Communication/Campus Email
All students at DCB are given a DCB email account. This account is how DCB
will communicate with you. You will receive important emails about classes,
financial aid, emergencies, school closures, important dates, etc. through this
email account. Along with the important emails you will receive, it also gives
you access to Microsoft Office software.
I WILL use your DCB email account for ALL communications with you. YOU
are responsible for checking your email regularly. I will email homework
lists, important dates, information on photo shoots, grades, etc. to your DCB
account. You are responsible for knowing all the information sent to your

Along with DCB email, I will also use the “announcement” section of the
Moodle class to communicate, so be sure to check it regularly.
