Portfolio witness
Each candidate has a nominated assessor who is competent in both assessment and the area of competency they are assessing the candidate in. The candidate must produce performance as well as documentary evidence relating to all of the relevant assessment criteria.
It is neither practical or desirable for an assessor to witness all performance, and therefore the candidate will ask others to either provide witness testimony or endorse evidence they produce to show that they did what they say they did.
The candidate will probably give you a copy of the relevant assessment criteria to help you direct your testimony.
You are not being asked to make an assessment decision, merely give a record of what happens.
You should never assume anything about the candidates performance.
Only record or endorse what you actually see.
If you endorse a candidate's record of events please sign and date and print your name on every sheet.
If the candidate wishes you to make an observation of his/her performance and record what you see, he/she will supply you with a specific observation form that you will be asked to sign and date.
You will be asked to provide your contact details should the assessor and verifier wish to speak to you to confirm any details of the performance.
If you have any questions please ask the candidate or the candidate's assessor.

Join Jess Stratton for an in-depth discussion in this video Exploring the iOS 7 Update, part of Monday Productivity Pointers.
- Overview
- Transcript
- View Offline
My name is Jess Stratton and welcome to Monday Productivity Pointers. This week I'm very excited to bring you iOS 7 and show you some new features and to go over some things that you may find confusing to help you out as you get used to it. The first thing you'll notice is that you have an all new look and all your icons have changed to match the new look of iOS 7. And yes, your wallpaper and your icons are indeed moving with something they call, dynamic backgrounds.
You can choose to change it to a still one and Apple gave us a nice new list of still backgrounds in settings. The first thing I want to show you is the control center. Everything is one tap away. A simple swipe up from the bottom of the screen. Brings up the control center. And from here I can do things like toggle bluetooth, WiFi, and airplane mode on or off. I can change the brightness, I can adjust the music player controls. I can even air drop things to other people who are nearby and using an iOS7 device, such as photos, or videos, or contacts.
Finally I can access some useful utilities, like a flashlight, clock, calculator and even access the camera, a simple swipe downward will make it go away. Now you can disable it when you're in an app, for example if you're using an app that has a similar motion and you keep swiping it by mistake. You can also disable it from being used via the lock screen. Now, if I swipe down from the top of the screen this brings up the notification center. Now, the first thing that you'll notice is that the weather is all text based now.
I can see what the first thing on my calendar is, what's going on tomorrow. And I can totally customize this. I can add a calendar view, stocks. I can even have it show me my overdue reminders. And I can customize all this in settings. If I switch to the All tab, right at the top, I can see any of my app notifications. In fact, here's some mail ones that are coming in right now. I can also tab to the missed one, which will show me any notifications that happened while my phone was in lock mode. A quick swipe up, and the notification screen goes away.
Now, something that's different in IOS 7 is where Spotlight searches. In previous versions, if I swipe to the right, I got a new screen with a magnifying glass. And from there, I can search on any app where it is. To access spotlight search now, I need to swipe down from the middle of the screen. This is going to bring up a search box, and now I can type in any app or contact or piece of text. I'll tap Cancel and get out of it for now. But while we're talking about missing apps, I'm going to open up a folder.
I can now put unlimited amount of apps in folders. I'm not capped by a limit anymore. And I also see less apps per screen now. So if you notice that some of your apps are missing from a folder, look for the dots at the bottom of the screen and that will tell you how many swipes you have to go over all the apps that are in that folder. For example, in my Utilities folder, I have two screens worth of apps where it used to only take up one. To move between apps, double tap the home screen quickly.
This is going to bring up the view where I can go back and forth between any app that I have open. To close out of an app, I used to have to press and hold an app, and then tap the minus symbol next to that app to close it out. Now all I have to do is swipe up with my thumb and it goes away. So speaking of apps, the app store can now update your apps automatically. But don't worry about missing any new features. If I go into the app store, I can now tap updates in the bottom right hand side of the screen. And I can see the date that the app was updated.
And I can go to what's new and to see what actually changed. So I won't have to miss any new features. There's some new features in the App Store also. For example, right in the bottom middle of the screen, there's a feature that says Near Me. This is going to show me any apps that are located in places of physical proximity to me. Now this is great if I'm touring and I want to see if any museums have any apps or local stores. There's also a new category for kids, and we never had this before. If I tap Featured, and then Categories, I can scroll to the kids category and it's going to show me kids apps sorted by age, which is fantastic if I'm browsing for new games for my kids.
Let's talk about what's new with some standard apps. One of my favorite new feature is in iMessage. Now, it used to be that if you had a message, you were never really sure what time that message came in. But now, I can tap and hold quickly and move to the left hand side of the screen. Now I'm still holding down with my finger, and I can see a timestamp of every single text. As soon as I let go, it goes away. Another really great feature, is in the compass app. I'm going to swipe down from the middle of the screen again, to open up spotlight search.
Now the compass app is not new, but there's something really neat inside the compass app that is new. Here's my standard compass, but if I swipe to the left-hand side of the screen, I now have a built-in level on my iPhone. This is really fun, it actually works in both landscape mode and portrait mode. Siri has also gotten some updates. The first one is that it can integrate with things like twitter. For example, what is lynda.com saying on twitter? >> Checking Twitter. I found some tweets.
>> So now I can quickly say what one person or a particular brand or a particular celebrity or a news outlet is saying on Twitter. I can also change pronunciation. In previous versions Siri used to have some trouble pronouncing certain family members names and now you can simply say that's not how you pronounce that. And Siri will walk you through some steps so that you can update the pronunciation of names. Let's talk about the camera. There's some new camera features now too. The first one is burst mode.
This means that you can hold down the shutter button, and your iPhone will keep taking pictures until you let go. This will hopefully allow you to get at least one good shot out of maybe 20 that you could take. I'm going to open up the camera now, because you can also take things like square shots. And if you're using the new iPhone 5c, you can take gorgeous slow-mo video now. So right now I'm taking a regular photo, but if I swipe to the left. I can see that it now changes into a square. And I can also further swipe and take a panoramic shot.
What's really neat is I can tap the three dots on the right hand side. And I can see some live filters that I could add to the photo. I can see how these filters are going to look, before I even take the photo. If I want to go back to the normal way of looking at the camera, I can simply tap None in the middle and it will remove any live previews of filters. There's lots of ways to view photos. If I tap the photos icon, the first thing I see is that I'm in the photo section. This is a really fun way to look at your photos.
It starts out by viewing it as a year and each year holds collections. And each collection holds something Apple calls moments. You can see your photos taken in various physical locations. For example if I tap and hold I can scroll through all my photos organized by year, when I took them, and where I took them. If you want to get back to your camera roll, tap albums on the right hand side, because your camera roll is really just an album. So if you want to find it and get back to the way you used to look at photos, you can simply go back to your camera roll.
Let's open up the web browser. I'm going to open up Safari. Now the first thing that you'll notice when you scroll is that you're automatically running in Full Screen Mode. To get out of Full Screen Mode, or to get to your Bookmark bar, or the top URL bar, simply tap near the bottom of the screen. It's going to open up the navigation bars and the top search bar. Now in that search bar, you can either type a URL or a search query. There's only one bar now. I can tap the two icons in the very bottom right hand side of the screen, and this is how I can navigate back and forth between any open browser windows that I have open.
To remove one, I can simply swipe it off the screen. Let's move onto music. Pandora-like music streaming has come to the iPhone, and it's called iTunes Radio. You can create your own station and customize it by adding songs, artists, and even genres of music that you like. To find iTunes radio you first need to go into the music app. From there tap Radio in the bottom left hand side. This is where you can create your new station and start using iTunes radio right away. Finally, there's one more feature that I want to tell you about.
And that is that FaceTime now has an audio only option. So why would you not just use the phone? Well for one, now you can use your iPad just like a phone. And it also uses WiFi instead of your iPhone's cellular connection. So now you have a new way to make an international call to somebody else using an iOS device also. So as time goes by, we'll all discover some new features and hopefully will let you easily navigate your way through iOS 7.

'Seed Pod' invades Frank Lloyd Wright in Madison
Madison — Brenda Baker's big, twiggy "Seed Pod" has been nestled into the pristine geometry of Frank Lloyd Wright's Monona Terrace since October. It's huge — about 71/2 feet tall and 10 feet wide — and its unruly ovoid form dominates the concrete esplanade, bristling with a defiantly organic energy.
Placed with an almost comical symmetry in the center of the walkway, perfectly aligned with both Monona Terrace's rooftop fountain and the Capitol dome in Madison, it conjures up strangely opposite impressions. On the one hand, it's like a giant tumbleweed, blown in by a freak storm. At the same time, I can't escape the way it echoes an alien spacecraft (especially with Wright's retro-futuristic building as a backdrop), like the one that landed on the National Mall in "The Day the Earth Stood Still." »Read Full Article

Cedarburg native Josh Thompson unveils video for 'Wanted Me Gone'
Just in time for a concert swing through his home state, Wisconsin's biggest national country star, Josh Thompson, has released the video for his new song, "Wanted Me Gone." The song is the second single from Thompson's sophpmore album, "Turn It Up," which was released in April. It is already following the first song, "Cold Beer With Your Name On It" toward the country radio top 40.
The song is a classic country kiss off with a catchy groove. The video finds Thompson addressing his ex from the tailgate of a pickup filled with his belongings and sitting defiantly in a lawn chair under a window with his clothes - and even a whitetail archery target- raining down on him. »Read Full Blog Post

Sometimes new is just too expensive. When that is the case, people often turn to used stores to find what they need for cheap. A Fair Trade is rather a hole in the wall, located deep in the port city where only the brave can find it. Lucky them, their bravery is rewarded with quite a selection. The shop owner will take whatever you're willing to trade him, may it be coin or Pokemon. Just know that Trader Joe isn't stupid and isn't one to get swindled. Mind yourself because he knows how to drive a hard sale.

Live music highlighted fund-raiser for family in need
It was a way of saying they care. Members of Liberty Baptist Church held a fund-raiser Saturday for David Gore at the Hopeful Community Center.
Surgery for two brain tumors and his ongoing medical care racked up more than half a million dollars in medical bills. Bands from the area and from as far away as Macon and Tennessee donated their time as families gathered to eat lunch and fellowship to help raise funds for the Gore family's living expenses.
Church spokespersons Bud Jones and Monyua Lowe explained Gore was diagnosed in February with two massive brain tumors. Within one month of the diagnosis David suffered a heart attack while at Piedmont Fayette Hospital and was flown to Piedmont Atlanta Hospital. Gore subsequently underwent surgery for the tumors, in which surgeons were able to remove about 90 percent of the tumor mass.
Gore is now undergoing chemotherapy and radiation treatments for the cancer that could not be removed. At this point David is bedridden and paralyzed on his left side, they said.
At this time David's wife, Valerie, has sole responsibility for caring for her husband. Yet another blow entered the family's life when Valerie lost her job when her company moved to California, organizers said. Lowe said the Gore family subsequently lost their home and will be moving in with the Lowe family in Jonesboro.
The Saturday fund-raiser saw the Hopeful Community Center on Ga. Highway 92 populated not only with families and friends, but with musicians playing gospel and country music.
Among those performing were gospel bands The Smith Family, Tennessee's Heavenly Vision and the Liberty Pickers along with country Smith and Jones and The Sho-Nuff Country Band.
Country fans might recognize the name Ernest Jones. It was his gold fiddle and his comment to Charlie Daniels that "We're they best that there is" that reportedly became a part of the song, "The Devil Went Down to Georgia."
"This is a family in crisis. This has left the Gore family with enormous needs and without an income with which to meet those needs. Medical bills at this time total over $500,000. The required medicine for David is over $500 per month," Lowe and Jones said.
Though the fund-raiser is over, the needs for the Gore family are not. Those wishing to contribute can make the check payable to Liberty Baptist Church with David Gore indicated in the memo section. The church's address is 1077 Hwy. 314, Fayetteville, GA 30214.
For more information contact Bud Jones at 404-391-0395 or Monyua Lowe at 770-603-8332.

Thumbs Up for Donald the Digital Demagogue
In today's Internet-dominated world, rational argument is highly overrated. Given the speed of modern communication, there's no longer time for the methodical give and take of reasoned debate. If you just got slammed on Facebook, you better hit back fast and hard or you'll quickly become yesterday's man.

This review was updated in September 2016 and all the information is correct as of that date
This is my review of the American Airlines AAdvantage credit card issued in the UK by MBNA.
It is part of my series of articles looking at the major UK loyalty credit cards and discussing whether or not they are worth applying for. These articles will be linked to the relevant sections of the 'Credit Cards Update' page. My other UK airline and hotel credit card reviews can be found here.
If you want to check your credit record before applying for a new card, click here to get your free Equifax credit report and score. Your first 30 days are free then it's £14.95 per month. You can cancel at anytime.
As with all rewards cards, this is not a suitable product for you if you do not clear your balance in full every month. You should focus on a credit card with a low interest rate such as the AA Low Rate Card. This has a very attractive representative APR of 6.4% variable on purchases and balance transfers.
Key link: American Airlines AAdvantage credit card application page
Key facts: No annual fee
The representative APR is 22.9% variable.
About the card
The American Airlines AAdvantage cards are issued by MBNA as a double-pack, with recipients receiving an American Express card and a Visa card. This has become a common trend in recent years, with card issuers wanting to benefit from Amex's higher merchant fees whilst at the same time not wanting to put off anyone who is concerned about limited Amex acceptance.
MBNA also issues the United, Etihad, Emirates, Miles & More and Virgin credit cards, amongst others. If you already hold one of these cards and are refused for the AA card, they will usually change their mind if you ring up and offer to reduce the credit limit on your existing card or cancel it entirely.
What is the sign-up bonus?
The sign-up bonus is 5,000 miles, triggered with your first purchase.
During special promotions, this can increase to 15,000 miles. The last offer ended in early January 2016.
On its own, 5,000 American Airlines miles are not going to get you very far if you live in the UK. I discuss some possible redemption ideas below – 30,000 miles is probably the most interesting 'cheap' redemption, which would get you a one-way in Business Class on AA's partner Etihad to the Middle East.
Note that American Airlines devalued its reward chart in February 2016 and most redemptions increased in price after that date.
Any other benefits?
12 months interest-free credit on all American Airlines purchases charged to the card. You will pay 0% interest for six months on any balance transfers you arrange within the first 90 days. These are subject to a 2% fee.
What is the annual fee?
There is no annual fee.
What do I earn per £1 spent on the card?
Cardholders earn 1.5 AA miles per £1 spent on the Amex and 0.75 miles per £1 on the Visa. MBNA has a good reputation in my experience for posting points punctually.
This is a very impressive earnings rate for a free card.
What is an AAdvantage mile worth?
This is a tricky one, especialy from the perspective of someone living in the UK. Let's consider a few variables.
Firstly, AA is a member of oneworld, as is BA. This means that AA miles can be redeemed for British Airways flights, although you will be using AA's partner award chart which is here. You can quickly see that using them for BA European flights is poor value – 12,500 AA miles is enough an Economy one-way inside Europe in Economy, for eg, but you will still pay BA's taxes and fuel surcharges.
Redeeming with Avios instead would let you do a Reward Saver redemption which caps the taxes on a one-way in Europe at £17.50, possibly £100 cheaper. It only becomes interesting if you go to the far reaches of Europe, since AA charges the same for London to Paris as it does for London to Moscow.
Long-haul from London, using BA planes, AA is a relative bargain on India and the Middle East since Business is 85,000 vs 120,000 (Middle East) or 150,000 (India) for BA, and First is 125,000 vs 180,000 (Middle East) or 200,000 (India) with Avios points (all return prices, BA prices are based on peak dates). AA is also a partner with Etihad which lets you fly to Abu Dhabi in their impressive J and F cabins.
Asia routes are equal, with Japan and Hong Kong costing 150,000 miles return in business class compared with 150,000 Avios. Cape Town is a decent deal – BA charges additional Avios miles if you change planes in Johannesburg, which is necessary in most cases given poor availability on the direct flights, whilst AA does not.
Australia is also an exceptional deal using American Airlines miles. A First Class ticket costs just 230,000 miles return from London, compared with 400,000 miles using British Airways.
AA miles come into their own when redeeming on AA planes, especially across the Atlantic, where you will NOT pay a fuel surcharge. When using Avios, BA charges a fuel surcharge whether you use AA or BA planes, even when AA does not charge a fuel surcharge itself. The new AA business class seat is also seen as superior to the British Airways Club World seat.
Since a UK-based AA collector is likely to redeem on BA flights, I use the same valuation as I do for Avios – 0.75p per mile. On this basis, the 1.5 miles per £1 on the Amex is equivalent to a 1.1% rebate on your spend. The Visa returns just 0.55%.
How does this compare to a cashback credit card?
The best cashback card on the market which offers a) a MasterCard or Visa, b) no annual fee and c) unlimited cashback is the ASDA credit card, which pays 0.5% back in ASDA vouchers.
Both the American Express and Visa cards compare OK with this, even at my (very conservative) 0.75p per mile valuation.
Other points to note
American Airlines is not an Amex Membership Rewards partner, so you cannot collect AA miles via that route as an alternative to this card. (One option is to transfer to Starwood Preferred Guest and then to American, but the rate is only 1 : 0.625, even assuming you transfer in chunks of 20,000 SPG points.)
The only alternative credit card sign-up for collecting American Airlines miles is the Starwood Preferred Guest American Express card. This has a sign-up bonus of 10,000 SPG points (converts to 10,000 AA miles). My review of the Starwood Amex is here.
If you did need to top-off an AA account to reach a specific target, you could also transfer miles from a hotel programme or do a miles purchase – AA runs regular promotions where it sells miles at a discount to the regular rate.
Remember that the American Airlines cards have an FX fee of almost 3% for foreign currency transactions. You may want to consider getting a separate card to use abroad which charges no foreign exchange fees. I recommend the Lloyds Avios Rewards card which also earns Avios points – even on your 0% FX transactions! It comes with a 4,500 Avios sign-up bonus if I refer you. My review of the Lloyds Avios Rewards card is here.
The current sign-up bonus of 5,000 miles is OK for a free airline card. That said, 5,000 AA miles have little value on their own and the card is best suited to someone with existing AA miles or heavy card spending.
The earning rates are impressive. 1.5 miles per £1 on the Amex is as good as it gets at the moment on a free mileage card. The same goes for the Visa at 0.75 miles per £1.

I sold hundreds or maybe thousands of gallons of this oil when I worked at Mayflower Transit when it was located in Carmel, Indiana. All of the old school, 20-40 years on the road, and new truckers used this oil on their rigs and most changed their oil at 10K miles but some would go 20K -40K miles on one ten gallon Rotella 15W40 oil change.
Some guys in the service shop used the same Rotella 15W40 on their pick-up trucks, year round. Good all around oil for all heavy duty applications.

Billy Joe Armstrong, star of festival favourites Green Day, has launched an online petition protesting against future war with Iraq.

"Wherever two or more are gathered in My name,
I am there among you."
Every community exists for the common good. As this community exists for the sake of liberal education, truth is the good at which it aims. As it aims at Catholic liberal education, supernatural Truth is its object. Laws and rules exist to direct the community to the good for which it exists. In a Christian community these rules should be animated by the two great commandments: love of God and, consequently, love of neighbor.
The rules of a college are analogous to those of a family. Education is, primarily, the parental work, and all education is an extension of that work. Education and the rules related to it aim not to make the young dependent, but precisely independent – that is, knowing and responsible people, capable of making the judgments required of free men.
There should be little need to emphasize the importance of following the rational good for students who wish to study in the Thomas Aquinas College program. It would be inconsistent to seek high and serious things in class and live outside of class by unruled appetites.
A student's conduct, bearing, dress, and cleanliness signify his own character and express his esteem for the institution and its other members. His conduct on and off campus will reflect on the College.
Thomas Aquinas College is a Catholic college and, therefore, requires all students to abide by the Catholic Church's moral teachings together with the Rules of Residence and the customs of the College. Students are asked to reflect carefully upon these standards and rules. The College is aware that bureaucratic devices and rules are no substitute for mutual trust, good faith, and courtesy among students, faculty, and staff, and that they will not automatically guarantee willing compliance. On the other hand, it is essential that social order and good habits be achieved and maintained if the purpose of the College is to be achieved. The insistence that students measure up to these standards is, in the last analysis, a discipline designed to foster such order and encourage proper habits. The reward can be the experience of living in a civilized community.
When these canons are violated, the College has the right to dismiss a student at any time. Since misconduct off campus can harm the reputation of the College, interfere with the climate of learning, and indicate that a student is not suited to the program, such behavior also is subject to disciplinary action.
The College has the authority to determine how these general rules are to be applied in specific cases and to impose sanctions for violations of the rules. Disciplinary sanctions may include mandatory community service hours, suspension of privileges (e.g., computer resource privileges, or parking privileges), fines, restriction to campus, disciplinary probation, and expulsion. The violation of a campus restriction or disciplinary probation may result in expulsion. Actions which gravely disrupt the campus order, such as entry into the residence halls of the opposite sex, the use of alcohol on campus, the illegal use of narcotics, or sexual misconduct will normally entail expulsion. The use of marijuana, even for medical purposes, is strictly forbidden for students both on and off campus.
In the case of alleged misconduct that may result in serious disciplinary action (such as disciplinary probation or expulsion), the Assistant Dean for Student Affairs will conduct an investigation and make a report to the Dean. If there is sufficient evidence of serious misconduct, the Assistant Dean will make a report to the Instruction Committee. If the matter is referred to the Instruction Committee for judgment, the student involved will first be consulted. The Instruction Committee will either discuss the matter itself, or appoint a subcommittee to determine the facts and make a recommendation. The Instruction Committee makes the final determination about serious disciplinary action and only hears appeals that present new and substantial information.
A student who is expelled may be required to leave the campus immediately. If the student is a minor, the Assistant Dean for Student Affairs will contact the parents or guardians and assist in making suitable arrangements for travel, storage, and accommodations for the student.
This Handbook is not and shall not be interpreted as a contract of any kind between the student and the College. While it does not anticipate doing so, the College reserves the right to change any provision or requirement during the student's term of residence.
By enrolling, a student and his parents recognize this right and agree to the policies set forth in this Handbook.
Students are required to live on campus unless granted special permission by the Dean to live off-campus. Since the purpose of the College is to establish a community of learning, such permission is not usually given.
Married students must live off-campus. Only with special permission from the Dean may a married student live in a residence hall.
Students are expected to show due regard for the rights, privileges, and tastes of others. Residence halls, designed primarily for study and rest, require order and reasonable quiet. Rooms for social purposes are available in St. Joseph Commons. St. Bernardine Library, the dining area of St. Joseph Commons, and the classrooms are available for study.
Here, as in any community, it is important to recognize and respect proper boundaries. This includes a respect for the privacy of offices and confidential information. This also includes the recognition of what is and is not one's own. Theft in the dorm or anywhere, intrusion into offices or other private space, and purloining of confidential information all erode the very basis of our community and cannot be tolerated; these, or similar, actions will be subject to expulsion.
The end of any community is best achieved when the members of that community are animated by friendship and mutual trust. This is especially so in the kind of community the College aims to establish. The importance of classroom discussion, the intensity of the academic program, and the end towards which we aim—supernatural Truth—all require an unusual degree of friendship and mutual trust. This is the reason why the College relies on student Prefects, acting in conjunction with and by the authority of the Dean and the Assistant Dean, to maintain and enforce the rules and standards of the College. The College trusts students to follow the rules and to be forthright and cooperative with the Prefects.
The moral atmosphere essential to intellectual pursuits is everyone's concern. This atmosphere is promoted most of all by exemplary personal conduct. If a student becomes aware of serious misconduct, he should notify a Prefect, the Assistant Dean, or the Assistant to the Assistant Dean (Resident Assistant).
Residence Hall Visitation
Men's and women's residence hall areas, including patios and courtyards, are always off limits to the opposite sex; this restriction applies to holidays and summer vacations as well as the academic year. Porches of St. Katharine and St. Bernard Halls may be used by both men and women as long as they do not disturb those who have rooms near the front door. With permission of a Prefect, exceptions to the residence hall visitation rules are made at the beginning or end of the academic year for purposes of moving boxes or luggage in and out of residence halls.
Alcohol and Drugs
At some social functions, the College will serve alcohol to students who are of legal age. The possession or use of alcohol outside of these functions is strictly forbidden on campus and may entail expulsion from the program. The possession or use of illegal drugs is strictly forbidden and may entail expulsion from the program.
The College also reserves the right to dismiss a student from the program for any serious incident or any repeated incident of an intoxicated or drugged state of behavior, for behavior creating a safety hazard to other persons, or for behavior that seriously impedes the legitimate activities of the College community.
Any alcohol purchased as a gift, received as a gift, or intended for the off-campus use of those of legal age must be stored by a Prefect.
The College strongly disapproves of off-campus use of alcohol by those under legal age because it violates the civil law and harms the College's reputation. Infractions of this alcohol and drug policy may be brought to the attention of a student's parent(s) or guardian.
The residence halls are locked at 11:00 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and at 1:00 a.m. on Friday and Saturday nights. Students are to be in their residence halls by these times. In special cases students can be admitted later by prior arrangements with the residence hall Prefect. These arrangements must be made at least 24 hours before the scheduled event. Since this requires that the Prefect stay up to admit a latecomer, permission is given only for very good reasons.
Sign Out
Students are to sign out when they will be away from their residence hall overnight. Use of the sign-out sheet enables the College to ascertain quickly who is or is not in the residence hall in the event of fire or other emergency; this also facilitates the proper handling of phone calls and visitors.
Quiet Hours
At all times the residence halls and their immediate vicinity should be sufficiently quiet to permit study and rest. Conversations, radios, and stereos should not disturb those in adjoining rooms. As evening approaches, sounds which might not be noticed during the day more readily disturb study and rest. Accordingly from 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. (11:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. on Friday and Saturday) a more complete quiet is preserved.
Proper dress is proportionate to the dignity of one's activities; coveralls, for instance, are suited to manual labor but not to divine worship. Those who dress improperly display an indifference towards nobler pursuits. Accordingly, more formal dress is to be worn throughout the week in the chapel, offices, classrooms, laboratories, dining hall, and library and for more formal Friday dinners and Sunday brunch. Women are to wear skirts or dresses of modest length with modest sleeve lines and necklines and dress shoes or sandals. Men shall wear slacks, shirts with collars, and dress shoes (or sandals) with socks.
In keeping with the College's intention to establish a dignified community of learning, extreme hairstyles and other such distracting bodily accoutrements are not permitted on campus.
School dress is always required in the chapel during Mass. At other times, less formal dress is allowed; however, sweat pants, tank tops, and shorts are never allowed in the chapel.
School dress is required in St. Thomas Hall until 3:30 pm. Footwear is always required in the chapel, offices, classrooms, laboratories, dining hall, and library.
A period of more casual dress begins after 3:30 pm on the weekdays; school dress is still required for dinner, Monday through Thursday. During the week those on work study are permitted to wear casual attire to meals if their job does not allow them to change prior to the meal; these students are to eat their meals in the coffee shop. Casual dress always includes footwear and shorts should be of modest length. Students not properly attired will be asked to change.
For swimming, women are to wear modest one-piece bathing suits or tankinis which fully cover the midriff. Students are allowed to sunbathe only on the patio of each of the residence halls. Men are to wear shirts on campus, even when they are working on the grounds crew. They are allowed to go without a shirt on the basketball court and athletic field (during men's sports), and when jogging on the outskirts of the campus.
Care of Students' Rooms
Students are expected to keep their rooms clean at all times. In St. Katharine and St. Bernard Halls, this includes the bathrooms. In residence halls having common bathrooms, the bathrooms and sinks will be cleaned on a regular basis by the staff.
Pictures and wall decorations may be hung with pushpins provided by the maintenance department. Students may not paint walls or woodwork. Wall decorations should be in keeping with the dignity of the intellectual and spiritual life of the College.
Furniture is not to be removed from or dismantled in the residence hall rooms. If a student wants to re-configure his modular furniture, he first must receive permission from the maintenance office. Students will be held liable for any damage to their rooms. Damage to the common areas of the dormitory will be charged to all of the students assigned to the dormitory unless a specific person assumes responsibility.
Except in residence hall kitchenettes, use of large refrigerators, hotplates, electric skillets, popcorn poppers, coffee makers, and other electrical appliances is specifically prohibited due to fire hazard. Students may have small refrigerators only after obtaining permission from the Assistant Dean. Students may keep non-perishable food in residence hall rooms, provided it is contained in metal, glass, or plastic canisters.
Smoking and the use of candles or incense are not permitted in any buildings to comply with fire code.
Campus Security
Trust is at the heart of liberal education and the College has very little experience of theft, vandalism, or other crimes by its own students. Off-campus intruders, however, are a very real possibility. It is necessary, therefore, to keep the fire doors locked at all times. These doors are to be used only in the case of an emergency or for moving in and out of the dorms at the beginning and end of the school year.
Room keys are available from the receptionist. A $10.00 deposit is required and will be refunded when the key is returned. Room keys must be returned at the end of the school year.
Students who are issued keys as part of their work study should never lend their keys to anyone, should not allow copies to be made, and should promptly return any keys in their possession when their responsibilities are at an end. Should a student come into possession of an unauthorized key, he should return it to the Business Office immediately.
Students are prohibited from bringing any kind of weapon to campus. The discharge of firearms on or about the campus is strictly forbidden.
Overnight accommodations (when available) are principally for the use of guests invited by the College as prospective students. Accommodations may also be provided for parents or other immediate family members who desire to visit the College. Other personal guests (e.g. alumni) may be accommodated briefly, if space is available.
Arrangements for meals and overnight stays for all visitors must be made at least one week in advance with the admissions office. Visits longer than four days are discouraged. The availability of accommodations should be verified and the length of the visit approved before plans for a visit are far advanced.
No visitor or day student is to sleep in a residence hall without permission from the College. Under unusual circumstances and with permission, a day student may remain on campus overnight, sharing the room of a resident student. Lounges and other areas are never to be used for sleeping.
Pets, except for fish and very small reptiles, are forbidden. Students are not to bring any animal to the campus, or encourage strays to stay; they become housekeeping problems and health hazards.
Care of the Lounges and Common Rooms
Care of the men's and women's residence hall lounges and the rooms in St. Joseph Commons is the responsibility of the students using them. Students should leave areas clean and orderly, turning off lights when not needed.
Furniture in the lounges or in other buildings is not to be appropriated for use elsewhere. The temporary removal of furniture from one area to another requires the approval of the maintenance staff, and furniture moved should be returned immediately to its proper place. Furniture in the student lounge is not to be rearranged.
Classrooms are not to be locked from the inside except in cases of emergency.
The Ferndale Ranch area is divided into two portions, one owned by Thomas Aquinas College, the other by Seneca Oil. Because the actual boundary lines are not clearly marked, the fences that run along the campus drive and the perimeter fence enclosing the lower campus (also known as "down below") are considered to be the campus boundaries.
Ranch Property
The ranch property adjacent to the campus is off limits. Driving motorized vehicles on ranch roads or on the access road to the National Forest is also prohibited. These restrictions are essential for respecting the private property of our neighbors and averting the very real possibility of forest fires. Violations will be treated very seriously.
The map above shows the location of the ranch property. (Click to enlarge.)
Forest Fires
Forest fires are a very real danger in southern California and the campus has been threatened periodically by fires in the Los Padres National Forest (the second largest forest fire in California history came very close to the campus in 2007). The risk of fire is greater during the fire season, especially during extreme conditions. It is imperative, therefore, that students observe the campfire restrictions posted by the Forest Service when camping or socializing in the Los Padres National Forest. These restrictions are strictly enforced, and ignoring them may result in fines or imprisonment. The failure to follow the fire restrictions also has the potential of starting a forest fire that could threaten the campus, cause millions of dollars in damages, and result in a legal liability.
Due to the potential fire hazard, any use of the fire pit or barbecue adjacent to the third pond must be approved by the Assistant Dean. For the same reason, the use of fireworks on campus, or in the national forest, is strictly forbidden.
Civil Law
The Civil Law is to be obeyed on and off campus.
Classroom Decorum
It is customary for the students to address one another in class as "Mister," "Miss," or "Misses" since this aids in keeping classroom discussions objective and serious.
In keeping with the dignity, seriousness, and formal character of classes, there is to be no consumption of food or beverages, or chewing gum.
Video and audio recording as well as the photographing of any tutorial, seminar, don rag, or thesis defense are all prohibited.
Electronic Texts
Kindles and other electronic text readers are not to be used in the classroom. While these devices have been extremely useful in the field of research, it is not clear that they provide the best format for reading and thinking about a text in preparation for a class discussion. On the other hand the use of real texts works very well for our purposes, and it would seem foolish to let go of this practice lightly. There is a discipline that goes into preparing to discuss a paper text. The student must make an effort to read carefully and digest the reading, so as to be able to locate pertinent texts. He must attempt to grasp and retain the reading as a whole. Electronic search functions provide an easy opportunity for the student to become lazy in reading. This technology can also make it more difficult to stay focused on the text under consideration, when so many other texts are readily available and can be searched easily for corresponding texts.
Cell Phones
Cell phones can be useful tools for communicating, but they can also be a distraction from the intellectual life. It is important to ensure that cell phones do not detract from the dignity of the academic program. Cell phones have no role to play in the classroom; if you choose to bring your cell phone to class you are responsible to ensure that it does not emit sound or light or in any other way distract you or others from the discussion. Cell phones should be turned off during examinations. Ringers should be silenced during lectures and concerts, in the library and the chapel.
In accordance with the College's policy to limit Internet access to that provided in the library and the student mail room, the use of cell phones, or cell phone service, to access the Internet is prohibited.
Movies, Television, and Video Games
To foster and preserve the dignity of the intellectual life, the College does not permit the use of televisions or video players in student rooms. On weekends from 3:30 p.m. Friday until dinnertime Sunday, students may watch movies in the residence hall commons or study rooms, but only with prior permission from a Prefect.
Students may play video games in their rooms on weekends from 3:30 p.m. Friday until dinnertime Sunday.
Computer Networks
The College provides e-mail access in the dormitories and Internet access in the library and student mailroom by means of the College's computer network. Tapping into, or tampering with, the College's network or telephone wiring is strictly prohibited. In keeping with the College's aim of maintaining a community of learning in the dormitories, students are not permitted to set up their own computer networks either by means of wireless technology or by running network cables from room to room.
Internet and Computer Services
The College provides computer resources for three purposes: research, communication, and retail business transactions (such as purchasing airline tickets). To allow for the quietude and rest that contemplation requires, the College has no interest in promoting widespread use of the Internet for entertainment purposes. Several computers are available for student use in the library and the student mail room. Some residence halls are equipped with computers which students may use to access their college email accounts. Internet access, however, is limited to the library and mail room. The use of cell phones, cell phone service, or any other wireless service, to access the Internet is prohibited. Students are welcome to bring their own computers. If they bring laptops, they may request to have their computers configured to access the Internet in the library and in the student mail room (they should bring their own Ethernet cable and their computer should be equipped with an Ethernet port).
It is essential that each user exercise responsible and ethical behavior when using the College's computer resources. The following policy applies to all individuals who have been granted use of the College's computer resources and summarizes the principles that govern the appropriate use of those resources. Because it is impossible to anticipate all of the methods that individuals may employ to intentionally damage or misuse the College's computer resources, this policy focuses on some of the general regulations that govern the appropriate use of the College's computer resources.
The following list of inappropriate uses of the College's computer resources is not comprehensive, but illustrates some of the responsibilities that users must abide by when using the College's computer resources.
- Transmitting information that contains obscene, indecent, lewd, or lascivious material or other material that explicitly or implicitly refers to sexual conduct or contains profane language.
- Creating, modifying, executing, or retransmitting any computer program or instructions intended to (1) obscure the identity of the user of the College's computer resources or alter the system used to identify the user of the College's computer resources, or (2) subvert or render ineffective the security or access control measures on the College's computer resources.
- Authorizing another individual to use a user's computer account or the College's computer resources. Users must take reasonable precautions, including password maintenance and file protection, to prevent unauthorized individuals from using their account and must not share their password with other users or unauthorized individuals.
- Communicating or using any password, personal identification number, credit card number, or other personal or financial information without the permission of its owner.
- Using the College's computer resources to gain unauthorized access to resources of this or other institutions, individuals, or organizations. Using false or misleading information for the purpose of obtaining access to unauthorized resources.
- Accessing, altering, copying, moving, or removing information, proprietary software, or other files from the College's computer resources without authorization.
- Copying, downloading or distributing copyrighted materials, including unauthorized peer-to-peer file sharing, without the authorization of the copyright owner is illegal and may result in civil and criminal penalties, including fine and imprisonment. Copyrighted materials include, but are not limited to, copyrighted music, films and software.
- Using the College's computer resources in a manner that adversely affects other users, including impairing the College's computer resources or the resources of other institutions, individuals, or organizations by intentionally or negligently introducing any "Trojan-horse", "virus", or "worm" program.
- Using the College's computer resources for commercial gain or commercial purposes not officially approved by the College.
- Using the College's computer resources for online gambling.
- Initiating or propagating electronic "chain letters" or other activities that excessively increase the load of the College's computer resources, e.g., printing excessive copies of documents, files, or images.
- Violating laws or participating in the commission or furtherance of any crime or any other illegal purpose, e.g., pirating images, music, or software.
Thomas Aquinas College acknowledges its obligation to respect the privacy of a user's computer files and e-mail, but users should be sensitive to the inherent limitations of the College's computer resources—no computer security system can completely prevent unauthorized individuals from accessing a user's computer files or e-mail.
The College maintains the right to monitor and access a user's computer files, e-mail, and use of computer resources when it is necessary to protect the integrity, security, and proper functioning of the College's computer resources, when it is necessary to enforce this policy, or when it is required by law. The College will notify users of such monitoring provided that it will not compromise the College's investigation or the investigation of an appropriate law enforcement agency.
Any violation of this policy, other related College regulations, or federal or state laws may result in immediate suspension of computer resource privileges. The College's authorities and/or the appropriate law enforcement agency will determine other possible disciplinary or legal action. Nothing in this policy supersedes existing College regulations and policies and/or state or federal law.
Summary of Civil and Criminal Penalties for Violation of Federal Copyright Laws
Copyright infringement is the act of exercising, without permission or legal authority, one or more of the exclusive rights granted to the copyright owner under section 106 of the Copyright Act (Title 17 of the United States Code). These rights include the right to reproduce or distribute a copyrighted work. In the file-sharing context, downloading or uploading substantial parts of a copyrighted work without authority constitutes an infringement.
Penalties for copyright infringement include civil and criminal penalties. In general, anyone found liable for civil copyright infringement may be ordered to pay either actual damages or "statutory" damages affixed at not less than $750 and not more than $30,000 per work infringed. For "willful" infringement, a court may award up to $150,000 per work infringed. A court can, in its discretion, also assess costs and attorneys' fees. For details, see Title 17, United States Code, Sections 504, 505.
Willful copyright infringement can also result in criminal penalties, including imprisonment of up to five years and fines of up to $250,000 per offense.

Parking and Traffic
Vehicles are to be operated safely and at reasonable speeds on campus, but never faster than 25 mph. There is to be no student vehicular traffic on the lower campus. Driving or parking on lawns or paths is prohibited. Student parking is restricted to the student parking lots located at the north end of the campus and by Blessed Serra Hall. Students are not to park in the designated faculty parking areas adjacent to the residence halls or behind the Commons building. Parking behind the Commons is permitted only for loading and unloading vehicles and for washing cars.
The State of California requires all drivers to have liability insurance and to carry written evidence of insurance in their vehicle at all times. The College, therefore, requires all students who have vehicles on campus to maintain liability insurance. Evidence of insurance must be presented when registering the vehicle with the Business Office.
All student vehicles must be registered with the Business Office. Students will be issued parking permit stickers during registration or at other times by the Business Office. Be sure that the vehicular information is included on your Registration Form. If a student should change vehicles, he must update his file in the Business Office with the license number, make, and model of the new vehicle.
The privilege of keeping a vehicle on campus may be revoked when the rules are not observed. A student who registers a vehicle with the College is responsible for its proper use. Vehicles not registered with the College may be towed away.
"One of the things I'm most grateful for is the attitude the College instills toward learning, an attitude of not being afraid to try something that most people would say is difficult, and instead working through it."
