Welcome to the Fall 2013 Term!


It is that time of year again when we would appreciate your confirming student attendance so we can see just how many students are coming to class. As usual, we will forward a memo to your MCC e-mail account outlining the attendance process for the term. However, new this year, we have a video: https://content.monroecc.edu/content/documentation/videos/Attendance/Attendance.html which provides detailed instructions on how to enter your attendance – do you recognize the voice? This link is also available on your MyMCC under faculty resources. We have made no major changes, so if you have done this before – you should have no problems this term.

You need to enter attendance for every student enrolled in your course(s).  Please enter this data AFTER the census date of the course.  This is very important because census date is the magic date when students who attend classes on or after census are (a) permitted to collect their financial aid; and (b) are counted in our enrollment based funding calculations.  Therefore, you need to complete your attendance rosters AFTER your course census date (Full term courses have a census date of 9/23/13). Your census date is clearly noted in the personal attendance memo being sent to your e-mail account.  It is also noted on the class rosters sent periodically to your e-mail account.  These dates are also available on the MCC web page at
https://www.monroecc.edu/depts/recreg/variedLengthWithdraw.htm

I have enclosed some instructions and a Frequently Asked Questions listing to try to answer any questions you might have.  If you find yourself getting frustrated with the attendance entries, send me an email so we can help you.

Attendance for courses with a census date of 9/30/13 or earlier should be completed in Banner by Wednesday, October 2rd.   Courses with a census date after 9/30/13 (typically late start courses) will need to complete the attendance process by Thursday, November 21st.  A reminder memo will be sent to you.  

Remember that attendance processing is a required task, just like grading.  We need attendance in order to issue financial aid to students.  So, please jot the October 2nd deadline on your calendar.  And keep an eye on your e-mail because I will send gentle reminders as the date gets closer. 

Call if you have any questions.  Anne Lanzafame can be reached at "
mailto:ALanzafame@monroecc.edu" or by phone at 292-2238.  We are happy to help.
