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

campus email.

Along with DCB email, I will also use the “announcement” section in Moodle

to communicate, so be sure to check it regularly.

Academic Integrity:

All students are expected to adhere to the highest standards of academic

integrity. Dishonesty in the classroom or studio and with assignments,

quizzes, exams, and papers is a serious offense and is subject to disciplinary

action by the instructor and college administration. For more information
