Academic Support Centers At each campus, a computer lab area is designated as an Academic Support Center (ASC). Each center is run and supported by lab technicians with oversight by  faculty. The ACS provides students with access to computers for word processing, library research, Internet access, computer-based tutorials, special software, technical assistance and tutoring. While tutoring is generally not done in the ACS, the center is a good contact point to connect students who need assistance with tutors. The ASC staff also provides proctoring for make-up exams, exams for internet and video conference courses and proctoring/assistance for delivery of tests of students needing special services, such as extended test time, etc. Students with disabilities can find technical assistance in the ASC. Labs are equipped with special keyboards and software, large monitors, headphones for audio-based programs and scanners. ASC staff is trained to help disabled students learn to use the provided equipment/software.

IMPORTANT REMINDER: The Academic Support Centers are open computer labs where students have access to online research, resources and production software. Academic Support Centers do serve as testing sites for Distance Learning students and house assistive equipment for students. As such the Academic Support Centers are quiet areas where all users are expected to conduct themselves in a manner of respect to their fellow users. This includes setting cell phones to silent and leaving the Academic Support Center to hold phone conversations. Per College policy (College Rules #3) children are not allowed on campus unless they are under the direct supervision of their parent or guardian. Food and drinks are not permitted in the Academic Support Center.
