Spots to smoke

EvCC has smoking booths for students, faculty and staff, however students are choosing to create their own spots to smoke. The bus stop on Wetmore Avenue beyond the Olympus building and the staff/student parking lot along that sidewalk, often there is a crowd of smokers.

The question is where are the cigarette butts being placed? Mostly on the ground. EvCC student Lisa Berry-Reyes says "We need a butt can so everyone won't throw butts on the sidewalk or street."

There is also a student-created smoking spot right outside the Gray Wolf Hall sidewalk by the parking lot. Is it necessary for EvCC to prevent the residents on Wetmore Avenue from filing complaints? Is it conducive for the environment of EvCC to place 'butt cans' where students can use them?

Something to consider.

Campus computer switch-over may cause issues

EvCC is changing the base computer program over Memorial Day weekend and many systems will be unavailable for a period of time hopefully not to exceed the long weekend. ANGEL will still be online, but registration and financial options will not.

Students are encouraged to register as soon as their access dates allow, to get into the classes they need.


Employees from across the state and EvCC will be working on Memorial Day and that weekend making sure that everything is working the way it should, in the hopes are that on the Tuesday after the holiday, when everyone gets back to school and work everything will be working flawlessly.

The following systems, affecting students and faculty, will be offline during the system switch-over:

The Student Management System (registration, financial aid, etc)
All payroll-related systems
The business office
