Students are encouraged to understand that advising does not occur in a vacuum, but takes place within the framework of a student’s academic progress. All students should seek and obtain academic advising on a regular basis throughout their academic careers.

To do this effectively, students are expected to:
|
|
Accept responsibility for their decisions and actions. |
|
|
Be open to developing and clarifying their personal values and goals. |
|
|
Become familiar with college rules and regulations as listed in the online college catalog and student handbook. |
