Individuals who are accepted into these bodies have the rights and privileges of membership. They also incur responsibilities. Responsibility is defined as personal accountability or the ability to act without superior guidance. Responsibility is an essential part of student development. Students should be more than passive transients. They must be active and responsible in their own learning environment. A student who is open to the experiences that college offers will find that all learning requires an investment of time and effort. Learning in college is a joint proposition. The institution and faculty are responsible for providing the resources and opportunities. Students are responsible for involving themselves in their class work. While colleges have responsibilities to students and to society, they are not solely responsible for the outcomes of their students. If students are unwilling to do their part, then outcomes will be less than satisfactory. Individuals who are unprepared to accept their

6 responsibilities as students and who have demonstrated such should not expect to successfully complete their course of studies. Assigned Readings: In order to ensure student success in this course, the student is responsible for all assigned readings, including but not limited to textbook chapters, discussion postings, homework assignments, labs, articles, instructions, manuals, and s. The assigned readings are a required part of this course in order to assess the Effective Communication general learning outcome. The student may use information from these readings to analyze the basic elements of an idea, thought, or experience; to synthesize and organize ideas, information, or experiences; to make judgments about the soundness of information, arguments, or methods; to apply theories or concepts to practical problems; or to use information to perform a new skill.

Digital Library B123 Tutorial Center C106 Math Lab E206 Writing Center G200 Science Lab H200 Academic Advising/Career Counseling: After the initial advising in the Admissions Office, each student is assigned an academic advisor in his/her chosen program of study.

Stark State College offers career counseling resources in The Career Services Office, S100. Faculty and department chairs may provide guidance to students toward career goals.
