Campus Regulations Electronic Devices in Classroom Policy (Cell Phones, iPods, Bluetooth Headsets, etc.) All personal electronic devices (cell phones, iPods, Bluetooth headsets, etc.) must be turned off and put away during class.

This policy also applies to BCCC off-campus sites. Conduct Students enrolled in Beaufort County Community College (BCCC) are expected to conduct themselves as responsible adults. Failure to do so may result in expulsion.
