Dallas County Community CollegeDistrict

The Dallas County Community Col-lege District's four innovative educa-tional com m un ities are dedicated to acommon goal: serving in the best pos-sible way the complex, varied and ever-changing educational requirements of agrowing metropolitan community.

Each of the district's colleges-East-field, EI Centro, Mountain View andRichland-are therefore committed toproviding every person in Dallas Countya quality educational experience,whether the person is a youth settingforth toward a degree in medicine, or anadult wanting to enrich his leisure hourswith an interesting hobby.

There is a place for a student whowishes to spend a year or two preparinghimself to enter a trade or profession,and a place for an employed person whowants to further his training in his occu-pational field. .

There is a place for the eager highschool student who is ready to under-take college-level training in advance ofhis graduation from secondary school,and a place for the mature high schooldrop-out who has changed his mindabout the necessity of education in to-day's complex, demanding SOciety.

There is, simply stated, a place foreveryone.

This appro achto education bringstogether 'into a single college setting amultitude of personalities with divergentinterests, ambitions and backgrounds,creating an educational community not·unlike the "real" community in whichpeople live, work and play and furtherenhancing the district's desire for totaleducation. Of primary importance to thedistrict's goal is making certain that astudent's educational program is tai-lored to his needs, abilities and ambi-

12

tions. The philosophy of the district is tocreate an educational program for anindividual, rather than to try to squeezeor stretch an.individual to fit an "educa-tional mold."

Therefore competent, intensive initialand continuing counseling and guidanceis offered every student to discover hisgoals and special abilities and to updatehis educational program if those goalschange during his college experience.This emphasis on counseling, rare forsome institutions, is routine procedureat all district colleges.

The traditional "junior college" label,therefore, doesn't fit. True enough thedistrict's colleges are two year collegeswhich provide the freshman and sopho-m?re years of a conventional four-yearbaccalaureate program. However, theirfunction, philosophy and breadth makethe label inadequate. Therefore on thefirst day of 1972, the district became theDallas County Community College Dis-trict to more accurately reflect the mis-sion of its colleges, that of meeting thevaried educational needs of the entiremetropolitan family.

How do the district's colleges servethe educational requirements of such acomplex family? The answer can befound in educational offerings in fourbroad categories:

-For the student seeking the firsttwo years of work toward the goal of abachelor's or higher degree, the col-leges offer a long list of courses whichare transferable to senior colleges anduniversities.

-For the student wishing to enter anoccupation at a level above the bottomrung of the ladder, the colleges offerone-year and two-year programs ofcredit courses covering specific tech-nical-occupational fields.

-For the employed person wishingto improve his knowledge of his field-or train for a move into a new occupa-tional field-the colleges offer a broadrange of Community Service courses.

-For the person who simply wants tomake life a little more interesting thereare Community Service courses offeringa myriad of subjects on cultural, civicand avocational topics.

Dallas County voters created the dis-

trict in May 1965 and approved a $41.5million bond issue.

The following year the district's firstcollege, EICentro, opened its doors forthe Fall Semester in the heart of down-town Dallas. In August 1970, EastfieldCollege and Mountain View Collegeenrolled their first students and themulti-campus district envisioned by thedistrict planners became a reality. Rich-land College became the district's fourthcollege with the start of the 1972-73school year.

In addition to these four colleges,sites have been purchased for three fu-ture colleges, Brookhaven College,Cedar Valley College and North LakeCollege.

These-remarkable facilities and excel-lent faculties combine with the district'sunique but effective philosophy and thestrong support of the people and institu-tions of Dallas County to create four out-standing educational communitieswithin the bustling metropolitan county.

Richland CollegeA fresh, new educational experience

awaits the "charter" students of Rich-land College, a sparkling new campuswhich opens (or the first time in the fallof 1972.

Here a vital and dedicated faculty willinteract with nature's primitive architec-ture and contemporary campus designto create an exciting learning environ-ment for students of all ages.

The campus plan enhances the nat-ural beauty of .the site/ which includes ameandering, spring-fed creek inter-rupted by dams to form two picturesquelakes. Campus facilities extend alongboth sides of the lakes, linked by openand closed pedestrian bridges. Extensivelandscaping augments the many naturaltrees which exist on the site.

Richland College is located on a 259-acre site at 12800 Abrams Road, withconvenient access routes from Richard-son, Garland and other areas of northand northeast Dallas County.

The land occupied by the college waspreviously used for agricultural pur-poses/ with a history of ownershipdating back to the early settlement days

of Dallas County in the early to mid-1800's.

Official action acquiring the site wastaken by the Board of Trustees on Au-gust 30, 1966. The name, Richland Col-lege, was approved by the Board the fol-lowing month, on September 20, 1966,to suggest a link between the two majoradjacent communities of Richardson andGarland.

Planning for the college began in thespring of 1967, with the selection of ar-chitects on March 21/ 1967. The long-range master plan and the design for thefirst phase of construction were pre-pared by The Oglesby Group Architectsof Dallas with The Perkins and Will Part-nership of Chicago as associated archi-tects. The Oglesby firm previouslyserved as architects for EI Centro Col-lege, which has received several designawards and other, recognitions as an. at-tractive and functional high-rise urbancollege.

Construction on Richland Collegebegan in the fall of 1969 with theawarding of an advance site work andpaving contract. Work on the generalcontract for building construction beganin July, 1970.

The campus plan makes extensive useof pre-case concrete both as a structural

13

and a design feature. Exterior walls aretypically of masonry, with frequent useof glass to provide vistas of the exteriorareas.

Structures on the east side includethe Learning Resources Center, PhysicalEducation and Fine Arts complexes. Thewest side units include the Campus Cen-ter, Science/Occupations and Adrninis-tration buildings. The bridge-like struc-ture which links the two sides, providesopen and closed pedestrian circulationacross the lakes, and houses recreation,college store and student activity spaces.

Richland College has the district'sonly planetarium, a 100-seat facility witha 4O-ft. dome. The planetarium has prov-ision for lowering the projection lnstru-ment into a floor pit, permitting thespace to double as a lecture classroom.Another "Richland only" feature will bethe horticulture unit located near the

. main entrance to the campus, housingoccupational programs in landscape andnursery areas.

14

Refund PolicyThe refund policy for Richland Col-

lege is based on the fact that student tui-tion and fees provide only a fraction ofthe cost of providing educational oppor-tunities. When a student enrolls in aclass, he reserves a place which cannotbe made available to another studentunless he officially drops the classduring the first week of the semester.Also, a student's original enrollmentrepresents a sizeable cost to the districtwhether or not he continues in thatclass. Therefore, a refund will be madeonly under the following conditions:

1. No 100% refund is granted unlesscollege error is involved.

2. An 80% refund of tuition and feesis granted during the first week ofclasses of a long semester. (Thefirst two days of a six-weeksummer session are considered tobe equivalent to one week duringa long semester.)

3. No refund will be made after thefirst week of classes.

4. Requests for a refund must besubmitted before the end of asemester or summer session forwhich the refund is requested.

5. A refund of less than $4 for tuitionand/or fees will not be made.

A student who feels that his refund re-quest is due to an extenuating circum-stance beyond the limits of the refundpolicy may submit a letter of explanationto the Refund Petitions Committee in theOffice of the Dean of Student Services.

Refund checks normally require aminimum of one month to process

Class Attendance

Students are expected to attend regu-larly all classes in which they are en-rolled. Class attendance is the responsi-bility of the student. It is also theresponsibility of the student to consultwith his instructors when he is absentfrom a class.

Instructors are required to reportstudents to the Dean of Students forexcessive absences. Generally, first ex-cessive absence reports are made when

a student is absent from class thenumber of hours for which the class hascredit. At this point, students are warnedthat failure to attend class may result insuspension from that class. Second ex-cessive absence reports are filed withthe Dean of Students when, in theopinion of the instructor, a student'scontinued absences warrant his suspen-sion from class.

Classroom Dishonesty

Dishonest work on tests, term pap-ers,and examinations is a serious of-fense. Plagiarism (the act of using sourcematerial of other persons without fol-lowing the accepted techniques of cred-iting) is never acceptable behavior in anacademic community.

A student who drops or withdrawsfrom college will receive a "vv" in eachclass from which he has withdrawn. Thedeadline for receiving a "vv" is two

23

weeks prior to the end of the semester.After that time, a "student will receive aperformance grade in the course.

If a siUaent leaves without officiallywithdrawing, he will receive an "F" in allsubjects.

Procedures for auditing a course willbe administered by the Registrar. Noaudits will be approved prior to the firstday of the second week of classesin anysemester. Most lab courses may not beaudited.

Definition of Acceptable ScholasticPerformance

College work is measured in terms ofsemester credit hours. The number ofsemester hours credit offered for eachcourse is included with the course de-scription.

Acceptable scholastic performance isthe maintenance of a grade point av-erage of 2.0 (on a four point scale) orbetter. A student may not be graduatedfrom any degree or certificate programunless he has a cumulative grade pointaverage of 2.0 or better. Grade pointsand hours earned in courses numbered99 and below are computed when de-riving a student's scholastic standing:however, they are not computed forgraduation requirements.

Scholastic P.robation and ScholasticSuspension

The policies on scholastic probationand scholastic suspension apply to full-time students (12 semester hours ormore) and to part-time students whenthey have attempted a total of 12 se-mester hours.

The following criteria will be used todetermine academic standing:

I. Students who have completed oneor more semesters in a college will beplaced on probation if they fail to main-tain a 2.0 cumulative grade point av-erage.

2. Studentswho havebeen placed onscholastic probation may be removedfrom probation when they earn a 2.0cululative grade point average.

3. Students on scholastic probationwho achieve either a cumulative gradepoint average of 1.5 or above or a pre-vious semester grade point average of2.0 or above may continue on scholasticprobation.

4. Students on probation who do notmeet the requirements of paragraph 3,will be placed on scholastic suspension.

The periods of scholastic suspensionare: 1) suspension for the first time-one regular semester and 2) subsequentsuspension-two regular semesters.

Transcripts of Credit from RichlandCollege

The Registrar's Office will send thestudent's transcript upon request to anycollege or agency named. However, astudent's official transcript may be with-held until he has settled all financial obli-gations to the college.

Waiving of Scholastic SuspensionAny student pursuing an academic

transfer program who wishes to transferto a technical-occupational program mayhave his earned credits evaluated for thepossibility of disregarding any gradesbelow a "C" as long as the student fol-lows the technical-occupational pro-gram. The logic of this procedure is thatmany students do poorly while pursuinga course of studies for which they arenot suited but make rapid improvementswhen faced with tasks more suited totheir interests and aptitudes. This proce-dure is contingent upon the studentremaining in a technical-occupationalprogram. A change to an academictransfer program places the studentunder the original conditions of the aca-demic transfer program including thecalculation of a cumulative grade pointaverage of all college credits earned.This procedure will apply both to Rich-land College students and to studentstransferring from other institutions. Thestudent who wishes to avail himself ofthis opportunity should state his inten-tions in writing to the Director of Admis-sions prior to preregistration and shouldassume the responsibility of informinghis counselor during the pre-registrationadvisement session

Library ObligationsWillful damage to library materials (or

property) or actions disturbing to theother users of the Library may lead torevocation of library privileges. Casesinvolving such damage will be referredfor further action by the appropriateauthorities.

All books and other library materialsmust be returned before the end of each

semester. No transcripts of grades maybe issued until the library record iscleared.

HonorsA full-time student who has com-

pleted at least 12 hours of credit and whoearns a grade point average of 3.00·3.49will be listed on the college Honor Roll.Full-time students who complete at least12 hours of credit and who average 3.50-4.00 will be placed on the Dean's HonorList. The Honor Roll and Dean's Honorlist will be published each semester

Credit by ExaminationUnder special circumstances, a stu-

dent regularly enrolled and in goodstanding who believes he is qualified byexperience or previous training may takea special examination to establish creditin a particular course. Ordinarily, theprivilege of taking an examination forcredit will be granted only to studentswho have at least a "B" grade average inall courses attempted at Richland Col-lege.

A maximum of 12semester hours maybe earned by examination. The only ex-ception to this rule is when the totalnumber of semester hours credit in-volved in any 3 specific courses is greaterthan 12semester hours. Credit by exami-nation may be attempted only one timein any given course and a grade of "B" orbetter on the examination is required inorder to receive credit. Requests forexaminations should be made to a coun-selor who will provide the necessary pe-tition forms and advise the student ofthe procedure. A student, whether part-time or full-time, will pay an examinationfee of $12 per examination. There is norefund of this fee in case of failure toestablish credit.

Only after the student has completed,or is currently enrolled in, 12 semesterhours credit in residency will the se-mester hours earned through examina-tion become a part of the student's per-manent record. Students planning tograduate under minimum residencyrequirements may not use credit byexamination to establish residency.
