Students will NOT be held accountable to the Cell Phone policy when this system is used while they are on campus .

On rare occasions , the administration may need to modify the normal campus schedule . In those instances , information may be sent out through a variety of means to include the emergency notification system , email , or electronic bulletin boards depending on the nature and urgency of the schedule change . Students may be instructed to return late , return in the morning , or notified that the college is closed .

Mr . Williamson recognized that a career in the trades is physical work and a student who leaves Williamson physically fit is better positioned for success in his field . As part of the Founding Deed , Mr . Williamson directed that , “ the physical training of the scholars shall be carefully attended to that they shall have proper exercise and recreation , so that … each one may grow up with a sound mind in a sound body .” As such , the college is committed to providing programming and policies to achieve this directive .
