Video and/or Audio Recording

Video and/or audio recording in a college class are strictly regulated by State and Federal law, in addition to Polk State College Policy. Improper video and/or audio recordings made in a college classroom, or the improper sharing of such recordings, exposes the recording student to serious potential legal liability. Students are strongly cautioned to make informed choices in compliance with State and Federal law, as well as College Policy, when debating whether to make audio and/or video recordings in class.

An enrolled student may record video and/or audio of a class lecture for personal educational use, including in support of disability accommodations. A lecture is defined as: a formal or methodical oral presentation, given by the instructor as part of a college course, that is intended to present information or teach enrolled students about a particular subject. A lecture may be presented live, online, or in-person by the course professor.

A lecture recording may not be shared or published without the written permission of the professor. All supportive disability accommodation-based audio and/or video lecture recording activity must receive prior written approval from the Polk State College Office of Disability Services and the course professor.

It is important to be respectful of students’ rights to privacy; with this in mind, College policy stipulates that students should not record peers during lectures, class discussions, student presentations, labs, group work, and private conversations. Recording a student without his or her consent could have legal consequences, including a possible violation of State and/or Federal law and the Polk State College Student Code of Conduct.

If a professor becomes aware of a violation of the student recording policy, he or she is able to address this through the College, including the assignment of sanctions (District Board of Trustees Rule 4.01 and Polk State Procedure 5028: Student Code of Conduct: Sanctions and Assignment of Penalties for Violations). This is in addition to other liabilities, as aforementioned.

COVID-19

Polk State College is committed to the health and safety of students, faculty, and staff. Members of the College community are expected to assume personal responsibility to keep themselves and others healthy and safe. Before coming to campus each day:

• Each student must self-screen for COVID-19 symptoms. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provides a list of COVID-19 symptoms (www.cdc.gov/coronavirus).
• A student who is experiencing illness or symptoms of COVID-19 should not come to campus. The student must notify his or her professor by email within one business day of the absence and should notify a healthcare provider if symptoms worsen.
• A student must self-report if he or she becomes ill with COVID-19, has COVID-19 symptoms, or has been in contact with someone who has tested positive for COVID-19. The student must also notify the College directly through the self-reporting tool on the Polk State webpage. The student is responsible for communicating his or her status with the professor should there be a need for isolation or quarantine similar to how they would address other illnesses and unforeseen conditions.

When on campus:

• The College strongly recommends that each student, whether vaccinated or unvaccinated, wear a mask or face covering while indoors on campus. A professor may offer office hours in various formats including face-to-face meetings, video conferencing, email, or telephone. The professor may require the student to wear a mask or cloth face covering during an office meeting. Any student who does not feel comfortable complying with this requirement may use other modes of communication to connect with the professor.
• Each student is strongly encouraged to practice social distancing while on campus, keeping at least six feet of separation from others when possible and avoiding crowded hallways, stairwells, and other enclosed spaces.
• Any student who is unvaccinated (or who has health concerns) should maintain six feet of social distance in classroom and lab settings, or work with the professor to arrange for special seating arrangements or accommodations (as possible).
• A student who is currently unvaccinated is strongly encouraged to get vaccinated. The College website lists information regarding on-campus vaccination events (polk.edu/vaccine). An unvaccinated student is also encouraged to follow the CDC’s guidance regarding protection from COVID-19 infection (www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/prevention.html).
• Any student who begins to feel ill or who experiences symptoms such as sneezing, coughing, or fever while on campus should immediately return home, notify his or her professor(s), and call a healthcare provider if symptoms worsen. Additionally, any student exhibiting these symptoms may be sent home by his or her professor and instructed to complete the COVID Reporting Tool.

In the interest of health and safety, an instructor has the right to ask any student who fails to comply with these requirements to leave class. If a student refuses to comply, per Polk State College Rule 4.01: Code of Student Conduct for Students and Student Organizations, the professor has the right to refer the non-compliant student to a Student Services administrator for disciplinary action and to cancel class for the day.

Guidance about how to prevent the spread of COVID-19 is available through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (www.cdc.gov/coronavirus). Additionally, Be the Solution: Polk State College’s Return to Campus Plan is available online and provides information about the College’s response to the public health crisis (www.polk.edu/campus-safety-security/covid-19). Each student is encouraged to direct questions about these requirements to a campus-based associate dean or a professor. The Executive Dean of Student Services, Dr. Pakowski, may be reached by email at lpakowski@polk.edu.
