Homecoming 2007: October 26 & 27

There's nothing like a weekend at Milligan to reconnect with old friends and to recapture the carefree enthusiasm of your college years. Homecoming is for everyone — alumni, students, faculty, staff and friends. Join us for a weekend that celebrates the people, events and places that make this community special.

Family Weekend
Family Weekend is an opportunity for parents and siblings to see what college life is like, as well as to tour and explore the Tri-Cities area. On-campus events are planned throughout the weekend, but families are encouraged to do some sightseeing in the local area, as well. Family Weekend is February 8-10.

When to arrive on campus...

All returning students are to arrive to campus on Sunday, August 19. Students who arrive prior to their designated time will have a daily charge of $20 added to their student account. Additionally, any early arrival must be pre-approved by the Student Development Office. The telephone number is 423.461.8760. Returning students who arrive earlier than this will NOT be permitted to stay in the residence halls unless they are involved in a school-related activity that requires them to arrive earlier and they have been approved by the Student Development Office. If the early arrival has not been pre-approved, students will not be allowed access to the dorm. We want to encourage students and their families to make their plans around the approved arrival dates. The first board plan meal for students NOT involved with orientation will be dinner on August 19. Bring your student ID card. If you must replace one, the cost is $5 (there is no replacement cost for a new card reflecting a change of status, address, or name).
Vehicles on campus

The use of a vehicle on campus is a privilege extended to the college community. Each motorized vehicle must be registered by the Student Development Office at the time you register for classes or in the Student Development Office after registration. Please have the following information when you register: license tag/plate number, color, make, model, and year of your car(s).

Each vehicle driven/parked on campus must be registered. Operators of these vehicles are expected to learn and following the driving/parking policies on campus (outlined in the Student Handbook). Violators of these policies are subjecting themselves to significant fines and loss of vehicle privileges. Fines range from $20 to $100 and must be paid within seven days in the Student Development Office or an additional fine of $10 will be added and the fine will be placed on the student's account. Receiving more than ten tickets can result in the loss of driving privileges on campus.
Plan now for Christmas

Does it seem strange to think about Christmas in July? Not if you are using the airlines over the holidays! Since exams continue through Thursday, December 13, you will want to make reservations for departure after this date. Please be sure that whoever is making your reservations is aware of the College calendar. No exceptions to the final exam schedule will be granted. Early airline flights—even because of an exceptionally good fare—will certainly not be an acceptable excuse.
Post Office information

The Post Office has made special arrangements to open Saturday, Aug. 18, from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m., to allow students to rent a post office box. Incoming freshmen and transfer students should complete the form enclosed in the new student mailing and return it to the postmaster during the summer. Students who do not complete the form should obtain a post office box application from a U.S. Post Office and have it completed in advance. Please have your driver's license with you.

The cost of a box is $26 a year, plus a $1 deposit per key. There is a two key limit.

All mail and packages sent through the U.S. Postal Service should be addressed to:

Student's Name
P.O. Box #
Milligan College, TN 37682

Please use your post office box number on all of your mail instead of a residence hall room to avoid confusion in delivery. Packages sent U.P.S. or other ground service should be addressed to Student's Name, Student's Residence Hall and Room Number, Milligan College Physical Plant, 130 Richardson Road, Milligan College, TN 37682.

IQ Web & Student Records

Students can view information about their academic record and student account in the college's student records database using the i.d. and password assigned to them for college network access. Among the information available to the students are semester class schedules, the college catalog, mid-term and final grades, unofficial transcripts, and charges and credits to the student's account.

Parents who claim students as “dependent” for income tax purposes may view students' grades by either (1) the student sharing i.d. and password with parents, allowing the parents to view the academic records online, or (2) the student completing a form available in the Registrar's Office authorizing grades to be mailed to parents. For additional information, contact the Registrar's Office at 423.461.8788.

Immunizations & Health Insurance

Milligan College recommends that all students be covered by health insurance while enrolled. If you are already covered by a group policy, you must furnish the name of the company and the number of the policy on the enclosed Health and Immunization Record and also have a physician complete the Health and Immunization form indicating he/she completed a required TB screening and the date, as well as the dates of the required 2 doses of the MMR vaccines. The other vaccines are recommended.
