Academic Advising Center

Robert Nelson, Academic Advising Director

Students who wish to transfer to four-year colleges or universities can visit the Academic Advising Center before or during their first semester at MCC. The center advisor assists you in mapping out your coursework to fit the specific requirements of the transfer school of your choice.

Not sure where you want to transfer? The advisor can help with that, too. Once your courses are mapped out, your academic advisor will use the “map” at registration to assist you in selecting the courses you need.

The advising center has been established to assist students who have the long-term goal of obtaining a four-year degree by guiding students into the courses they need based on their intended major and school to which they will be transferring.The director of academic advising is available to meet with students to develop a plan of study (POS) that consists of courses offered at MCC equivalent to those at their intended school of transfer. Assistance is also available to AAS degree students who have decided to transfer upon graduation.

Attention College Transfer Students!

All college transfer students are encouraged to meet with the Director of Academic Advising during their first semester at MCC. This meeting will focus on selecting equivalent courses based on the major at the transfer college or university.

Condensed Taxidermy Schedule

taxidermy2

In response to current and prospective students’ needs, MCC’s Taxidermy program will implement a condensed instructional schedule beginning Spring Semester 2007. The new schedule will offer Taxidermy courses leading to a certificate in a three-day (M-W) format; students will attend class from 8:00 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. each day.

Several factors have prompted this new instructional strategy. Many students in the day Taxidermy program have major financial commitments, especially in the distance they commute to attend MCC. The three-day schedule will reduce travel cost and will allow students an additional day to maintain part-time employment.

The extended hours on campus over three days will also enhance the learning process for the students. Many of the taxidermy skills require more time per day than the current shorter schedule allows. Longer days will also help eliminate the possible loss of project specimens since students will have more time to complete daily projects.

If you were one of those who said that you could make a three-day instructional week, you no longer have an excuse. It’s available! Gain the skills you need to retire on or to start a new life. Call or email Billy Adams, lead instructor, at 910-576-6222 ext. 228, This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. for more information on this exciting new opportunity to learn the art of taxidermy.
