Tutoring and Library Rules

It is important for this area to have an environment that is conducive to learning. Those who visit the Library are expected to maintain that learning environment; therefore, the following will be expected of all while in the Library:

  1. Noise will be kept to a level that is conducive to studying.
  2. No tobacco products of any kind.
  3. Children will not be allowed in the Library if they disrupt other students from concentrating on their studies.
  4. The display or printing of obscene material on lab computers is a Class C misdemeanor of the Texas Penal Code and will not be tolerated. Offenders are subject to prosecution, possible fines, and forfeiture of lab privileges.
  5. The computers are for educational purposes only. 
  6. Cell phones should be on silent or vibrate. If a call comes in, please leave the Library to answer it.

If the above rules are not followed, one warning will be given. On the second offense, the student will be asked to leave.

Taking a Test in the Testing Center

If students need a proctor, they will need to make an appointment by contacting Kendra Araiza at (806) 457-4200 ext. 751 or karaiza@fpctx.edu at least 24 hours in advance.  We will provide them with whatever testing instructions are required by the instructor.
