 Seasonal Student Issues
There's a seasonal ebb and flow when
it comes to student issues. Here are a few thoughts on
what your student may be experiencing this
winter.
- Feeling happy and/or restless after
the holiday break
- Missing family and friends back
home
- Glad to be reunited with campus
friends
- Resolving to do better
academically
- New leadership opportunities may be
available for emerging leaders
- Renewed interest in classes
- Unwanted weight gain after the
holidays
- Cold weather blues (especially this
Manhattan winter!)
- Possible roommate changes
- Thinking about where they'll live
during the 2010-2011 academic
year

 Where Should I
Study?
With fall grades complete and many
students wondering how they can improve or maintain
their grades may raise the question of study habits and
studying environment. The environment where your student
studies can make a big difference. You can encourage
your student to take a good, hard look at where he/she
can maximize his/her study time by considering places
such as:
- The MCC library
- Hale Library on KSU campus
- The laundry room
- His/Her bedroom
- The Campus Center
- The Study Loft in the Campus Center
- City Park
- Outside on MCC or KSU campus (of
course, when the weather is nice and warm)
- Residence hall lobbies or suites
- Sud's Y'R Duds Laundromat
- Coffee shops
- Restaurants with Wi-Fi
Encourage your student to always study
in an area that is safe and not too
isolated. |
Important Info for Parents/Family
Members
The Family Educational Rights and
Privacy Act, Federal Law 20 U.S.C. 1232g (FERPA) states
that it is illegal for any MCC employee (faculty, staff,
or work-study student) to share information about your
student if he/she is over the age of 18. Thus we are
unable to release information about grades, attendance,
financial information, health/counseling or disciplinary
records, etc. without permission from your student. This
provides a right of privacy to students regarding their
educational needs.
For more information about FERPA, refer to the
