On Oct. 3, 1999, Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery was dedicated as the 117th national cemetery within the Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration.

When fully developed, this 982-acre cemetery will provide 400,000 burial spaces.

Military Funeral Honors
On Aug. 26, 2003 the Abraham Lincoln National Cemetery inaugurated an all-volunteer Memorial Squad to assist in military honors. When possible, the melodic sound of live Taps can be heard echoing throughout the serene cemetery grounds, otherwise, electronic Taps are available at three committal shelters. The DOD program, 'Honoring Those Who Served,' calls for funeral directors to request military funeral honors on behalf of the veteran's family. When requested, a detail consisting of at least two uniformed military persons, with at least one being a member of the veteran's branch of service provide folding and presentation of the U.S. flag and can also play Taps, either by a high-quality recording or a bugler.

Why take an online or web-based course?

Online courses provide you with the flexibility that you need to get coursework completed toward your degree. MAC offers both fully online web courses and hybrid courses, which require scheduled in-person class meetings.

Should I take a web class?

Not sure if you're ready for a web class? Take this short Online Readiness Quiz to see how prepared you are for a web course.

What does MAC offer online?

Each semester, MAC offers more courses online. You can check out MAC's current list of online courses, which includes online and hybrid courses, on the Course Search tab in MyMAC.

Web courses will have a 'W' in the course code. For example: AGR 1550 AAW1.

Under schedule, the course will be indicated as Web/Internet.

Hybrids will have an 'H' in the course code. For example: ADN 1572 AAH1.

Under schedule, some hybrids will have specific days and times for meetings, while others will indicate Hybrid Course. In that case, students will get a schedule of meetings from their instructor at the first class meeting.

What kind of Internet connection do I need?

Online courses work best with a high-speed internet connection. Files with graphics, video and audio can become quite large and may not download with slower connections. If you are restricted to a slow Internet connection, you may want to consider other course options or at least develop an alternate plan for accessing and posting course materials. Another option is to use the MAC computer lab.

Many wireless hotspots (Panera, McDonald's, public libraries, etc.) are now available for properly equipped mobile computers. These locations may be an alternate option, but should not be the primary method used for taking online courses.

Are any campus meetings required?

If the class is fully online, there will not be any class meetings, although instructors may ask you to take a proctored exam in an approved physical location.

If you are enrolled in a hybrid class, you will meet in person up to half of the class time. Your instructor will provide a schedule of class meetings during the first class session.

How do I get started?

It's easy! First, click the link at www.MineralArea.edu labeled 'Apply Now!'.

All students are expected to be honest and behave with integrity. There will be no questions asked nor explanations accepted for plagiarism, cheating, or any other acts that suggest that you have not fulfilled your responsibilities. Any evidence of academic dishonesty and plagiarism may result in a grade “F” for the course or for a particular activity. All instances of dishonest behavior will also be reported to the college administration.

Netiquette

Website

Avoid language that may come across as strong and offensive. Language can be easily misinterpreted in written communication. If a point must be stressed, review the statement to make sure that an outsider reading it would not be offended; then post the statement. Humor and sarcasm may easily be misinterpreted as well, so try to be as matter-of-fact and professional as possible. This includes language of the internet---e.g., do not write using all capital letters because it may appear as shouting.

An online classroom is still a classroom. Although the course is virtual, appropriate classroom behavior is still mandatory. Respect for fellow students and the instructor is as important as ever whether communicating via email or the discussion forums. For example, when communicating via the discussion forum, many different ideas are presented. While you may not always agree with some of them, it is nonetheless important to respect these differences.

No inappropriate material. Do not forward any chain letters, jokes, pornographic material, or use the discussion forums for personal communications.

Breach of Netiquette. Any violations of these policies may result in any number of negative consequences, including zero credit for an assignment or forum posting, a lowered course grade, “F” grade for the course and/or academic probation. If a violation occurs, the instructor may contact the student for a face-to-face meeting and/or referral to the academic dean’s office for disposition.

Cheating and Plagiarism: For most online classes, forms of cheating and plagiarism include, but are not limited, to the following examples:

  • Online exams are not necessarily “open book” and you may be expected to answer questions without use of textbook and/or notes
  • Having someone other than the student take an online exam
  • Attempting to supply a test question to another student
  • Collaborating with others, by any means, during an exam or exam window
  • Attempting to download or distribute any exam materials to others
  • Making a false claim of a loss of power or disruption of server connection to be allowed a retake
  • Exceeding the posted time limit
  • Attempting to save a test and resume taking at a later time
  • Copying whole papers or passages from another student or from any source
  • Allowing another student to copy or submit one’s work
  • Buying or obtaining a paper from any source and submitting that paper or passages as one’s own
  • Pasting a passage from the internet or any computer source into one’s paper or forum posting
  • Submitting a paper that one wrote during a previous semester or from another class
  • Improper citation of any sources used—e.g., failure to quote or attribute passages to actual source
  • Fabricating or falsifying a bibliography
