The College Bookstore stocks books for all courses. Used textbooks, at a reduced price, are offered when available. Reference books and extra reading items are carried in open stock. A variety of school supplies and miscellaneous items are on display. Regular hours are posted in the window and on the College Web site at www.scc-fl.edu.

College textbooks may be returned to the bookstore within the first seven business days from the beginning of the term if the textbooks were purchased from the bookstore. Returns must be accompanied by a current cash register receipt and a valid drop or withdrawal form.

The amount of refund on new or used books will be determined by the condition of book presented for refund. This amount will be determined by the bookstore. Refunds will range from a full refund price to a minimum of one half the original price.

A 100 percent refund will be given if a class is cancelled by the College. No refund will be given on books, materials, and supplies which are not listed on the official book list. Exceptions to the procedures are considered at the recommendation of the bookstore manager.

Bulletin Board Use

Persons wishing to post notices on College bulletin boards must secure clearance to do so from the Student Activities Office.

Emergency Procedures

An emergency is defined as the illness or injury of an individual while on a Seminole Community College campus or any disturbance on a campus which, if action were not taken immediately, could result in a serious injury or possible death. If anyone is in doubt whether a certain situation should be treated as an emergency, follow the emergency procedures. The Emergency Operations Procedures are designed to be utilized in concert with the Hurricane Brochure; and the Emergency Response Manual. The established emergency procedure involves the notification of the campus switchboard that an emergency has occurred. This is accomplished by dialing "0." When the operator answers, provide the following information:

1. Your name.
2. Your location, e.g., building, floor, hall, room number.
3. The location of the emergency.
4. The type of emergency or injury, e.g., bleeding, fracture.

The switchboard operator will notify the appropriate emergency personnel (i.e., campus security, rescue unit, ambulance, police, fire, or other needed services). Until emergency personnel arrive, Seminole Community College staff will take whatever actions are appropriate to address the situation. If an ill or injured student elects not to be transported by appropriate emergency personnel, College personnel shall not transport or arrange for transportation of ill or injured student.

Housing

Seminole Community College does not provide on-campus housing.

Lost and Found

Any article found should be delivered to that campus' Security Office. The College will dispose of unclaimed articles after 30 days.

Mail

Students are required to keep the College informed of their current mailing address. The College meets all notice requirements to students by sending to the last mailing address provided by the student. Students should have all personal mail sent to their residence address. Change of address cards may be obtained in the Enrollment Services Office.

Medical Services

No medical facilities are available to students on any campus. First aid packets are located in strategic locations throughout the campus for emergency use only. Campus medical emergencies are handled as listed in the Emergency Procedures section of this catalog.

Parking and Traffic Regulations

At the time of registration, each student who plans to park his motor vehicle on the campus is issued a copy of the parking regulations and a free parking decal that is valid for the academic year. After the first day of classes of any term, faculty, staff, and students may not park any motor vehicle on any College campus at any time unless that vehicle has been properly registered and the parking permit has been appropriately displayed. Students may receive a copy of the parking regulations and a parking decal from any SCC cashier.
