H. Councill Trenholm State Technical College complies with
the provisions of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990, which

It is the policy of H. Councill

Sexual Harassment Policy:
H. Councill Trenholm State Technical College affirms
its commitment to ensuring an environment for all employees and students which
is fair, humane, and respectful.
Therefore, the College will not tolerate any verbal or physical conduct
that constitutes sexual harassment of any employee or student.
Such behaviors are prohibited by
Federal regulations, which state:
“Harassment
on the basis of sex is a violation of Section 703 of Title VII. Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for
sexual behaviors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature
constitute sexual harassments when (1) submission to such conduct is made
either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of an individual’s
employment, (2) submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is
used as the basis for employment decisions affecting such individual, or (3)
such conduct has the purpose or effect of substantially interfering with an
individual’s work performance or creating an intimidating, hostile, or
offensive working environment.”
H. Councill
Trenholm State Technical College deplores such conduct as an abuse of authority,
and thus it is an official institutional policy that sexual harassment of
employees and/or students will not be tolerated. The College accepts the proposition that
sexual harassment, like any civil rights violation, generates a harmful
environment. The administration of the
College will act positively to investigate alleged harassment and to affect
remedy when an allegation is determined to be valid.
Complaints
about sexual harassment should be registered in the office of the Title IX
Coordinator on your campus.

Academic Dishonesty Policy:
The primary goal of H.
Councill Trenholm State Technical College is the promotion of an atmosphere
conducive to studying and learning.
Those conditions and actions that encourage scholarship are applauded;
those conditions and actions that deter or discourage intellectual growth and
development are deplored. Therefore,
‘Academic Dishonesty’ is defined as follows:
1. Cheating on an exercise, test, problem, practice or
examination submitted by a student to meet course requirements. Cheating includes, but is not limited to: the
use of unauthorized aids (such as crib sheets, written materials, drawing,
etc.); copying from another student’s work; soliciting, giving and/or receiving
unauthorized aid orally or in writing; or similar action contrary to the
principles of academic honesty.
2.
Plagiarism on an
assigned paper, theme, report or other material submitted to meet course
requirements. Plagiarism is the act of
using, in one’s own work, the work of another without indicating that source.
3.
Use of tests or
papers prepared by commercial or non-commercial agents and submitted as a
student’s own work.
Charges of academic dishonesty made against a student
by a faculty member must follow the principles of due process. Faculty members must bring charges against a
student in writing. A faculty member shall not give the grade ‘F’ or any
punitive punishment for academic dishonesty unless guilt is established through
the due process procedure.
