Core Values Vision Bellevue Community College will continue to be the region’s college of choice, based on its excellence, innovation, and national recognition for exemplary programs. We, the Board of Trustees, faculty, staff, and administration of Bellevue Community College, place students at the center of all we do and support and promote the excellence of their efforts. We affirm and embody pluralism; value collaboration and shared decision making; and honor creativity and innovation. We consider it our duty to anticipate changing demands in education and welcome the opportunity to shape its future. We acknowledge our responsibility to society and embrace the belief that widespread access to excellent postsecondary education is the cornerstone of a democratic society. Mission Bellevue Community College is a comprehensive and innovative college that advances the life-long educational development of its students consistent with their needs, interests, and abilities while strengthening the economic, social, and cultural life of its diverse community. The college accomplishes this purpose by providing high-quality, flexible educational programs and services that are academically, geographically, and financially accessible. Committed to teaching and learning excellence and employee growth and development, the college nurtures a supportive environment throughout its programs and services. College Announcements Changes in Schedule Information BCC makes this information as accurate as possible at the time of publication.

What do we offer at BCC? Nothing less than the chance to Become Exceptional – to exceed expectations and gain skills and experience to help you stand out from the crowd. For example: ■ ■ ■ ■ The chance to get to know your instructors in small classes and to engage them in extended discussions can help you shine academically. Our graduates are critical thinkers. On-the-job experience through our internship program can help you get noticed in the job-applicant crowd. Leadership skills developed in student government and scores of interest clubs can help distinguish you throughout your career. And the way we design our career training programs – based on advice from business and industry – means we can help you stand out as ready for emerging job requirements, not just the current ones. BCC grads are ready to work in changing environments. So seize the opportunity! Become Exceptional at BCC! www.bellevuecollege.edu How to Use This Schedule To make the credit course schedule a little easier to use, we have reordered the pages. Now you’ll find credit course listings starting up front on page 8, followed by Distance Education classes, Flexible Learning Options and Eastern Washington University offerings, while information about registration, tuition, grades, student services and the Career and Women’s Centers can be found on pages 58-59. All the information you’re familiar with is still here, so check the Table of Contents in front or the Index in back. Once-a-Week Classes Save Travel, Gasoline Want to save gas and drive less? Consider once-a-week evening classes. BCC offers many of the most popular classes – such as English, History, Psychology, and many others – in this convenient format. Classes meet only one evening per week, and the rest of the work is done online or through telecourses. So you get the best of both worlds: classroom interaction and the freedom of online and telecourse study. Plus, you save on gas and reduce the hassle of fighting traffic. Check pages 48-50 for a listing of these great opportunities. BCC Highlights Best of BCC… Student Poll We asked our current students to offer newcomers some tips on the Best of BCC.
