The provisions of this student handbook are not to be regarded as an irrevocable contract between the student
and TMC. Student handbooks, catalogs and bulletins of educational institutions are usually prepared by faculty committees and administrative officers for the purpose of furnishing students with appropriate
information. This student handbook has attempted to present information regarding student rights and responsibilities, ground rules, and regulations of the college for the 2025-26 academic year in an as accurate
and up-to-date manner as possible. This does not, however, preclude the possibility of changes taking place during the academic year. If such changes occur, they will be publicized through normal channels such as emails, the TMC website, and our message boards.
