Student services closed for week-long Thanksgiving break
The Advocate
Registration for winter term started Thursday for continuing students with more than 46 credits earned at MHCC and today for continuing students with 45 or fewer credits.
Dean of Student Services Robert Cox said, “Bumping the registration week forward a week should provide less stress for returning students as they can now register for classes prior to the Thanksgiving break. You would think that having registration out of the way prior to the holiday would provide students the ability to focus on studying rather than registration.”
As a result of furlough days (employees giving up pay as a result of college and state budget constraints) and the Thanksgiving holidays, all offices will be closed Monday through Friday of Thanksgiving week. This is why web registration for new students begins on Nov. 23. and in-person registration will begin on Monday, Nov. 30, for everyone.
Cassie McVeety, vice president of college advancement, said, “The closure days are certainly unfortunate for all and we have tried to minimize the impacts to students while trying to address the serious budget issues we face.”
Even though offices will be closed, the college website http://www.mhcc.edu has resources to help students register online. Winter term starts Jan. 4.
