DRESS CODE
Students are to dress in the program scrub outfits during class. On LABORATORY DAYS
blue jeans (in good shape with no holes) and program scrub top or a TCC logo polo shirt is to be worn
(as directed by the instructor). Heavy duty boots (dark in color) are to be worn during “each” class
day to provide protection around animals and out-door weather. On “In-hospital” surgical days,
students will need to bring additional, clean scrub tops, bottoms, cover-gown, and a second pair of
clean boots/tennis shoes for changing in to during times “within” the surgical room (thus, minimizing
the tracking of soiled clothing & shoes into the operating room). **FAILURE to wear the required
clothing may lead to a FAILURE of the class.
ANIMAL CARE ROTATIONS (ACRs)
It is a privilege to learn and work with live animals. It is also a serious responsibility! Students
deficient or failing in proper care of resident program animals, as determined by the coordinator and
staff will be subject to disciplinary action and lowering of VETT 2364/Large Animal Technology
grade. Refer to the Grand Rounds and Animal Care Rotations grading handouts given at the beginning of
the semester. Also, please refer to the Student Handbook for further information.
Purpose: To provide appropriate husbandry and medical care for Resident Program animals.
Grading: As discussed in the Student Handbook, you earn points during your animal care rotations. You start
with "0" and earn points per rotation.
Animal Care Rotations (ACRs) will comprise a portion of your grade in 1 course per semester. ACR's are
Pass/Fail. Passing will constitute 5% of the total course points. This equates to raising your grade 1/2 letter
grade. See below for Failure.
Criteria for Pass/Fail are:
Attendance of 100% -- unexcused absences or excessive excused absences (at faculty discretion) will result in a
drop of 1 letter grade for the course. Absences are made up 2 for 1,that is, you will perform 2 rotations for
each one missed. Make-up rotations are scheduled at the faculty's discretion. It is the student's responsibility to
communicate with the faculty regarding make-up rotations.
Performance evaluation by faculty. Failure will result in the drop of 1 full letter grade in the course. Faculty will
evaluate the following criteria:
Leadership
Team building
Organization
Communication
Team Work & Overall performance of entire team
Punctuality
Total time taken to complete rotation
Sanitation
Tidiness
Ability to perform & critically think concerning
TPR's
U, BM, APP observations and comments

NOTE: **Failure of ACR's may potentially lead to COURSE FAILURE, repeat of the course
and the semester, and/or dismissal from the Program per the discretion of the VT
Coordinator.
It is our privilege to work with live animals during the Program. Their presence allows for class laboratory
experiences. It is our Responsibility to care for them, improve their behavior and adopt them to caring, responsible
homes. As everyone embraces this stewardship, you will experience fulfilling and rewarding careers.
EVALUATION/GRADING TECHNIQUES:
Student attendance will be taken each class and each lab period. Your attendance and participation in both
lecture and laboratory will affect your final grade. Participation in laboratories with a student’s demonstration of
techniques and procedures, to the instructors’ satisfaction, is an important component of this course and will reflect in
the grade. **“TEAM-WORK” (working together) is always expected from each student during large animal
events. There will be no make-up laboratories. Material presented by guest speakers, during field trips, or any
additional material discussed/handed out by the instructor may be covered on examinations.

PLAGIARISM POLICY
Deliberate plagiarism is claiming, indicating, or implying that the ideas, sentences, or words of
another writer are your own; it includes having another writer do work claimed to be your own, copying the
work of another and presenting it as your own, or following the work of another as a guide to ideas and
expression that are then presented as your own.
At the instructor’s discretion, a student guilty of deliberate plagiarism may receive a zero for the
assignment and an “F” in the course.
Accidental plagiarism is the handling of quotations and paraphrases without a deliberate attempt to
deceive; it includes failing to mark the beginning of paraphrases, failing to get away from the language of the
original text when paraphrasing, failing to mark quotations with properly placed quotation marks, and failing
to properly identify the source of a quotation or paraphrase. At the instructor’s discretion, a student whose
paper contains accidental plagiarism may have the opportunity to rewrite the paper with a reduction in grade.
ACADEMIC DISHONESTY OR MISCONDUCT
Academic dishonesty or misconduct is not condoned nor tolerated at campuses within the Tulsa
Community College system. Academic dishonesty is behavior in which a deliberately fraudulent
misrepresentation is employed in an attempt to gain undeserved intellectual credit, either for oneself or for
another. Academic misconduct is behavior that results in intellectual advantage obtained by violating
specific standard, but without deliberate intent or use of fraudulent means. Academic dishonesty or
misconduct cases are governed by the Campus Student Rights and Responsibilities Code (see Student
Conduct Handbook).
