Student engagement opportunities are held throughout each semester at a variety of times on multiple campuses. Information about these activities is available via the TCTC EDGE app, the eTC portal, the online activities calendar, and social media. For more information, students may contact Student Involvement Programs at 864-646-1872, or visit the Student Engagement suite (room 208) in the Student Success Center (Pendleton Campus), or by visiting the front desk at the Anderson, Easley or Oconee campuses.

Student Organizations

Tri-County Technical College strives to maximize personal growth and development in students by providing a variety of opportunities for involvement, service, and leadership in extra and co-curricular activities. Student organizations and clubs support the academic mission of the College by working to create experiential learning options outside of the classroom and encouraging students to actively participate in the greater educational community. Student clubs and organizations are coordinated by the Manager of Student Involvement Programs, who also serves as the SGA Advisor. The Student Government Association provides leadership structure for the organizations. A list of current clubs and organizations can be found on the College’s website.

Formation of New Student Organizations

All new clubs or organizations must be approved by the Student Government Association and the Dean of Student Development. New student campus organizations must enhance the instructional program by providing a vehicle for students with mutual interests to work and accomplish goals together. The formation of organizations strictly as social clubs will be discouraged.

Students who are interested in establishing a new student organization must submit to the SGA Advisor, and the president of the Student Government Association the following information:

  • Purpose of the proposed organization
  • Goals and objectives
  • Name of faculty or staff member willing to assume the responsibilities of advisor
  • Proposed organization’s constitution
  • Proposed first-year budget

The Student Government Association will review the information and recommend approval or disapproval to the Dean of Student Development.

Fundraising Activities Policy

Any person or organization selling merchandise, soliciting money or engaging in any other money-making activities at the College must submit a completed fundraising application form to the Manager of Involvement Programs three weeks prior to the date of the proposed event. Fundraising events may not benefit an individual student and should be sponsored by a recognized student organization.  A decision regarding approval or disapproval will be made within one week. Fundraising efforts are approved jointly by the Dean of Student Development and the Vice President for Institutional Advancement and Business Relations.  If the activity is approved, the sponsoring individual or organization will be responsible for conducting the project in a professional and courteous manner. If the activity is not approved, the Manager of Involvement Programs will inform the applicant of the reason. Money obtained from fundraising activities must be used to enhance the educational mission by providing a means for students with mutual interests to work and accomplish goals together. Any money raised will be deposited into an account with the TCTC Foundation and will be dispursed according to the Foundation’s processes.  For additional information, students should contact Student Involvement Programs at 864-646-1872, or visit the Student Engagement suite (room 208) in the Student Success Center (Pendleton Campus) or visiting the front desk at the Anderson, Easley or Oconee Campuses.

Student Participation in Institutional Decision-Making

Tri-County Technical College values the ideas and opinions of its students and encourages student participation in the governance process of the College by including students in the membership of College committees. The student perspective on College issues is also sought through the Student Government Association, surveys, and student forums during which student issues and concerns are addressed by College administrators. For additional information, students should contact Student Involvement Progams at 864-646-1872, or visit the Student Engagement suite (room 208) in the Student Success Center (Pendleton campus) or visit the front desk at the Anderson, Easley or Oconee campuses.

Student Responsibilities

Academic Integrity

The College is committed to the promotion of academic integrity among its students. Students are expected to carry out all of their responsibilities, including course-related assignments, with honesty. The engagement in academic dishonesty by a student is unfair to fellow students who are working with integrity, and negatively impacts the value of the degrees, diplomas, and certificates awarded by the College. For these reasons, all students are asked to assist the faculty and staff in promoting academic honesty on campus. All forms of dishonesty are subject to disciplinary action. For additional information, students are referred to the Student Code in Appendix 3 .

Alcohol and Other Drug Use Policy

The South Carolina Technical College System prohibits the unlawful manufacture, distribution, possession or use of narcotics, drugs, other controlled substances or alcohol at the workplace and in the educational setting. Unlawful for these purposes means in violation of federal, state, and local regulations, policy, procedures, or rules, as well as legal statutes (such as the Drug Free Workplace Act and the Americans with Disabilities Act). Workplace means either on agency premises or while conducting agency business away from the agency premises. Educational setting includes both institutional premises and approved educational sites off campus.

The South Carolina Technical College System recognizes that chemical dependency through use of controlled or uncontrolled substances, including alcohol, is a treatable illness. Tri-County Technical College provides alcohol and other drug awareness information or programs for employees and students. The College supports and recommends employee and student rehabilitation and assistance programs and encourages employees and students to use such programs.

It is the policy of Tri-County Technical College to provide a drug-free, healthful, safe and secure work and educational environment. Employees and students are required and expected to report to their work, class, or student activities in appropriate mental and physical condition to meet the requirements and expectations of their respective roles. The Alcohol and Other Drug Use policy may be found in Appendix 1 .

Community Standards, Including Title IX

As members of the community-at-large and the College community, students are subject to the obligations which accrue to them by virtue of this membership. As members of the larger community of which the College is a part, students are entitled to all rights and protection accorded them by the laws of that community. By the same token, students also are subject to all laws, the enforcement of which is the responsibility of duly constituted authorities. If students violate laws, they may incur penalties prescribed by legal authorities. In such instances, College discipline will be initiated only when the presence of the student on campus will disrupt the educational process of the College. However, when a student’s violation of the law also adversely affects the College’s pursuit of its recognized educational objectives, the College may enforce its own regulations. When students violate College regulations, they are subject to disciplinary action by the College whether or not their conduct violates the law. If a student’s behavior simultaneously violates both College regulation and the law, the College may take disciplinary action independent of that taken by legal authorities.

Tri-County Technical College students are responsible for being aware of the policies and procedures at the College. Enrolling at the College constitutes the student’s agreement to abide by these policies and procedures.

The full version of the Student Code for South Carolina Technical Colleges is included in the Appendices 3 and 4 of the College Catalog. A summary is contained below. The Code, which applies to all Tri-County students, sets forth individual student rights and responsibilities. The Code identifies behaviors that are not consistent with the values of our College community, including those specifically defined in Title IX related to alleged acts of sexual violence or sexual harassment. Enrolled students are responsible for upholding the Code on College property, at College-sponsored events, and while engaged in off-campus activities that may affect the College or our community.

First aid supplies for minor injuries are available at the office of Campus Police on all campuses. No medications will be administered to students by College employees. In case of a more serious injury, students should call 911, then contact Campus Police 864-646-1800, then contact the Dean of Student Development Office for appropriate processing.

A “gang” as used in this policy shall mean two or more individuals (students or others) whose purposes include disruption of the learning environment and/or involvement in criminal acts. “Gang-like” activity shall mean actions that are intended to simulate or manifest gang affiliations, even if the individual performing such actions is not part of a gang.

Identification Cards

Tri-County Technical College student identification cards are mandatory and are required to access the following services: checking out books in the library, using the computer labs, accessing specific buildings and using financial aid in the Campus Store. Student IDs are valid for one academic year and are available to all students.

The College does not guarantee parking spaces; however, adequate parking areas have been reserved for students. Additionally, the College owns a parking lot located at 915 S. Mechanic Street in Pendleton to handle overflow parking from the Pendleton Campus at designated times during the academic year. The parking lot is approximately .5 miles from campus, and a shuttle service is provided. The College will post an announcement in the eTC portal giving times when the parking lot is available for use. Vehicles are to be parked with the traffic flow in parallel-parking areas in one parking space. Students are to follow general parking courtesy which includes not parking on sidewalks, yellow curbs, lawns or grassed areas, or in reserved spaces, crosswalks, driveways, or intersections, or in any other loading or “No Parking” zones. All vehicles must be parked in a legal space.  

Photographing Employees, Students, and Related Activities

The College often photographs and videos its students and employees for use in print and digital pieces to market and promote the College and the South Carolina Technical College System, as well as higher education, economic development, and related topics. Students not wishing to have their photograph or image used for these purposes should file a written request with the Public Relations Department, Suite 265, Ruby Hicks Hall, Pendleton Campus, or call 864-646-1507.

Safety and Security

Students must observe the safety regulations posted in all instructional shops and labs. In many areas, safety glasses, face shields, shoes, or other protective clothing are required. Students should see their instructors for a more detailed listing of required equipment.

In the event of fire, tornado, or other emergency, students should follow exit, evacuation, or other appropriate instructions posted in the classroom, shop, lab, and hallway, or as given by the instructor or the College’s emergency notification system. Elevators should be avoided in an emergency.

Emergency communications are issued by text, voice, and e-mail, and appear on the public website, social media, and eTC portal announcements. Students are automatically enrolled in the emergency notification system upon admission to the College. Once enrolled, students should check to be sure their emergency notification number is correct by logging into eTC and checking the Welcome tab where the number is listed. If the number is not correct, students can click on a link to quickly and easily update the number.  

Students must notify the College’s Campus Police Office in the event of any accident or other incident that occurs on campus, including theft or vandalism. The College is not responsible for any theft or vandalism of personal property anywhere on the College premises.

Notwithstanding the prior mentioned restriction, salaried law enforcement officers of a municipal, county, state, or federal law enforcement agency are permitted to have a firearm on their person when on campus and when dressed in official uniform. Plain-clothes, salaried law enforcement officers are required to wear their firearms in a concealed manner.

The South Carolina Code of laws 16-23-420(a), addressing the carrying of a weapon on campus, states: “It is unlawful for a person to possess a firearm of any kind on any premises or property owned, operated, or controlled by a private or public school, without the express permission of the authorities in charge of the premises or property.”
