. Class schedules also contain the academic calendar, and registration information.

Academic staff members are responsible for being aware of the content of all official College

publications.

Faculty Communications 1. Faculty Bulletin Board: Information of interest to faculty is posted in the Administration Building

on the large bulletin board in the mailroom. Creating fliers for others to read should be considered

carefully. Please consider whether fliers and/or posters are the best way to communicate and make

sure to proofread your work carefully.

2. Faculty Meetings: Meetings of the College academic staff are called from time to time by the

District President and/or the Vice President of Academic Affairs. The Barstow Community College

Academic Senate meetings and Barstow Community College Faculty Association meetings are called

by their presidents.


10

We value your insight and expertise and hope both can be shared with other teachers in your division. We

also know you would like to meet your colleagues and possibly compare strategies, philosophies, and

perceptions. All Division and Best Practice meetings are the best vehicle for achieving valuable, two-way

professional interaction. These meetings are mandatory and instructors are not paid to attend these

meetings.

Faculty Organizations 1. The Barstow Community College Faculty Association (BCFA) is open to all non-administrative

academic personnel upon payment of dues. Meetings are held September through May. For more

information, contact Lewis Goldstein, BCFA President, at ext. 7246.

2. Election to the Barstow Community College Academic Senate is open to all non-administrative

full-time academic personnel. The Senate represents both full-time and part-time faculty on academic

and professional matters. Elected senators representing divisions and the faculty-at-large select

officers and conduct the business of the Senate at meetings September through May. The Senate is a

participatory governance body as mandated by Ed Code and Title V requirements for collegial

consultation. For more information, contact the Academic Senate President, Sally Van Den Berg, at

ext.7512.

3. The California Teachers Association Local Chapter is open to all full-time academic personnel

upon payment of dues. Membership is required of all Barstow Community College Faculty

Association members.

4. The Faculty Association of California Community Local Chapter is open to all full-time faculty

members upon payment of dues. Administrators may become associate, non-voting members for a

lesser fee.

Collective Bargaining The Board of Trustees of Barstow Community College has recognized the Barstow Community College

Faculty Association, an affiliate of CTA/NEA, as a recognized bargaining agent under the provision of

the Rodda Act. A copy of the collective bargaining agreement (contract) may be obtained from the

Human Resource Development Office and on the BCC website. In the contract is the current pay scale for

both full-time and adjunct faculty.

Telephones A phone in the Instruction Office is available for faculty use in conducting the business of the college.

Observance of the following procedures will result in improved telephone service for all faculty members:

1. Inter-Office Calls: Dial extension number as listed on the inter-office telephone directory.

2. Out-going Calls: Local numbers may be dialed by first dialing “9” followed by the number. Faculty

members are urged to avoid personal, long distance, or extended-area calls.

3. Long Distance Calls: You will need a long distance access code in order to make long distance calls

or fax to long distance numbers. Contact Shawna Robbins at ext. 7227 to obtain your long distance

access code.

4. Voice Mail: It is important that you check your voice mail frequently and delete your messages on a

regular basis to avoid overloading the system. If your voicemail box becomes full, future callers will

be unable to leave you a message. You can listen to your messages by pressing the message button

and entering your password (on campus) or by calling 252-2411, press 8, your ID (extension), and

then your PIN Code.

available on the next work day from the Business Office. Payroll mails all checks for all instructors that

teach only online classes. All other instructors may select to have their checks mailed if they provide a

self-addressed stamped envelope, have their checks Electronic Fund Transfer to their bank, or they may

pick them up in the Business Office. For more information contact Payroll at ext. 7316.

Leaves

Full-Time Faculty Leave Sick, industrial accident, personal necessity, maternity, paternity, bereavement, military, professional

growth, extended, and uncompensated leaves are discussed in detail in Article XI of the BCFA Contract.

Adjunct Faculty Sick Leave As you teach for Barstow Community College, you will earn an hour of sick leave per academic unit of credit

taught per semester or summer session. Noncredit classes will be prorated on an equivalent hourly basis.

Sick leave is cumulative. If you teach a three unit class for two semesters without being sick, you will

have accumulated six hours of sick leave, if three semesters, then nine hours, etc.

Sick leave pay is paid only for your illness; it does not apply to any other reasons such as a family

emergency or personal necessity leave.

XIV of the BCFA Contract.

Adjunct Faculty When an instructor works 60 hours in any one pay period, it is mandated by the state that he/she become a

member of California Teacher’s Retirement System (STRS). These 60 hours are a total of hours worked

at all districts. A check is made at the County Retirement Office, and STRS payment will be withheld for

the prior period. Once a member, contributions will continue as long as the instructor teaches, regardless

of the number of hours taught. Adjunct instructors will no longer be able to elect out of membership and

THE INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAM

Academic Standards The Instruction Office is responsible for the same high level and content of classroom instruction for day,

evening, and summer classes at both on campus, off campus, and online classes. Course outlines and

syllabi are on file in the Instruction Office.

It is the professional responsibility of the individual instructor with the assistance of the Division Dean to

apprize him or herself of the stipulated content of the course and be aware of the standards of instruction,

course outline of record, course objectives and the Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs).

Faculty Work Week Full-time Full-time instructors are employed for a basic work week averaging 40 hours a week, to comprise lecture

hours or equivalent, office hours, unscheduled teaching-related hours, and other professional duties hours.

Each full-time instructor shall be present on campus for 30 hours a week including a minimum of two

hours per day on the days that they teach.

Each full-time instructor shall maintain a schedule of at least five office hours per week for every school

week, or no fewer than four days per week as office time for consulting with and assisting students. Each

scheduled period of office time shall be no less than 30 minutes. Night office hours (after 5:00 pm) shall

be scheduled in proportion to night classes. During the period of term examinations each full-time

instructor shall meet his/her assigned examination schedule and at least one office hour on each day of

their exam schedule.-(Article VII of C.B. Agreement)

Each full-time instructor shall prepare and submit a schedule of office hours and classroom/lab hours to

the Vice President of Academic Affairs at the beginning of each term. This schedule will be posted on the

instructor’s office door. (Article VII of the C.B. Agreement)

Instructors of online classes shall hold one office hour per course per week “online” and the instructor

shall be immediately available to students through online means during that hour. This office hour shall

be announced to the students as part of the course materials and may be conducted from whatever

location he/she chooses.

Adjunct Although adjunct faculty are not required to hold formal office hours, they are urged to arrive on campus

prior to the start of class, and remain for a period after class to address student concerns and to consult

with them regarding the education.

Evaluation of Instructors

Full-time Written evaluation and assessment of performance shall take place as prescribed by Article XII of the

collective bargaining agreement. Elements include peer and administrative classroom visits, a self-

evaluation, and goal-setting.

Adjunct Temporary/hourly faculty will be evaluated during their first semester of employment, and at least once

during every four semesters thereafter.


18

Course Content Barstow Community College provides courses for students seeking a liberal and/or scientific education, a

vocationally oriented program, or remediation in fundamental learning skills needed to benefit from a

college or vocational program.

In occupational courses, the content is planned to develop occupational competency. Grading standards

are determined by how well students master the competencies.

Remedial courses are designed to overcome weaknesses in the preparation of students for college work.

Students vary widely in this area, and grades can measure the degree of individual improvement and

mastery of content.

Online Courses Instructors of online classes have the same contractual obligations as other instructors in terms of office

hours, time on campus, etc. Course materials are held to a high standard and must be prepared in a timely

fashion and posted for student use well in advance of student due dates. Instructors shall interact with

students no less than twice a week. Regular and effective communication is monitored by the Department

of Education, the ACCJC, the Chancellor’s Office, College administration and faculty peers. Online

instructors should develop communication and interaction techniques as they would in a face-to-face

classroom. Engaging with online students is critical to teaching and learning. Prompt and appropriate

interaction with students shall form a part of the instructor’s evaluation. Instructors are required to publish

and maintain all class materials online including office hours.

The intellectual property rights and the right to claim the copyright for online courses is based on factors

under which the course was created. See section 7.16.9 of the C.B. Agreement.

Course Syllabus and Course Outline Course outlines and course syllabi are made available to students to provide them with information about

courses at Barstow Community College. The course outline of record is mandated by state law and is of a

generic nature. The syllabus is distributed to students during the first week of class by the instructor and

gives specific details about the course. A master file containing all outlines and syllabi is maintained by

the Instruction Office and is available to students.

Your course syllabi must be UPDATED each semester and a copy

distributed to your students by the end of the first week of class. You

must also provide the instruction office with a copy of your syllabi.

Respecting the Course Outline All courses have identities, boundaries, and expectations. Those for the course you are teaching are

spelled out in the official course outline, which the Vice President of Academic Affairs will give you

when you are hired. Read the course outline carefully and plan to use it as a basis for what, and perhaps

even how, you will teach. In short, respect the course outline because it lays out what you are obliged to

teach. Your colleagues wrote the course outline with an eye to how your course fits in with related

courses and with various degree and major programs. There is a comprehensive process to change or

update a course through the Curriculum Committee.


19

Preparing a Syllabus All Barstow Community College instructors, full-time and adjunct, are required to prepare an instruction

plan for each class and to distribute it at the beginning of each semester. Generally, the more detailed and

specific your syllabus, the better you serve your students

Instructional plans are good for both students and teachers. They give students a sense of the territory

ahead and thereby ease anxiety about the unknown. They also oblige teachers to think through their

courses before beginning the instructional delivery process.

The syllabus should include the following:

1. When the class meets – dates, times: when it doesn’t meet because of holidays; when the final

will be given.

2. Lecture, lab, units, prerequisites

3. Course description

4. Content of the course

5. Expected Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs), which must be consistent with the course outline.

6. Texts and other required materials

7. Critical thinking

8. Methods of instruction

Assignments

Tests

Essays

Research papers

Midterm/Final exam

9. Grading procedure

10. Topical outline (by date or week)

11. Policies of the instructor – pertaining to attendance, reasons for dropping/reinstating students, late

papers, paper revisions, extra credit, makeup exams. Some of these matters are governed by

school policy, which you must observe.

12. Disability Disclaimer

13. Syllabus disclaimer

14. Academic Honesty policy

15. Contact information

16. Office hours (if a full-time faculty)

17. How to determine grade progress or status during the class

NOTE: Courts have ruled that syllabi (materials prepared by teachers) should be regarded as having the

force of legal contracts. You should follow through with what your syllabus states. Unless, of course, an

emergency requires changes or everyone agrees to the changes and the students are notified in writing.

Being clear and thorough with students will help mitigate any future misunderstandings regarding your

classroom policies.


20

Numbering of Courses Courses designated 1 through 49 are designated baccalaureate level courses. These courses are designed

to transfer to other colleges or universities and meet BCC graduation requirements. Courses designated 50

through 99 meet associate degree and certificate program requirements and MAY transfer based upon

institutional evaluation. Courses labeled 100 through 149 MAY meet associate degree requirements and

are generally non-transferable since they emphasize remediation and/or specific community needs. For

other course designation, please refer to the College catalogue.

Course Content Barstow Community College provides courses of study in liberal arts and sciences, vocationally oriented

courses, and courses for the remediation of basic skills so that students can eventually succeed in college

level courses. As discussed under “Respecting the Course Outline” and “Numbering of Courses”, it is

important to remember where a course falls in the taxonomy of the curriculum and what its purpose is.

Independent Study Upon petition a student may be allowed to take a course as independent study if the following criteria are

met:

Course is not offered during the current term.

Course is needed for graduation requirements for student’s program of study.

Student is within one semester of completing graduation requirements.

Students should be directed to the Counseling Department to begin the petition process. It is the student’s

responsibility to secure an instructor and submit the completed application to the Academic Affairs Office

for approval.

Course Transferability Many courses numbered 1through 99 may be acceptable for transfer to the California State University and

the University of California. Courses that are transferable to these universities will have CSU and/or UC

printed in the catalog description. If CSU or UC is followed by an asterisk (*), there may be a limitation

on which campus will accept these courses or the credit allowed. Please check with a counselor for

specific details.

The transfer of courses to other institutions can be a complicated and confusing process for students. It is

advisable that faculty refer students to the Career and Transfer Center for the most current information

available.

Open Course Policy The policy of Barstow Community College District is that, unless specifically exempted by statute or

regulation, every course, course section, or class, reported for state aid, whenever offered and maintained

by the district, shall be fully open to enrollment and participation by any person who has been admitted to

the College and who meets such prerequisites as may be established pursuant to regulations contained in

Article 2.5 (commencing with Section 55200) of Subchapter 1 of Chapter 6 Title V of the California Code

of Regulations.

If you believe a student is underprepared for your class, talk candidly with him or her about the prospect

for success and refer them to the counselor. You have to be careful. You can’t just send a student away

because he/she doesn’t read, write, or otherwise perform up to your personal standards. If the student has

technically qualified for your course, and assuming his or her deportment is okay, you must keep him/her,

no matter how unpromising he/she seems.


21

Curriculum Development The improvement and evolution of the curriculum should be the concern of all College staff. Ideas for the

improvement of a course, new course development, and new instructional techniques are expected to

come forward after careful consideration by the faculty. Curriculum development involves discussion at

the departmental level, the presentation of a written proposal to the Instruction Office and the Curriculum

Committee, Administrative approval, adoption by the Board of Trustees, and authorization by the Office

of the Chancellor of the California Community Colleges.

Textbook Selection 1. Textbook selections are finalized by the instructor after consultation with department peers.

Continuity among instructors regarding textbooks for a given subject is encouraged. Part time

instructors must use the same textbook the full time instructor is using for the course.

2. It is the instructor’s responsibility to secure a desk copy of a text. The Instruction Office will assist

instructors in securing a text in emergency situations.

3. Instructors should notify the bookstore manager of their choice of textbook prior to May 1 for fall

semester and November 1 for spring semester.

4. Textbook adoptions should be used for at least two years. Instructors should give one month written

notice to the Bookstore prior to changing texts. Repeated changes in textbooks and late notification of

changes cause higher cost to students which has been the focus of recent legislative scrutiny.

Grading Policy 1. The grading policy in your syllabus must contain clear information on how students will be evaluated

and issued a grade. A grading policy which takes in a variety of factors for determining a student’s

grade is strongly recommended. This may include exams, homework, participation and special

projects. The grading policy should be objective and fair for the students. Refer to the course outline

of record for the approved grading policy guidelines.

2. A written record of individual performance shall be maintained for each student in each class.

Instructors shall be able to provide records of any student’s scholastic performance upon request by

authorized personnel.

3. It is recommended that faculty hold on to their grade records for three years in case questions arise.

Grading System Evaluation of student achievement relates to the attainment of specific course objectives. At the beginning

of the course and in the syllabus, the instructor will explain the course objectives and the basis for

determination of the grade.

The following symbols are used:

A 4 grade points per unit

B 3 grade points per unit

C 2 grade points per unit

D 1 grade point per unit

F/FW 0 grade points per unit

MW Military Withdrawal (Units not counted in GPA)

IP In Progress

P Pass (At least satisfactory, units not counted in GPA)

NP No Pass (Less than satisfactory, units not counted in GPA)

UG Un-graded

RD Report Delayed


22

Unofficial Withdrawal The FW grade is given to students who have registered for a class but have not attended or officially

dropped the class or to a student who has ceased participating in a class after the last day to officially

withdraw from the course without having achieved a final passing grade and the student did not officially

withdraw from the class. Instructors must submit the last known date of attendance for the student when

submitting final grades. This symbol is used to calculate return of Title IV funds.

Military Withdrawal A military withdrawal occurs when a student who is a member of an active or reserve United States

military service receives orders compelling a withdrawal from courses. The student must submit a

Request for Late Withdrawal to Admissions and Records. Upon verification of orders, an MW may be

assigned.

Incomplete Grade An incomplete is a temporary grade which may be given at the instructor’s discretion to a student in the

event that extraordinary circumstances beyond the control of the student prevent completion of course

requirements by the end of the academic term.

An incomplete may only be issued if the following criteria/circumstances are met:

The student’s work submitted is at a “C” or better level when the request for an incomplete is

made.

Attendance has been satisfactory through at least 60% of the term.

Unforeseeable emergency and justifiable reasons which prevent completion of required work by

the due date has occurred; supporting documents must be presented by the student for

verification.

Required work may reasonably be completed within the time frame set by the instructor.

The incomplete is not given as a substitute for a failing grade.

The incomplete is not solely based on a student’s failure to complete work or as a means of

raising his or her grade by doing additional work after the grade report time.

The student initiates the request for an incomplete before the end of the academic term.

The instructor and student complete the Petition for Incomplete Grade form by the end of the

academic term.

For further information regarding policies and procedures governing incomplete grades, please see

Petition for Incomplete Grade online at www.barstow.edu/faculty.

In Progress The IP symbol shall be used to denote that the class extends beyond the normal end of an academic term.

It indicates that work is “in progress” and that assignment of an evaluative grade must await its

completion. The appropriate evaluative grade and unit credit shall be assigned and appear on the student’s

record for the term in which the course is completed. The IP shall not be used in calculating grade point

averages. If a student enrolled in an “open-entry/open-exit” course is assigned an IP at the end of a term

and does not re-enroll in that course for the subsequent term, the appropriate faculty will assign a letter

grade to be recorded on the student’s permanent record for the course. This alternate grade shall be

entered on the Report of IP Grade to be submitted with the grade sheet for each grade of IP assigned by

the instructor. Thus the IP grade remains on the permanent record only if the student re-enrolls in the

course for the next succeeding term after being assigned the IP.

For Financial Aid and EOPS purposes, an IP or INC grade will not meet the satisfactory progress criteria.


23

Report Delayed The RD grade is used only by Admissions and Records or Management Information Systems when grade

records are not available for recording.

Other Grades During the first three weeks of a full semester class, a student who drops or is dropped by an instructor for

nonattendance will have no record made of his/her enrollment in a class. The W grade is assigned when a

class is dropped between the beginning of the 4th week and the end of the 14th week of the semester or

20% of the meeting dates. Certain courses are designated to be graded on a Pass/No Pass basis. Thus, the

units are not counted in the grade point average. A student may elect before the beginning of the 4th week

of the semester to be graded on a (P/NP) basis.

Course Prerequisites Prerequisite means a condition of enrollment that a student is required to meet in order to demonstrate

current readiness for enrollment in a course or education program (Title 5 section 55220(a) and District

Board Policy 4260). Prerequisites may include courses as well as assessment test scores. Prerequisites are

noted in the Schedule of Classes, the College Catalog, and the Course Outline.

Students who have not satisfactorily completed a prerequisite for a course will be denied

admission to that course. A grade of “C” or better is defined as satisfactory completion.

Students who have completed prerequisite courses at other institutions may request clearance into

the course by completing the Prerequisite Validation Registration form, found online at

www.barstow.edu/forms.

Students may challenge a Prerequisite/Co-requisite. Students interested in this process should be

advised to see a counselor.

Scheduled Class Hours It is the responsibility of the instructor to ensure that the class meets according to the catalog description

and the schedule of classes.

Showing Up On Time and Keeping Students to the End You must meet your class when the College says you should, and you must keep students to the end of

the announced period. This means every time. There are no good reasons for being late, for getting started

late, or for letting students go early. If you teach a night class with an extended time period and plan an

exam, also plan a few more things to do in addition to the exam. Don’t just give the exam and say

students can leave when they finish. In short, we hope you use your time wisely and give all students their

money’s worth.

Changing your start and end time of your class is not allowed. In extreme cases the Vice President of

Academic Affairs will, in certain cases, consider your request.

Class Breaks An academic “hour” is 50 minutes in length. If a class is scheduled for two or more hours, a 10 minute

“break” is usually built into the scheduled class meeting times. Example: a class meeting 2 hours per day

from 8:00am -9:50am may take one 10 minute break. A class meeting for 3 hours per day may take two

10 minute breaks. No breaks are included in classes that meet less than two hours.


24

Class Attendance by Students When a student enrolls in a class, the college assumes that he or she will attend that class regularly. The

student is responsible for dropping classes for which he/she has registered but does not plan to attend.

Instructors have the responsibility to designate inactive students on the course roster no later than the

census day for the course. It is the student’s responsibility, not the instructor’s, to actually drop the course

and to verify the drop has been processed. Students must drop classes by the deadlines established by the

Admissions and Records Office and published in the Schedule of Classes.

All Instructors must take roll every day, every session. (Track-It stations located in instructional areas

are not a replacement for actual attendance procedures that should be completed by faculty). You must

also record absences on your class attendance sheet. The college is legally required to maintain accurate

attendance records because its funding is based on the number of students enrolled in and attending

classes. Furthermore, the college believes you need to stay in touch with your students, which means, in

part, knowing when they come and when they don’t. Where practical, you should consult with students

with poor attendance. Showing interest in their absences may inspire students to improve their attendance.

Attendance and Grading Courts have ruled that you can’t use attendance as a basis for grading unless you provide to students, in

writing, precisely how attendance will affect the grade. Inform students of the importance of participation

in class, group discussions and other aspects of engaging with you and other students.

Legally you cannot give students an “F” on exams if they were ill or had personal emergencies at the time

you gave the exams. You have to provide opportunities to make up tests or use a grading procedure which

allows for the missed test.

Record of Student Performance A written record of individual performance shall be maintained for each student in each class. Instructors shall

be able to provide record of any student’s scholastic performance upon request by authorized personnel.

Class rosters are online and you will be instructed on how to access them. You will build your own

“grade book” either using a traditional handwritten method or by creating an electronic record using

Excel or other software. Either way, make sure other people can read it and follow it in the event you no

longer teach for us or can’t be located. Label all assignments and make sure your attendance accounting is

understandable and accurately dated. In the event that you move from the area, please turn in your class

records to the Instruction Office.

Student Right to Know The law says that students have the right to examine their educational records, including their grade on

the grade sheet for your class. Further, students have the right to challenge the accuracy of transcripts and

grade sheets. The District believes that students should be informed of this right; therefore, we suggest

that you include it in your syllabus and discuss the matter the first day of class.

Student Privacy Here are some aspects of student privacy you should know about:

1. Never leave your class record book open in the classroom giving the students the opportunity to see

other students’ grades.

2. If it is your practice to critique student work with the class as a whole, do it anonymously to avoid

embarrassment and to avoid violating the privacy of students.

3. If you include students’ written work in your syllabus remove the names of the students from the work.

4. If you post grades, do not post student names or social security numbers.


25

Entering Classes After Beginning the Semester

Permission to enter a class on or after the first day must be secured from the instructor and approved by

the Vice President of Student Affairs. Enrollments after the first census will not be permitted.

This and other College policies must be enforced and are in place for a variety of valid reasons. It is

unprofessional to blame the registrar, administration or other individuals for the situation in which

students find themselves. It is best to explain that the “College” must abide by certain policies as a matter

of fairness, fiscal responsibility, and rules handed down by the Chancellor’s Office.

Adds/Drops Students who have already enrolled for the term may add a class by using an “Add Code” that is issued by

the instructor. Instructions on this process will be shared during orientation. The instructor may drop a

student for non-attendance. This process is also electronic.

Auditing Classes Auditors must be eligible for admission to college as regularly enrolled students.

1. Auditors will be allowed to register only after the 2nd class meeting. Credit students have class

priority, which may result in the audit student being bumped out of class.

2. Auditors may NOT change their status to regular student (or reverse).

3. Once the auditor fee is paid, it will not be refunded.

4. No transcript of record will be maintained.

Field Trips Field trips are an important part of the instructional program. Any activities conducted in the name of the

College other than on campus or duly-appointed locations, are subject to regulations which exist for the

protection of the students and the instructor. Field trips will be identified in the course outline. Students

will be made aware of any related fees and the weight of the activity of the course grade within the first

week of class. Field trips should be scheduled at least one month in advance. Requests for field trip

approval and transportation must be submitted by the instructor to the Instruction Office. Students must

complete the Field Trip Waiver and Personal Automobile Use Permission forms prior to the field trip.

Only enrolled students, employees, and volunteer drivers are covered by District insurance during off-

campus activities.

Cancelled Classes 1. Classes may be canceled due to insufficient enrollment. Any class enrolling fewer than the stated

schedule minimum is subject to cancellation. Exceptions are made in the case of certain specialized

and advanced classes.

2. In the event that a class has already met, then been canceled, the instructor may be compensated for

those hours already worked.


26

Credit by Examination A student may petition for credit by examination in courses currently listed in the college catalog for

which the student has not previously earned a grade. A maximum of 25 units may be applied toward

graduation through this process. No more than 15 units per semester will be authorized. A fee equivalent

to the current per unit charge will be assessed for each examination administered Students must meet with

a counselor to initiate the credit by exam process, and complete the petition form. The examination is to

be prepared by a faculty member in the discipline of the course being challenged and administered to the

student by this instructor. The examination is graded by the faculty member who prepares it and the

results of the examination are reported to Admissions and Records for processing.

Changing Classrooms Do not move your class from your assigned room without authorization from the Instruction Office. A

vacant classroom does not always indicate that the room is unassigned.

No equipment or chairs are to be moved from one classroom to another. Notify the Instruction Office if

there is a need for any additional equipment. All equipment needs are to be addressed through the

Instruction Office.

Commencement Formal commencement exercises will be held in May. All full-time academic staff is required to be

present and part-time academic staff are invited and encouraged to participate. Academic regalia is

supplied to full-time faculty and must be returned upon termination of employment.

Off-Campus Instruction Off-Campus Programs: The College offers a number of programs at military bases and other facilities in

the District. Both full-time and adjunct faculty teach off-campus. The College provides a robust program

at the National Training Center - Ft Irwin. Barstow Community College maintains a full-time office at Ft.

Irwin, located in Bldg 285. College counselors and other student services are available for service

members and their families. The office may be contacted regarding matters such as classrooms, keys and

gate passes. The office phone number is (760)380-3905. The Off-Campus Director will orient part-time

instructors teaching at these specific sites.

1. We are able to operate our off-campus classes only because of the cooperation of the supervisors of

the facilities being used. Therefore, it is essential that instructors and students comply with the

policies of our hosts and our own college policy that there be no smoking, eating, or drinking of

beverages in class. Budgetary restrictions in our host facilities often overburden the custodial staff

and we therefore ask that chairs, desks, etc. be placed in their original position.

2. Instructors and students are also advised to carefully observe parking regulations at off-campus sites.


27

Employment Forms After your employment has been approved by the Board of Trustees, the following items must be on file

with the Human Resources Office: completed Barstow Community College application, official

transcripts, payroll forms, TB test results, and results of a criminal background check.

Instructional Supplies: See page 12 for information on ordering instructional material.

Classroom Keys Keys may be obtained through the Maintenance and Operations Department. The instruction office will

help with the authorization.

After the class starts, you will need to know the following:

Cancelled Classes Sometimes a class which has been scheduled does not have sufficient enrollment to be taught. However,

an adjunct may be asked to meet the class the first day in case enrollment increases. Also a section

originally scheduled for an adjunct may be assigned to a full-time instructor if enrollments do not meet

projections. In any event, the Vice President of Academic Affairs will notify you by the close of

registration.


29

Class Rosters 1. Instructors may access their class rosters online at any time once registration has begun. For step by

step instructions please see Class Rosters at www.barstow.edu/faculty.

2. Instructors are encouraged to drop students who have failed to appear by the end of the second class

meeting. For instructions please visit www.barstow.edu/faculty

3. If a student attends your class who is not on the class roster and you would like to allow them to add

the course, you must issue an Add Authorization Code. Students not officially enrolled in the class

should not be allowed to attend.

Enrollment/Waitlists 1. Students may register for classes, including adding their name to a waitlist in the event the class is

full, through the Friday before the class begins.

2. If space becomes available in a class, the first student on the waitlist will be notified and given 72

hours to enroll in the class. The waitlist process is in effect through the day before the class begins.

The integrity of the waitlist will be kept intact prior to the first day of class.

3. Once the class begins instructors must issue Add Authorization Codes to any students they would like

to allow to enroll. Instructors are encouraged to give priority to those students who were waitlisted.

4. For more information regarding the waitlist process and Add Authorization Codes please see

www.barstow.edu/faculty.

Census Reports First census occurs at 20% of class meetings and is mandatory. State attendance regulations require that

census certification is submitted for all classes. Instructors must drop all students who have not attended

the class as we are required to clear our rolls of all “No Shows”. For more information and a step by step

guide to submitting your mandatory Census Certification, see Drop Rosters at www.barstow.edu/faculty.

Instructor Absence Instructors must notify the Instruction Office as soon as possible in the event of illness or other absences.

If you know of an absence in advance, a special lesson may be assigned, or a Barstow Community

College approved substitute may be located. A leave form, available in the Instruction Office, must be

filled out and returned for approval by the Vice President of Academic Affairs. It is also helpful to contact

your students through e-mail that you will be absent. This may save them from coming to campus only to

return home. This will also give you an opportunity to assign the students work during your absence.

Student Information Information regarding fees, tuition, add/drop slips, student records, counseling services, financial aid,

student discipline, and student grievances should be referenced through to the College Catalog

(www.barstow.edu/catalog), Financial Aid Policies and Procedures

(www.barstow.edu/FinancialAid/bcforms), and the Schedule of Classes (www.barstow.edu/schedule).

Do not hesitate to ask questions of staff and administrators as this may save everyone time and effort to

rectify misunderstandings.

Student Attendance Attendance rules for all classes are set by the instructor and should be administered fairly and equitably

and must be included in the course syllabus. An instructor may drop a student who has missed more that

10% of all class meetings. Students who never attended class must be removed from the class rolls by

first census. Students not dropped at first census or the late drop period that cease attending must be given

the “FW” grade.

Only students who appear on your official roster may be in attendance in your classroom. Any person not

on your roster must report immediately to Student Services to enroll if possible. This is a liability issue

and puts the College at risk. There are few exceptions for visitors and children. Do not poll the class to

see if anyone objects to someone bringing their child. They are not allowed.

Final Examinations Each course will include a final examination period of approximately two hours duration during the last

week of each semester. Finals for short-term classes will be held on the last day of the class.

Instructors are expected to administer and students are expected to take their final examinations in

accordance with this schedule. Exceptions may only be granted by the Vice President of Academic

Affairs.

Students attending a class after the final date for withdrawal, but unable to appear for the final

examination, may be permitted to:

1. Receive a grade of Incomplete. When practical, the final exam may be sent to a school or other

authority for administration and returned for grading.

2. Be given an early final.

3. Be given a letter grade based on his/her performance without final examination.

4. Petition for withdrawal under a hardship waiver.

Do not give the final exam early unless you receive permission from the Vice President of Academic

Affairs.

Admissions and Records receive all Final Grade Reports in a timely manner as end of term processes

are dependent on the receipt of final grades.

you discover any discrepancies regarding the students listed on the Final Grade Report and those who

have been attending your class you should contact the Admissions and Records Office immediately.

3. All incomplete grades must be accompanied by a Report of Incomplete Grade. An incomplete grade

will not be entered for a student if the Report of Incomplete Grade form is not submitted.

4. Some students opt to enroll in a class with a Pass/No pass grading mode. These students are noted on

the Final Grade Report and the appropriate grade should be entered.

5. FW grades must be accompanied by the last approximate date of attendance.

6. Some classes are considered positive attendance classes. If your class is designated as a positive

attendance class, you must submit the actual hours of attendance for each student.

Grade Changes To change a grade, an electronic grade change form must be submitted to the Vice President of Student

Affairs for approval. Once it is routed to Admissions and Records, the student’s transcript will be

changed.

STUDENT INFORMATION / STUDENT SERVICES Student Information Information regarding fees, tuition, add/drop slips, student records, counseling services, financial aid, and

student grievances should be referenced through the College Catalog and Schedule of Classes.

Accommodating Disabled Students You may have a physically or neurologically impaired student who will require a note taker, sign

language interpreter or other accommodations. Please make every effort to make these students and their

aides feel comfortable. However, ensure that these aides are working with the OSS office when securing

the safety of a test-taking situation. Some aides may work for another agency or may be a personal aide

for a disabled student. Always contact the OSS office if you have any questions regarding an aide or the

legitimacy of a situation regarding the accommodations for a disabled student. The OSS Office provides a

variety of accommodations such as scribes, readers, note takers, and in some cases, extended time for an

exam or other exam accommodations. Test proctoring is always done through the OSS Office and

proctored by a qualified classified employee of the College. If you choose to provide the testing

accommodations for the student yourself, please coordinate with OSS Office to ensure proper

accommodations are in place. If you notice a student struggling and they are not already receiving

EMERGENCY ACTION PLAN

Purpose In the event of an emergency situation, the Emergency Action Plan provides a reference for individuals to

understand their responsibilities and provides guidelines for them to take the necessary actions during this

event. The Emergency Action Plan is intended to assist in controlling the situation, preventing or

minimizing injuries, and reducing damage to property.

Employee Responsibilities Each different type of emergency requires different actions. Read and follow each of the plans below and

follow through accordingly.

Remain calm and follow the Emergency Action Plan guidelines. Calm others around you so that the

necessary actions can be accomplished. Provide clear and concise communications so that everyone

knows exactly what to do. Initiate the appropriate actions for the situation. Report the situation to your

Supervisor, Administrator, the Safety Program Coordinator, or On-Duty Administrator immediately. As

of this writing, the College is expanding and updating response plans and it is important that all

employees and students keep abreast of changes and attend workshops that will keep everyone as safe as

possible.

Dialing 911 from a cell phone will put you in contact with the California Highway Patrol. Dialing (9)911

from a college phone will connect with the Barstow Police Department. The dispatcher who answers the

emergency call will ask a series of questions about the emergency and your location. Know the campus

and your relationship to college buildings and parking lots.

Persons in Charge During an emergency situation and if your Supervisor or Administrator is available, follow their

directions as to what actions to take. If your Supervisor or Administrator is not around, follow the

guidelines of the Emergency Action Plan, and initiate the appropriate actions. If emergency response

personnel such as police, firemen, ambulance attendants, or other authorities are present, follow their

directions as to what actions to take.

Reporting Accidents, Injuries, Illnesses, or Incidents Any time an accident, injury, illness, or incident occurs, it must be reported to your Supervisor,

Administrator, Safety Program Coordinator, or On-Duty Administrator immediately. Following this

notification, a written report must be completed and turned into the Safety Program Coordinator. The

following reports must be filed:

Incident Reporting Form – is to be used for student or visitor involved accidents, injuries, illnesses, or

incidents. This form can also be used by employees to report an incident such as a fire, fight, fender

bender, or other non-injury situation.

Work Accident/Injury/Illness Reporting Form – is to be used for employee involved accidents,

injuries, or illnesses.

Accident/Incident Witness Reporting Form – is to be used to obtain information from any witnesses

during the situation.

Safety Hazard Reporting Form – is to be used to reporting a hazardous or unsafe practice, substance,

or condition.


35

Medical Emergency First determine the severity of the medical emergency:

If the person is not breathing, unconscious, in shock, or bleeding excessively, call 911

immediately.

If the person is conscious, in no immediate danger of death or further injury, but is in need of medical

help, secure their permission before calling an ambulance.

If the person has a minor injury, provide first aid supplies or render first aid.

Report the injury using either the Incident Reporting Form or if it is an employee use the Work

Accident/Injury/Illness Reporting Form.

First Aid Kits are located in all campus buildings. Periodic First Aid and CPR training will be provided

by the College.

Earthquake As the shaking begins:

Stay away from windows, mirrors, wall hangings, and wall hung furnishings.

If in a furnished room, take cover under desks or tables, hold on to it and move with it.

If in an unfurnished room, seek cover against an interior wall, crouch down against the wall and

floor, and protect your head and neck with your arms.

Wait until the shaking stops before exiting the building.

Proceed to an open area away from the building and any overhead structures, lines, or trees.

Take roll to assure that everyone that had been in that room has exited and is accounted for.

Check for injuries.

Do not re-enter the building until you have been given the all clear by the appropriate authorities

who will be visible across campus and available to assist where necessary.

Fire Emergency If a fire alarm is sounding:

Evacuate the room and building in an orderly manner and proceed to an open area away from the

building.


Check for injuries.

Do not re-enter the building until you have been given the all clear by the appropriate authorities.

If there is an active fire in the room you are in:

Evacuate the room and building in an orderly manner and proceed to an open area away from the

building.

As you are leaving, pull the nearest fire alarm pull station for that building.


Check for injuries.

Do not re-enter the building until you have been given the all clear by the appropriate authorities.

Report the incident on an Incident Reporting Form.


36

Power Outage If the electricity goes out during daylight hours, turn off all electronic equipment so that it is not damaged when power is restored. Wait for a reasonable amount of time before contacting your supervisor regarding an alternate work plan.

If the power goes out after dark, turn off all electronic equipment if possible and help anyone needing assistance to exit. Consult with College officials before leaving the campus.

Threat or Violent Act If you are confronted, threatened, or physically harmed, the following guidelines should be followed:

Keep calm and do not antagonize the individual or individuals.

Ask the individual to leave and desist.

Leave the area and report the incident to your Supervisor/ Administrator, Safety Program Coordinator, On-Duty Administrator, or Security Officer.

If the situation warrants, call 911 for police assistance.

Report the incident on an Incident Reporting Form.

Bomb Threat If a bomb threat is announced and you are told to evacuate your office or classroom, exit calmly and make sure you and your students take all personal possessions such as coats, purses and backpacks, etc. with you. Leaving behind items that might look as though they are hiding a bomb will slow down the bomb search process.

If you receive a bomb threat via the telephone:

Do not hang up – remain calm – use a soothing voice.

Continue to talk to the individual – ask questions using the Bomb Threat Checklist found in the Emergency Action Plan flip chart located in each room and office

Be very observant and listen carefully noting everything you can about the caller and noting it on the Bomb Threat Checklist.

Notify your Supervisor/ Administrator or fellow employee so that they can call 911 for police assistance and call tracing.

Supervisor/Administrator or fellow employee must call the Safety Program Coordinator or On-Duty Administrator for assistance in evacuating areas and bomb locating.

If the caller hangs up, leave the receiver off the hook for possible tracing.

Fill out the Bomb Threat Checklist as completely as possible.

For verbal bomb threats received from an individual in your area:

Stay calm, listen carefully, and use a soothing voice.

Ask questions, be polite, and keep the individual talking.

Ask permission to talk to Supervisor/Administrator.

The Supervisor/Administrator or fellow employee should call 911 immediately.

Continue to talk to individual to get the location of the bomb.

If individual leaves, have someone follow them to get any other clues about the individual such as accomplices, car license plate number, etc. Do not apprehend individual.

Contact the Safety Program Coordinator or On-Duty Administrator for assistance.

APPENDIX A: COPYRIGHT LAW GUIDELINES

An Educator’s Responsibilities/Rights As you prepare for your class, you may want to develop handouts, supplemental resources, and audio-visual materials and must be aware of the copyright limitations.

As an educator, you must know about the copyright law and how it applies to the work that you perform. At some point all educators are likely to be faced with an event or activity that bears directly on copyright laws. The law limits what you may copy, under what condition, and for what purposes. Authors and producers have specific rights under the law that cannot be denied. The law was also designed, however, to enable educators and students to have access to information and to reproduce copyrighted materials under clearly defined limitations for educational purposes. An understanding of the concept fair use is a key factor in determining what may or may not be copied. Section 107 of the copyright law states that, …the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phone records or by any other means specified by that section (Sec. 106) for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research is not an infringement of copyright.

Furthermore, Section 107 lists the following four criteria for evaluating the fair use of copyrighted materials in an educational setting:

The purpose and character of the use, including whether such is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes,

The nature of the copyrighted work,

The amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole, and

The effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.

Single Copying for Teacher A single copy may be made of any of the following by or for a teacher at his or her individual request for his or her scholarly research or use in teaching or preparation to teach class: chapter from a book, article from a periodical or newspaper, short story, short essay or short poem – whether or not from a collective work, chart, graph, diagram, drawing, cartoon or picture from a book, periodical, or newspaper.

Multiple Copies for Classroom Use Multiple copies may be made by or for the teacher of the course for classroom use or discussion., but not to exceed in any event more than one copy per pupil in a course, The copying must meet the tests of brevity, spontaneity, and cumulative effect as defined below and must include a notice of copyright. Note: With the exception of a single copy of a cartoon, multiple copies of a single illustration or book or periodical issue may be made.


40

Definitions Poetry: A complete poem if less than 2500 words and if printed on not more than two pages or, from a longer poem, an excerpt of not more than 250 words.

Prose: Either a complete article, story, or essay of less than 1,500 words, or an excerpt from any prose work of not more than 1,000 words or 10% of the work, whichever is less, but in any event a minimum of 500 words.

Note: Each of the numerical limits above may be expanded to permit the completion of an unfinished line of a poem or an unfinished prose paragraph.

Illustration: One chart, graph, diagram, drawing, cartoon, or picture per book or per periodical issue.

Special Works: Certain works in poetry, prose, or in poetic prose which often combine language with illustrations and which are intended sometimes for children and at other times for a more general audience fall short of 2,500 words in their entirety. Such special works may not be reproduced in their entirety; however, an excerpt comprising not more than two of the published pages of such special work and containing not more than 10% of the words found in the text thereof, may be reproduced.

Spontaneity The copying is at the instance and inspiration of the individual teacher, and the inspiration and decision to use the work and the moment of its use for maximum teaching effectiveness are so close in time that it would be unreasonable to expect a timely reply to a request for permission.

Cumulative Effect The copying of the material is for only one course in the school in which the copies are made. Not more than one short poem, article, story, essay or two excerpts may be copied from the same author, no more than three from the same collective work or periodical volume during one class term.

Prohibitions Copying shall not be used to create, replace or substitute for anthologies, compilations, or collective works. Such replacement or substitution may occur whether copies of various works or excerpts there from are accumulated or reproduced and used separately. There shall be no copying of or from works intended to be consumable in the course of study or of teaching. These include workbooks, exercises, standardized tests, test booklets, answer sheets, and consumable materials.

Copying shall not substitute for the purchase of books, publishers’ reprints, or periodicals. Copying shall not be directed by a higher authority or repeated with respect to the same item by the same teacher from term to term


41

Music (Printed Scores, Arrangements, etc.)

Permissible Uses Emergency copying to replace purchased copies which for any reason are not available for an imminent performance provided purchased replacement copies shall be substituted in due course.

For academic purposes other than performance multiple copies of excerpts of works may be made, provided that the excerpts do not comprise a part of the whole which would constitute a performable unit such as a section, movement of aria, but in no case more than 10% of the whole work. The number of copies shall not exceed one copy per pupil.

For academic purposes other than performance, a single copy of an entire performable unit (section, movement, or aria, etc.), that is confirmed by the copyright proprietor to be out of print or unavailable except in a larger work, may be made by or for a teacher solely for the purpose of his or her scholarly research or in preparation to teach class.

Printed copies which have been purchased may be edited or simplified provided the fundamental character of the work is not distorted or the lyrics, if any, altered or lyrics added if none exist.

Prohibitions

Copying to create or replace or substitute for anthologies, compilations or collective works.

Copying of or from works intended to be consumable in the course of study or of teaching such as workbooks, exercises, standardized tests and answer sheets and like material.

Copying for the purpose of performance, except as noted above in emergency.

Copying for the purpose of substituting for the purchase of music, except as noted above in an emergency.

Copying without inclusion of the copyright notice which appears on the printed copy.
