student center rules
- the student center is considered private property and therefore not open to the public. you must be a current mcc student, staff, or faculty in order to be present in the center.
- please be polite and refrain from overly loud, vulgar conversation. students are all expected to follow mcc’s student code of conduct.
- clean up after yourself. this includes wiping down the microwave and kitchenette area after use, disposing of cups, lids, napkins, and other items that you are no longer using.
- do not eat other people’s items in the fridge!
- stay out of the cabinets (this is for the student attendants and student life coordinator)
- learn the rules for billiards and how to not damage the felt on the pooltable.
- turn off tv when not in use.
