TACOMA COMMUNITY COLLEGE – 2015-2016 FINAL EXAM SCHEDULE Final exam schedules for FALL, WINTER, and SPRING are shown below. As in the past, it is expected that all exams will be held according to this schedule. Requests for exceptions must be in writing and approved in advance by the appropriate dean/division manager. No regular day classes are held during the final exam period. Some final exams may be scheduled for a weekday on which the class does not normally meet. The final exam days are contract work days for faculty and are considered instructional days during which teaching and learning activities continue to take place. Faculty should be available to confer with students as appropriate. It is suggested that faculty who are assigning final papers or projects may choose to collect them at the time of the scheduled final exam. If not, be clear with your students (and any college staff involved) as to exactly where and when any such final assignments are to be submitted.
