IMPROVEMENT OF INSTRUCTION POLICY AND PROCEDURE
PURPOSE:
The primary purpose of Professional Development Projects is the improvement of instruction through projects
outside the normal course development activities regularly engaged in by faculty. These may include such
activities as the production of videotapes, multimedia presentations, computer simulations, self-paced tutorials,
instructional manuals, or other course materials for department use; development of faculty seminars which
may include the use of outside scholars or consultants; or participation in off-campus workshops or credit-free
courses which bear directly upon instruction and course content.
Note: This benefit is dependent on the College budget.
CRITERIA:
While it is almost impossible to define with great detail the kinds of applications which are appropriate, some
general examples might be helpful. Projects such as the creation of supplementary materials to be used by
multiple instructors in all sections of a course, or the development of extensive materials for alternate modes of
instruction are eligible, while activities such as regular course revision and the development of routine support
materials are not eligible for funding. Off-campus seminar or conference fees and expenses are eligible for
support, with those activities which relate most directly to the improvement of instruction having top priority. A
similar test will apply to on-campus seminars or group activities involving outside consultants or speakers.
Attach a descriptive brochure or announcement to all applications for participation in seminars, workshops,
credit-free short courses and similar activities.
ELIGIBILITY:
All full-time members of the professional staff are eligible to apply for Improvement of Instruction awards.
APPLICATION PROCEDURE:
Applications must be approved by the Department Chair and should be forwarded to the Office of Academic
Affairs by the announced deadline. For joint projects, submit one application identifying the co-applicants; the
first name listed will be considered the contact person for the grant. Applications are available on the DCC
website at Blackboard, Faculty tab, Faculty and Staff Information, Important Documents, Grant Forms and
Documents.
DCC MINIGRANT PURPOSE AND PROCEDURE
The purpose of the DCC Foundation Mini-Grant Program is to encourage innovative activities or projects by
individuals or groups of the professional staff that will have a significant impact on students and college life. All
applications will be considered for funding, but preference will be given to projects that address College
objectives for the coming academic year.
There are different types of mini-grants available, which may have different requirements and award amounts.
Note: This benefit is dependent on the DCC Foundation budget.
Guidelines and Application Procedures:
1. Purchased equipment will become the property of the College.
2. Applications are available on the DCC website at Blackboard, Faculty tab, Faculty and Staff
Information, Important Documents, Grant Forms and Documents.
3. Submit applications to the Office of Academic Affairs.
28
TUITION REIMBURSEMENT GUIDELINES
The following guidelines govern the administration of the tuition reimbursement policy covered by section 5.02
of the latest Negotiated Agreement.
1. Priority I applicants include the following:
a. Teaching educators on continuing or term appointments who are taking graduate courses to
satisfy promotion and tenure requirements.
b. Non-teaching educators.
c. Educators directed by the Academic Dean to pursue studies to meet a specific college need.
d. Educators on sabbatical leave doing graduate work.
2. Priority II applicants include the following:
a. Full Professors pursuing graduate study to enhance their professional development. 75%
initial support, full balance if available.
3. The Dean of Academic Affairs may approve partial grants even to Priority I applicants in order to
have funds available for the full academic year.
4. The Dean of Academic Affairs may approve lesser grants or no grants for Priority II and III applicants
should the Dean judge that Priority I applicants require all available funding.
5. Applicants should apply in September for funds for the entire academic year including the following
summer. Approval to apply at a later date may be given by the Dean of Academic Affairs.
6. The total reimbursement from a combination of SUNY Tuition Waiver and DCC Tuition
Reimbursement may not exceed $2,000 per professional staff member in the academic year.
29
CONFERENCE ATTENDANCE AND TRAVEL POLICY
The policy on Conference Attendance and Travel is located in the Professional Staff Handbook. Please refer
to section 17.1 - Travel Authorization and Allowances.
TUITION WAIVER PROGRAM FOR CREDIT COURSES
The following guidelines govern the administration of the contractual benefit allowing professional staff and
their dependants to enroll in Dutchess Community College courses without paying tuition. Courses may be
taken for grade or for audit.
The conditions under which this benefit may be exercised are:
1. Students must be eligible for participation in the program pursuant to the Collective Bargaining
Agreement. Individuals claimed as a dependent must meet all relevant IRS criteria to qualify as
a dependent.
2. A Tuition Waiver Form must be obtained from the Office of Human Resources Management.
3. The waiver may be used for courses taken for credit or audit.
4. The waiver applies only to tuition, not fees.
5. The student is not guaranteed placement into a particular course or section.
6. After approval by the Office of Human Resources Management, the student completes the
regular registration process, submitting all forms and payment of fees by the normal deadlines.
Auditors should wait until the first day of the semester to register.
7. The grade for the course, or an indication of audit status, will be available on an official
transcript.
ATTENDANCE AT DCC CREDIT-FREE COURSES
[Includes Ed2Go and ProTrain online courses]
The following guidelines govern the administration of the contractual benefit allowing professional staff to
attend job-related Dutchess Community College credit-free courses.
IMPORTANT: two actions are required. The professional staff member must obtain the waiver form,
described below, and then also register for the course through the Office of Community Services.
1. This benefit applies only to members of the Professional Staff. The following process
eliminates the necessity of the individual paying and being reimbursed.
2. Credit-free courses must be related to the professional staff member's field of expertise, in the
judgment of the appropriate Department Chair and the Office of Academic Affairs.
3. The professional staff member obtains approval via a Credit-Free Tuition Waiver form, available
in the Office of Academic Affairs. This form must be signed by the Department Chair and
forwarded to the Office of Academic Affairs. The approved form will be returned to the
individual.
Note: In appropriate cases, the Dean of Academic Affairs may require that the individual
complete other forms, such as an Application for an Improvement of Instruction Grant.
4. The professional staff member also must register for the course through the Office of
Community Services through the normal registration process. Present the signed Credit-Free
Tuition Waiver form when registering.
INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY
On days when the College remains open during inclement weather, students should make their own
30
determination regarding whether to attempt to travel to class based on the safety of road conditions in their
own locale. Students will not be penalized for missing class under this circumstance. Students are responsible
for the work missed and are expected to make it up in a reasonable time, as determined by the individual
instructor. Weather conditions may, at times, necessitate the early closure of the campus or a delay in the
start of classes. Announcement of class delays or cancellations will be made by 6:30 a.m. for day classes and
by 4 p.m. for evening classes (those that begin after 5 p.m.). It is not necessary to call the College to inquire
about delays and closings.
The first notifications will be posted on the College’s website home page (www.sunydutchess.edu), Facebook
page (www.facebook.com/DutchessCommunityCollege/) and Instagram account
(#dutchesscommunitycollege), followed by cancellations.com, poughkeepsiejournal.com and the iHeart, Town
Square Media and Pamal websites/radio stations.
Please Note: Normally, weather-related class cancellations on the main campus also apply to off-campus
sites. Cancellation of day classes does not automatically extend to evening classes or programs.
Classes at all DCC sites, including off-campus sites such as DCC Fishkill, or off-sequence classes on the main
campus should meet if there is a minimum of thirty minutes of instructional time available after the
opening of classes. For example, when a delayed opening is announced for 11:00 a.m., classes that meet
from 10:00 a.m. to 11:50 a.m., should meet at 11:00 a.m. since 50 minutes would still be available for
instruction. Labs that are scheduled across the delayed opening which cannot be completed in the remaining
time should meet with the remaining instructional time used for an alternative learning activity.
Nursing students in clinical should follow the instructions of the clinical instructor.
31
Class Cancellation Procedures
Online
The preferred method to cancel classes is to submit them online. To cancel your class online, log into
Blackboard and click on the Faculty Tab. Look for the Class Cancellations module. Click on “Submit Class
Cancellations”, then complete and submit the form. If you have any questions, go to the DCC Wiki at

If you have questions, please contact the DCC Help Desk at 845-431-8000 ext. HELP (4357)
32
EXTENDED COURSE OUTLINES (EXO)
The Extended Course Outline is the primary vehicle for describing each credit bearing course offered at
Dutchess Community College. It forms the basis for a contract among the student, the program or
department, and the college by identifying the basic components of the course. The course description
should be a clear and understandable abstract and will be published in the college catalog, and/or
schedule of classes, and/or addenda. The Student Learning Outcomes included in the EXO are the basis
for course assessment activities and should describe, in terms that can be measured, what a student
will know or be able to do by the end of the course. Whenever a course is revised or updated, it is the
Extended Course Outline that documents the changes.
The Extended Course Outline should not be confused with the syllabus. While the EXO contains the basic
components of the course required to be taught by all instructors, the syllabus describes how the individual
instructor will implement that outline through specific assignments. Faculty will distribute syllabi to their
individual classes that may include specific information such as contact data (office location, office hours,
email, phone), daily / weekly topics, assignments, test dates, grading standards, and other statements
concerning the conduct of the course as required by the individual instructor. All syllabi should include the
course description and objectives that match those in the Extended Course Outline.
Comprehensive Guidelines for Extended Course Outlines have been developed and approved by the
Curriculum Committee. They can be found in the Curriculum Committee Handbook and on
myDCC/Faculty/Faculty and Staff Information/Important Documents/Curriculum Committee. Please refer to
that document for information when completing an Extended Course Outline.
FAQ’s about EXO’s:
1. When is an EXO required?
An EXO is initially required when a new course is proposed. For any existing course, an EXO must be
completed whenever changes are made to a course title, description, co- or pre-requisites, the textbook
or whenever a course is substantially revised. Extended Course Outlines must be reviewed and
updated at least every three (3) years.
2. Who gets a copy of the revised EXO?
An electronic file copy along with a signed hardcopy of the signed Extended Course Outline for each
course offered by the College must be on file in the Office of Academic Affairs. Each academic
department should also maintain a file of its current Extended Course Outlines.
3. Can I use the EXO as a syllabus?
The EXO can be distributed to students if an instructor chooses to do so. However, since the EXO is a
generic course document, a cover sheet should be included that includes class specific information
such as contact data(office location, office hours, email, phone), daily / weekly topics, assignments, test
dates, grading standards, and other statements concerning the conduct of the course as required by
the individual instructor.
33
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 and included in
the course syllabus. 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.
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.
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 Academic Affairs, or online through the college’s website. Complete the first portion of
the Grade Appeal Form, 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 Chair or Departmental Supervisor, that person should refer the student to the
instructor as the first step in the process. Under extraordinary circumstances, the Department Chair 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.
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 Chair.
The Department Chair will review the Grade Appeal Form and attached materials, and meet with the student
and the instructor to discuss the matter. The Department Chair will report his/her decision and rationale in
34
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 Chair does not result in a satisfactory resolution, the student or instructor
may submit, within fourteen days of receiving the decision of the Department Chair, the Grade Appeal Form to
the Office 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 Committee on Student Learning and Assessment (CSLA). The faculty selected to serve on the
Academic Review Committee must 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
Chair, 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 Chair 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 Chair, 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.
35
ACADEMIC INTEGRITY POLICY
Dutchess Community College is committed to the principles of honesty, integrity, and ethical behavior. It is
expected that students will recognize these values and adhere to all aspects of student conduct and academic
honesty inside and outside of the classroom.
Academic dishonesty in any form is regarded by the College as a breach of academic ethics and may result in
disciplinary action.
Academic dishonesty includes, but is not limited to, the following:
Cheating on examinations
Plagiarism: the representation of another’s ideas or writing as one’s own. Examples include:
presenting all or part of another person’s published work as something one has written;
paraphrasing or summarizing another’s writing without proper acknowledgement (citation);
representing another’s artistic or technical work or creation as one’s own.
Willingly collaborating with others in any of the above actions which result(s) in work being submitted which
is not the student’s own.
Stealing examinations, taking electronic images, falsifying academic records and other such offenses.
Knowingly permitting another student to use one’s work or cheat from one’s examination.
Submitting work previously presented in another course without permission of instructor.
Unauthorized duplication of computer software.
Unauthorized use of copyrighted or published material.
If, based on substantial evidence, an instructor deems that a student is responsible for a violation of the
Academic Integrity Policy, the instructor may take the following actions:
The instructor may require that the student repeat the assignment or examination, or
The instructor may give the student a failing grade for the assignment or examination, or
The instructor may give the student a failing grade for the course.
(continued on next page)
36
As an institution of higher education, it is incumbent on the College to ensure that students understand and
uphold the highest standards of academic honesty and that there be accountability in cases where students
repeatedly violate those principles. In order to build an intellectual culture of academic integrity and ensure
that students learn appropriate behavior in their academic endeavors, faculty and staff who judge that a
student intentionally violates the Academic Integrity Policy shall report said violation to the Office of Academic
Affairs.
The Office of Academic Affairs, in consultation with faculty and staff, will be responsible for developing and
implementing appropriate academic administrative reporting procedures, educational interventions, disciplinary
actions, and appeal processes.
Students’ right to privacy will be upheld, and all students shall have the right to appeal any action that results
from this process.

each new candidate and submitted to the OAA. The forms are available in the OAA. These forms should be
accompanied by a resume and professional VITA.
The President is given the completed VITA form and resume/VITA by OAA. Based on the consideration of the
President, an invitation letter may be sent to the prospective advisory committee member, which also contains
information as to how the individual can accept or decline the invitation to join the Advisory Committee.
When a chairperson removes someone from their committee, they should notify the OAA so a letter thanking
the person for having served on a curriculum advisory committee can be sent and accurate records can be
maintained.

the letter to faculty in those classes they are seeking accommodations for. In terms of testing
accommodations, students must notify faculty in a timely manner of their desire to take exams in the
test center rather than in the classroom, and reserve a seat in the test center at least 3 business days
in advance of the exam in order to ensure space and equipment availability at the time of the exam.
Faculty are encouraged to contact our office with any questions or concerns about the accommodation
plans presented. Please visit our link on the Faculty tab in Blackboard for resource material and
additional information.
Services include:

COMMUNITY-BASED LEARNING/SERVICE LEARNING SUPPORT
Community-based learning, also referred to as service-learning, is an educational experience
integrating community service with an academic class to enhance learning and address critical
community needs. Community- based learning emphasizes hands-on experiences that address real-
world concerns integrating critical thinking, reflection, and civic responsibility. Students gain knowledge
that’s directly connected to the student learning outcomes of the service learning course being taken.
Likewise, the academic context enriches the service experience by raising questions about real-world
concerns and providing a forum for probing these concerns in-depth. There are a variety of types of
community-based projects ranging from direct placement at an agency, a presentation for a community
group or K-12 classroom, creation of a project or product for a community partner, or advocacy for a
cause or issue related to the academic course work. For more information, contact program assistant Parlene Puig at [email protected] or
at 845-431-8567.

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 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. Field Trips that are overnight require more processing time
and faculty members should plan accordingly. Please submit overnight field trip requests at least four
weeks in advance 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
posted under QuickLinks on the Faculty and Employee tabs of myDCC. 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 link to the DCC Emergency
Services page, including access to the DCC Emergency Action Guide, can be found on the mydcc website. A
fire safety video can be viewed at https://www2.sunydutchess.edu/firealarm/.
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. Building occupants
who are unable to evacuate due to disability or infirmity should seek shelter in Areas of Refuge, typically in the
building stairwells, and notify Security via the emergency telephones in each Area of Refuge. 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. Driveways and access roads are to be left clear for the fire equipment
HEALTH OFFICE
The College Health Office is located in the Student Services Center, Room 110 and is open weekdays from
8:30AM to 4:30PM. A Registered Nurse is available during those hours. In an emergency, call 911 from a
campus phone or your cell phone. By dialing 8070 from a campus phone, you will be connected directly to the
Security Office.
MAIL SERVICE
College mail is generally distributed at 10:30am in the mailboxes located on the 3rd floor in Hudson Hall.
Mailboxes should be checked at least once daily. The campus courier will deliver all packages to all offices on a
daily basis. Outgoing mail should be left in the Mailroom prior to 2:00 p.m. to ensure it processes that day. All
mail received by the mailroom after 2:00 p.m. will be processed in the next business 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.

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

semesters. Summer hours for photo ID’s vary. This card is necessary to use the Library and other college

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. This should only be done via DCC email or within
Blackboard. A grade should never be sent to a personal email address. The grades may not under any
conditions be posted or released to anyone other than the student.
PRINTING AND DUPLICATION WORK
All off-campus printing must be approved by the Director of Communications and Public Relations 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 Chair 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
There is a two day turnaround time on printing requests. The preferred method to have your request printed is
to email it to [email protected] in a PDF file with the above information.
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.
RESEARCH USING DCC STUDENTS AND EMPLOYEES
The Institutional Review Board (IRB) at Dutchess Community College (DCC) is responsible for protecting the
rights and welfare of human research subjects. The IRB has oversight over all research activities at DCC
involving students and employees, EXCEPT in cases of typical educational activities, pedagogical inquiries, and
assessment efforts needed for internal purposes. IRB approval must be secured before beginning any research
activities. For information, please visit: https://www.sunydutchess.edu/aboutdcc/institutionalresearch/irb.html

SAFETY & SECURITY
To provide round-the-clock protection against fire, theft, and vandalism, the College employs a security service
under the direction of the College's Director of Campus Safety. Uniformed security guards are on duty, making
continuous tours of the campus and all buildings 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Staff members wishing to
enter buildings at times when the College is normally closed should contact the Security Office (ext. 8070 or

of disability, illness, injury, or if there is a reasonable concern for personal safety. To utilize this service, call
the Security Office at 845-431-8070. Escorts are generally limited to a single requesting person.
Please note that Security does not have the ability to take reservations or calls in advance for an escort. In
rare occasions, Security staff may be engaged in other calls for service, which could delay an escort or
transport from being granted at the time of the request.
PERSONAL PROPERTY – Record serial numbers of electronics, or mark personal belongings so they are
identifiable in case of theft. Take pictures of valuable jewelry. Always secure items in an area out of view of
others. If securing items in your car, the safest place is the trunk or a locked luggage compartment.
