About <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
A Brief History ... A Look Ahead<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> began as a technical institute under the jurisdiction of the Ohio Department of Education.<br />
The first classes were offered in Toledo on September 13, 1965 with less than 200 students. Two years later, in 1967,<br />
the Ohio Board of Regents chartered the <strong>College</strong> as a technical college. In 1983, <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> opened its<br />
Findlay-area campus at Cory and Davis streets in Findlay, Ohio.<br />
In 1994, the <strong>College</strong> was chartered as a comprehensive state community college with a district encompassing Lucas,<br />
Wood and Hancock counties, and parts of Ottawa and Sandusky counties.<br />
Since then, the <strong>College</strong> has emerged as a national leader in higher education due to skyrocketing enrollment, expanding<br />
program choices and new, state-of-the-art facilities.<br />
With 27 consecutive semesters of enrollment growth, the number of students served by the <strong>College</strong> has more than<br />
doubled since 1994. This academic year, the <strong>College</strong> offers more than 160 program areas to choose from, making it<br />
Northwest Ohio’s #1 Choice.<br />
The Center for Fine and Performing Arts represents the sixth new building added to the Toledo-area campus since 1994,<br />
joining the Fire Science/Law Enforcement Center, Library, Audio/Visual Classroom Center, Math/Science Center and<br />
Student Health and Activities Center.<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> offers even more promise with a bright future.<br />
In Fall Semester 2005, the new Findlay-area campus will open 1.5 miles east of Interstate 75, Exit 161 at the convergence<br />
of Township Road 212 and Bright Road.<br />
On the Toledo-area Campus, construction is under way for the Fire and Police Training Center for Homeland Security, a<br />
facility that will not only serve police, fire, military, maritime and medical personnel throughout Northwest Ohio but also<br />
the United States.

About <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> students come from all walks of life. Some students register right out of high school. Other<br />
students are older, having taken a break from school to start or raise a family. Still others are transfer students from<br />
another college or university and there are some students who return to school to increase their job skills.<br />
Each and every one of our students has a different story, a different life circumstance. In fact, it’s a safe bet that no two<br />
stories are alike. That’s OK. <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> faculty and staff members celebrate diversity and work diligently<br />
to help all students achieve their varied goals.<br />
We partner with business and industry leaders, local government officials and community organizations to ensure that we<br />
maintain high-quality standards. We tap their resources with you – the student – in mind.<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> wants to produce well-rounded, educated students who make Northwest Ohio a better place<br />
to work and live. A majority of our students live and work here, and so do a majority of our alumni. We live and work<br />
here, too – so we also have a vested interest to offer quality programs and top-notch instruction.<br />
Many faculty members bring real-world experiences and the knowledge gained from advanced degrees into the classroom.<br />
Besides traditional instructional methods, <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> is committed to alternative learning avenues such<br />
as the highly popular web courses and telecourses. For students who need a little extra assistance with their studies, we<br />
offer tutoring services and labs that will help with writing, math, reading, test-taking skills and more.<br />
Outside of academics, <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> features many recreational activities through the Student Health and<br />
Activities Center. Affectionately known as the SHAC, this facility is a great place to work out or get involved by joining<br />
one of the many student activity groups or clubs.<br />
And it all comes at a cost unmatched by any other college or university in Northwest Ohio.<br />

Assessment of Student Learning<br />
At <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>, assessment is a high priority in helping the <strong>College</strong> maintain a high-quality learning environment for all students.<br />
Purpose<br />
The purpose of student learning is to help the <strong>College</strong> determine the extent to which<br />
it is fulfilling its mission of educating students. Assessment allows the <strong>College</strong> to make<br />
improvements in program structure, course content and pedagogy.<br />
Assessing Student Learning at the Program Level<br />
Assessment at the program level provides a clear sense of what the program is designed to<br />
accomplish and what students who complete the program should know, understand, and be<br />
able to do when they graduate. Ultimately, the assessment process yields data that informs<br />
faculty and other decision-makers about relevant issues impacting the program, classroom<br />
instruction, and student learning. These data are used as a relevant foundation to support<br />
recommendations for program improvement.<br />
Student’ Role<br />
Students are assessed at all levels of institutional operations, including program and general<br />
education levels, at different points during their academic career at <strong>Owens</strong>. Typically,<br />
assessment is embedded within the teaching function of <strong>Owens</strong> and occurs during each<br />
student’s regular academic effort. The student’s role is very important in the assessment<br />
process. Indeed, student participation is an essential component of a successful program.<br />
Through participation and the demonstration of competence in course material as well as<br />
general education core competencies, the <strong>College</strong> is able to get a series of snapshots of a<br />
student’s performance.<br />
Assessing Student Learning at the Institutional Level<br />
Assessment monitors the competence of students, not just in terms of expertise in their<br />
program of study, but also with respect to the attainment of a general education. All degreeseeking<br />
students at <strong>Owens</strong> must complete a core of courses to provide a foundation that<br />
aids in the achievement of general education competencies in writing, oral communication,<br />
mathematics, and computer skills.<br />
In addition to the core competency categories mentioned above, the <strong>College</strong> has identified<br />
a number of other important components of its General Education Program. <strong>Owens</strong><br />
<strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> encourages and supports initiatives at the personal, departmental<br />
and college-wide levels that help students develop and augment those values and skills<br />
necessary for living in an increasingly complex and ever-changing global environment. These<br />
components of the <strong>College</strong>’s General Education Core include critical thinking, ethics, and<br />
diversity. Students will find additional information on the <strong>College</strong>’s General Education Core<br />
in this catalog.

an Enrollment Services Representative to learn about any<br />
requirements that exist in a new program. Students also may<br />
want to meet with the Department Chair. Returning students<br />

Residency and Reciprocity Students<br />
If a student is not an Ohio resident, the student will be charged<br />
out-of-state instructional and general fees. However, there are<br />
occasions when students who are not Ohio residents are eligible<br />
for in-state instructional and general fee rates. To find out if a<br />
student is eligible for in-state rates, refer to Residency and/or<br />
Reciprocity in the Academic Policies and Procedures section of<br />
this <strong>Catalog</strong>. To be considered for in-state rates, an application<br />
must be filed. All Monroe County residents must apply for<br />
reciprocity in order to determine eligibility. Applications for<br />
in-state rates are available in the Records Office (see page 69 for<br />
more information).<br />
Mature Citizens Admission Policy<br />
The Mature Citizens Program is designed for Ohio residents 60<br />
years of age or older who want to attend college. Instructional<br />
fees are waived for the mature citizen taking coursework on a<br />
non-degree (audit) and space available basis on or after the first<br />
day of the semester.<br />
Individuals enrolled in this program may take coursework<br />
for their own enjoyment, to learn a new skill, to explore new<br />
ideas, or to study those areas for which they never had time. All<br />
academic policies and procedures will apply to the mature citizen<br />
just as they do to all other students.<br />
Any mature citizen desiring credit for coursework, or who wishes<br />
to work for a degree, must pay all required fees. Students are<br />
responsible for any book and other expenses attached to the<br />
course they choose.<br />
Selective Service Registration<br />
The Ohio Legislature has enacted a law requiring all eligible<br />
students to register for Selective Service in order to be eligible<br />
for various benefits. <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> and all other<br />
public-assisted institutions are required to certify eligible<br />
students’ registration to the Ohio Board of Regents.<br />
Male students between the ages of 18 and 26 must register for<br />
Selective Service. Failure to register will result in the <strong>College</strong><br />
being required to charge out-of-state tuition and fees. Also,<br />
students not registered for Selective Service may not be eligible<br />
for federal and state financial aid. To register for Selective Service,<br />
visit any area post office, register at www.sss.gov, or call (847)<br />
688-6888.<br />
Selective Admissions<br />
Programs – A number of majors require additional test scores or<br />
materials to be sent to the <strong>College</strong>. When all required materials<br />
have been received by the <strong>College</strong>, students are considered<br />
for acceptance into these areas. Programs with additional<br />
requirements include all Health Technologies, Early Childhood<br />
Education and Post-Secondary Enrollment Option for high<br />
school students. Students applying for admission to any of these<br />
areas should refer to the specific major in the Program Areas<br />
section of this <strong>Catalog</strong>.<br />
Selective Health Admissions – Acceptance to <strong>Owens</strong><br />
<strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> does not ensure acceptance to a particular<br />
major. If you are majoring in any Health Technologies program,<br />
there are additional responsibilities that you must meet before<br />
you are evaluated and then formally accepted into the program.<br />
Be certain you understand the answers to the following three<br />
questions:<br />
1. What must I do to be evaluated for admission into a<br />
program/major in which I am interested?<br />

High school students may obtain early admission to <strong>Owens</strong><br />
<strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> under two different programs: Early<br />
Admission and Post-Secondary Enrollment Options Program.<br />
There are several important differences between these programs,<br />
including funding sources.<br />
Early Admission<br />
Early admission recognizes the desire for some high school<br />
students to experience college-level coursework, supplement their<br />
high school curriculum, enjoy courses of special interest and/or<br />
accumulate college credit. Coursework may be applied toward<br />
a program at <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> or be transferred<br />
to another college or university according to that institution’s<br />
transfer policy.<br />
Students currently enrolled in high school must submit the<br />
written consent of their high school guidance counselor or<br />
principal, college application and high school transcript. To<br />
be successful, early admission requires pre-admission advising.<br />
Students are required to meet with the <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> Enrollment Services staff prior to registration.<br />
Applicants 18 years of age and under, who have not graduated<br />
from high school or are not currently enrolled in high school,<br />
must meet with an <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> Enrollment<br />
Services Representative prior to registration. A college<br />
representative will contact the high school the applicant last<br />
attended.<br />
All early admission students must achieve certain scores on<br />
the <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> placement test, needed for<br />
placement into college-level coursework. Early admission<br />
students must achieve college-level scores on the reading, writing<br />
and math assessments. Applicants may waive COMPASS if their<br />
ACT scores are Math 20, Reading 22, and English 21 or SAT<br />
scores are Math 425 and Verbal 425.<br />
Students with exceptional circumstances or special needs<br />
who do not meet admissions standards may apply for special<br />
consideration with a letter of support from a high school<br />
principal or guidance counselor. These students and their<br />
parents are required to meet with an Enrollment Services<br />
Advisor.<br />
Advanced standing may be granted by articulation, proficiency<br />
examination, credit waiver or credit transfer.<br />
Post-Secondary Enrollment Options<br />
Under the Post-Secondary Enrollment Options Program (PSO),<br />
high school students may enroll for high school and/or college<br />
credit at <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>. Students may enroll in<br />
classes on the Toledo-area Campus and Findlay-area Campus<br />
or take selected Post-Secondary Enrollment classes at their<br />
home high schools. The same standards for entry into the Post-<br />
Secondary Enrollment Options Program apply for on-campus or<br />
off-campus classes.

Admission<br />
CONTACT US …<br />
The Post-Secondary Enrollment Options Program has two<br />
options:<br />
Option A<br />
Students may enroll for college credit only and the<br />
student is responsible for tuition, fees and books.<br />
Option B<br />
Students may enroll for high school and college credit.<br />
The state of Ohio and the student’s home school pay<br />
for the tuition, fees and book expenses. Students are<br />
responsible for all course expenses beyond their text and<br />
workbooks. This includes software, art and photography<br />
supplies, calculators, health and fitness expenses, and general<br />
school supplies.<br />
Textbooks are the property of the <strong>College</strong>. Presently, the <strong>College</strong><br />
allows Post-Secondary students to keep their textbooks at the<br />
conclusion of the course.<br />
To ensure a quality and successful experience for all students<br />
attending under this program, <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
has established the following requirements for eligibility to<br />
participate.<br />
Applicants must:<br />
1. Submit a completed application for the Post-Secondary<br />
Enrollment Options Program.<br />
2. Complete the eighth grade.<br />
3. Achieve certain scores on the <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
placement test, needed for recommendation into college-level<br />
coursework. For admission, post-secondary students must<br />
achieve college level scores on the reading assessment, as well as<br />
the math or the writing assessment. Applicants may waive the<br />
placement test if their ACT scores are Math 20, Reading 22 and<br />
English 21 or SAT scores are Math 425 and Verbal 425.<br />
4. Provide the High School Information Form indicating<br />
that the student and the parent or guardian has obtained the<br />
required counseling from the high school guidance counselor.<br />
5. A student may not enroll in any specific college course<br />
through the program if the student has taken high school<br />
courses in the same subject area as that college course and has<br />
failed to achieve a cumulative grade point average of at least 3.0<br />
on a 4.0 scale, or the equivalent in such completed high school<br />
courses.<br />
6. A student who does not maintain an overall grade point<br />
average of 2.0 or better is not permitted to enroll in<br />
sequential semesters. The student may reapply to the PSO<br />
Program by submitting a new high school information form<br />
and meeting with a PSO Advisor.<br />
7. Agree to abide by all the policies and procedures of <strong>Owens</strong><br />
<strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>, as well as any specific to this program.<br />
Students are required to participate in Post-Secondary<br />
Enrollment Options Program attendance reporting and<br />
academic progress reporting programs. Students and their<br />
parents are required to participate in special college orientation<br />
programs.<br />
8. The deadline to register for Fall Semester 2004 classes for<br />
PSO students is July 2, 2004. The deadline to register for<br />
Spring Semester 2005 classes for PSO students is December 17,<br />
2004.<br />
Admission to the program does not ensure acceptance into a<br />
specific program of study. (See the requirements listed under the<br />
program of interest or meet with the Department Chair or the<br />
Enrollment Services PSO Coordinator.)<br />

<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> welcomes students from other<br />
countries to apply for admission to the <strong>College</strong>. Acceptance<br />
to the <strong>College</strong> can be approved for either the Fall, Spring<br />
or Summer semesters. The <strong>College</strong> advises students coming<br />
from abroad to complete the admission process as soon as<br />

authorization. Admission requirements for international students<br />

for the first ID card.<br />
The Express Card account is non-interest bearing. Only the<br />
person pictured on the card is authorized to spend money from<br />
that account. <strong>Owens</strong> reserves the right to change the account<br />
terms and conditions at any time. If a change reduces limits<br />
or restricts the account holder’s rights under the terms and<br />
conditions, the <strong>College</strong> will give at least 20 calendar days notice<br />
by mail. However, if an immediate change is necessary for<br />
security reasons, the <strong>College</strong> may first make the change and then<br />
notify the account holder.<br />
Deposits: Currency deposits of $1 to $20 may be made at any<br />
Value Transfer Station, located in <strong>College</strong> Hall, the AVCC<br />
Hall, Student Health & Activities Center and the Findlay-area<br />
Campus Atrium. The use of credit cards and personal checks for<br />
deposits of $5 or more will be accepted during business hours<br />
at the Bursar’s Office. The maximum deposit by check is $30.<br />
A $10 charge will be assessed upon receipt of a returned check.<br />
Receipts will be provided for all purchases or deposits at cashier<br />
attended stations and for all deposits at Value Transfer Stations.<br />
Refunds: Cash withdrawals and credit card reimbursements from<br />
the Express Card Account are not permitted. Refunds by check<br />
are issued only after the account balance is $2 or more and a<br />
written request is received by the Bursar’s Office. Refund checks<br />
are written in the name of the account holder and mailed to the<br />
current address on file in the Records Office. Accounts with no<br />
activity over a 12-month period are considered inactive. Inactive<br />
accounts will be terminated regardless of balance.<br />
Questions on Deposits or Charges to a Cardholder Account<br />
and Error Resolution Procedures: If the account holder<br />
believes there is a discrepancy with a charge to the account, the<br />
department that processed the transaction should be contacted<br />
within 30 calendar days. Questions regarding deposits made on<br />
an account need to be brought to the attention of the Bursar’s<br />
Office during normal business hours.<br />
If there is a discrepancy on an account, the request to review the<br />
account must be in writing. The account holder will be requested<br />
to include the account holder name and account number,<br />
describe the transaction in question and explain as clearly as<br />
possible the discrepancy and indicate the date and dollar amount<br />
of the transaction. The department responsible for reviewing<br />
the discrepancy will notify the account holder in writing of any<br />
corrective measures put in place. Any errors found through the<br />
investigation will be immediately corrected.<br />
Reporting Lost, Stolen or Damaged Cards and Liability for<br />
Card Use: It is the cardholder’s responsibility to report a lost or<br />
stolen card immediately. If a card is lost or stolen, the account<br />
holder’s liability for unauthorized charges is limited to the funds<br />
available on the account. During business hours, notice may be<br />
given to the Records Office by phone, in person or in writing<br />
– Records Office, P.O. Box 10,000, Toledo, OH 43699-1947.<br />

Transfer Advising<br />
Students transferring from <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>:<br />
As a comprehensive community college, <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> works with baccalaureate-granting colleges and<br />
universities to assist students with a smooth transfer. Preparation<br />
for transfer begins the first semester at <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong>. The Enrollment Services Office is available to assist<br />
students with the transfer process. The following list of<br />
recommendations should assist those students:<br />
• Students should meet with an Enrollment Services Advisor<br />
• The Enrollment Services Office has transfer information<br />
available including catalogs, applications, scholarship<br />
information and transfer guides. Transfer information also is<br />
available on the Course Applicability System (CAS), located<br />
at www.transfer.org, where students can access transfer courseequivalents,<br />
telephone numbers of advisors, articulation<br />
agreements and campus visit information. Enrollment Services<br />
also provides information on campus visits, articulation<br />
agreements and contact information for advisors at the fouryear<br />
institutions.<br />
• Early in the academic experience at <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong>, students should meet with a representative at the<br />
institution to which they are planning to transfer. The <strong>Owens</strong><br />
<strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> Office of Enrollment Services has<br />
information on area institutions.<br />
• There is a difference between transferability and applicability<br />
of coursework between institutions<br />
• The institution receiving the transfer credit determines if<br />
their school has an equivalent course. If it does, the credit is<br />
transferable.<br />
• It is a separate issue whether this transfer credit applies to the<br />
student’s major at the receiving institution.<br />
• Be aware that remedial and developmental courses will not be<br />
applicable to any degree program.<br />
Students transferring to <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>:<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> strives to provide a smooth<br />
transition for students transferring in from other higher<br />
education institutions. The following list of recommendations<br />
may help those students:<br />
1. Students need to request an official copy of academic<br />
transcripts from all institutions attended, and the transcripts<br />
must be mailed directly to the Records Office. Academic credit<br />
is not posted to a student’s record until all official transcripts are<br />
received and evaluated by the Records Office.<br />
2. Students should bring a copy of academic transcripts from all<br />
institutions attended to their Enrollment Services appointments<br />
to assist in assessing academic readiness and transfer credit.<br />
3. Students seeking financial aid must request financial aid<br />
transcripts from all institutions attended, with transcripts<br />
mailed directly to the Financial Aid Office.<br />

Institutional Transfer<br />
The Ohio Board of Regents, following the directive of the Ohio<br />
General Assembly, developed a statewide policy to facilitate<br />
transferring credits from one Ohio public college or university<br />
to another. Since independent colleges and universities in Ohio<br />
may or may not be participating in the transfer policy, students<br />
interested in transferring to an independent institution are<br />
encouraged to check with the college or university of their choice<br />
regarding transfer agreements.<br />
Transfer Module<br />
The Ohio Board of Regents’ Transfer and Articulation Policy<br />
established the Transfer Module, which is a specific subset<br />
of the entire set of a college or university’s general education<br />
requirements. The Transfer Module contains 36-40 semester<br />
hours (or 54-60 quarter hours) of specified course credits in<br />
English, mathematics, arts and humanities, social and behavioral<br />
sciences, natural and physical sciences and interdisciplinary<br />
study.<br />
A Transfer Module completed at one college or university will<br />
automatically meet the requirements of the Transfer Module at<br />
the receiving institution, once the student is admitted. Students<br />
may be required, however, to meet additional general education<br />
requirements that are not included in the Transfer Module.<br />
A Transfer Module at <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> consists of<br />
a minimum of 36 semester hours of credit taken from each<br />
of the areas listed. Students will be expected to take at least<br />
the minimum number of course hours from each area. Hours<br />
beyond the required minimum may be taken from any of the<br />
other courses listed.<br />

Conditions for Transfer Admission<br />
Students meeting the requirements of the Transfer Module are<br />
subject to the following conditions:<br />
1. The policy encourages receiving institutions to give<br />
preferential consideration for admission to students who<br />
complete the Transfer Module and either the Associate of Arts<br />
or the Associate of Science degree. These students will be able to<br />
transfer all courses in which they received a passing grade of D<br />
or better. Students must have an overall grade point average of<br />
2.0 to be given credit for the Transfer Module.<br />
2. The policy also encourages receiving institutions to give<br />
preferential consideration for admission to students who<br />
complete the Transfer Module with a grade C or better in each<br />
course and 90 quarter hours or 60 semester hours. Students<br />
must have an overall grade point average of 2.0 to be given<br />
credit for the Transfer Module and only courses in which a C or<br />
better has been earned will transfer.<br />
3. The policy encourages receiving institutions to admit on a<br />
non-preferential consideration basis students who complete the<br />
Transfer Module with a grade of C or better in each course and<br />
less than 90 quarter hours or 60 semester hours. These students<br />
will be able to transfer all courses in which they received a<br />
grade of C or better. Admission to a given institution, however,<br />
does not guarantee that a transfer student will be automatically<br />
admitted to all majors, minors or fields of concentration at that<br />
institution. Once admitted, transfer students shall be subject<br />
to the same regulations governing applicability of <strong>Catalog</strong><br />
requirements as all other students. Transfer students will be<br />
given the same class standing and other privileges as native<br />
students on the basis of the number of credits earned. All<br />
residency requirements must be successfully completed at the<br />
receiving institution prior to granting a degree.<br />
Responsibilities of Student<br />
In order to facilitate transfer with maximum applicability of<br />
transfer credit, prospective transfer students should plan a course<br />
of study that will meet the requirements of a degree program at<br />
the receiving institution. Specifically, students should identify<br />
early in their collegiate studies an institution and major to which<br />
they desire to transfer. Furthermore, students should determine<br />
if there are language requirements or any special course<br />
requirements that can be met during the freshman or sophomore<br />
year. This will enable students to plan and pursue a course of<br />
study that will articulate with the receiving institution’s major.<br />
Students are encouraged to seek further information regarding<br />
transfer from both their advisor and the college or university to<br />
which they plan to transfer.<br />
Appeal Process<br />
A multi-level, broad-based appeal process is required to be<br />
in place at each institution. A student disagreeing with the<br />
application of transfer credit by the receiving institution shall<br />
be informed of the right to appeal the decision and the process<br />
for filing the appeal. Each institution shall make available to<br />
students the appeal process for that specific college or university.<br />
If a transfer student’s appeal is denied by the institution after<br />
all appeal levels within the institution have been exhausted, the<br />
institution shall advise the student in writing of the availability<br />
and process of appeal to the state-level Articulation and Transfer<br />
Appeal Review Committee. The Appeal Review Committee<br />
shall review and recommend to institutions the resolution of<br />
individual cases of appeal from transfer students who have<br />
exhausted all local appeal mechanisms concerning applicability of<br />
transfer credits at receiving institutions.<br />
Students wishing to appeal an institutional decision involving<br />
the application of the Ohio Board of Regents Transfer and<br />
Articulation Policy should refer to the <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> Student Appeals Policy. (See page 71 for more<br />
information.)

<strong>College</strong> incurred in pursuit of collecting any outstanding balance<br />
will be assessed to the student account.<br />

due dates are available at the Bursar’s Office.<br />
Students receiving financial aid are advised to carefully review the<br />
financial aid information provided by the Financial Aid Office.<br />
Compliance with the deadlines will help ensure prompt receipt<br />
of financial aid, less any amount due to the <strong>College</strong>.<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> accepts payment in the form of<br />
cash, checks, MasterCard, VISA and DISCOVER credit cards.<br />
The <strong>College</strong> also accepts the above credit cards for web credit<br />
card payments via the Internet. A $30 collection fee plus bank<br />
charges are assessed for any check returned unpaid by any bank.<br />
The <strong>College</strong> also enters into contracts to directly bill employers<br />
of <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> students, or other third parties,<br />
for tuition and fees. For more information, contact the Bursar’s<br />
Office.<br />
Deferred Payment Plan<br />
The Deferred Payment Plan offers eligible students the<br />
opportunity to defer payment of tuition and fees over a fourmonth<br />

month period for summer semester.<br />
Tuition and fees covered by the Plan include …<br />
• Instructional<br />

Refund of Fees<br />
Refunds of tuition and other refundable fees, less any amount<br />
owed, will be made on the following basis for the first four weeks<br />
of 16-week classes for Fall and Spring Semesters: 1<br />
1. Credit hours dropped prior to the beginning, or during the<br />
first five class days 2 , of either semester - 100% of tuition and<br />
fees will be refunded.<br />
2. Credit hours dropped during the second week (6th - 10th<br />
class days) of either semester - 70% of tuition and fees will be<br />
refunded.<br />
3. Credit hours dropped during the third week (11th - 15th<br />
class days) of either semester - 60% of tuition and fees will be<br />
refunded.<br />
4. Credit hours dropped during the fourth week<br />
(16th - 20th class days) of either semester - 40% of tuition and<br />
fees will be refunded.<br />
There will be no refunds of tuition and fees for students who<br />
drop credit hours after the fourth week of classes.<br />
Students should be aware that schedule changes, either adding<br />
or dropping credit hours, might affect fees. Students may wish<br />
to determine the impact on tuition, fees and financial aid before<br />
changing schedules.<br />
All students officially registered are subject to the <strong>College</strong>’s<br />
refund policies. To be eligible for a refund the student must<br />
follow the official withdrawal procedure as stated in the Policies<br />
and Procedures section of this <strong>Catalog</strong>. The date of withdrawal<br />
as processed through the Records Office will be the date used to<br />
determine the tuition and fees refund. Lack of attendance does<br />
not constitute eligibility to receive refunds.<br />
As part of the Higher Education Amendments of 1998, Congress<br />
passed new regulations governing what must happen to a<br />
student’s federal financial aid if the student completely withdraws<br />
from school in any semester. Federal law requires the <strong>College</strong> to<br />
calculate the amount of federal financial aid a student has earned<br />
if that student withdraws or stops attending before completing<br />
the semester. Questions regarding these regulations should be<br />
addressed to the Financial Aid Office.<br />
Interest and Fees Disclaimer<br />
The student will be responsible for the payment of all fees,<br />
interest, and expenses incurred by the school and assessed as<br />
permitted by state and federal regulations for any balance not<br />
paid as mandated by school policy and procedure. Failure to<br />
pay the balance, fees, interest and expenses will result in the<br />
student’s account being certified to the Ohio State Attorney<br />
General for continuing collection actions as required by the<br />
Ohio Revised Code.<br />
1 The refund policy for Summer Semester, Weekend <strong>College</strong>,<br />
modular and other courses that vary from the standard schedule<br />
of full semester courses applies the same refund percentages.<br />
However, the periods of time provided for refunds are adjusted<br />
proportionately to match that of the Fall and Spring Semesters.<br />
2 The term “class day” refers to any day (Monday through Sunday)<br />
during which <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> is open for business<br />
and/or classes are conducted.<br />

Enrollment<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> uses a “freeze” date each semester<br />
to determine a student’s enrollment status for awarding financial<br />
aid. The number of credit hours a student is enrolled in on the<br />
freeze date is used to calculate the amount of federal financial<br />
aid they will receive. This means that if a student adds or drops<br />
classes before the freeze date, the amount of financial aid they are<br />
eligible for will be affected. If classes are added or dropped after<br />
the freeze date, the financial aid will not change. The exception<br />
to this policy is students who withdraw and/or stop attending<br />
all of their classes. These students will have their financial<br />
aid recalculated based on their withdrawal date or last day of<br />
attendance.<br />
If a student totally withdraws or stops attending classes during<br />
the semester, the student could owe a refund to a grant program<br />
and/or impact financial aid eligibility for future aid. Additional<br />
information about the recalculation policy is available in the<br />
Financial Aid Office.<br />
Attendance Verification<br />
To be eligible for federal financial aid, attendance in class must<br />
be verified. Instructors will provide attendance information<br />
directly to the Financial Aid Office. Once attendance has been<br />
verified, any refund checks to which a student is entitled will be<br />
mailed to the student.<br />
Financial Aid Eligibility<br />
Eligibility for most financial aid programs is based on<br />
demonstrated financial need of the student and/or the student’s<br />
family and on registered credit hours.<br />
For federal and state financial aid programs a student must:<br />
• Be a citizen, national or permanent resident of the United<br />
States. Certain persons in process of becoming citizens or<br />
permanent residents also may be eligible.<br />
To be eligible for federal financial aid programs (Pell, FSEOG,<br />
Federal Work Study, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Stafford<br />
Loan, Federal PLUS Loan), a student also must:<br />
• Be accepted by the college for admission and demonstrate the<br />
ability to benefit from the selected program of study.<br />
• Be enrolled in a degree or certain certificate programs.<br />
• Meet the enrollment and attendance requirements for each<br />
program.<br />

Loans<br />
(Must be repaid)<br />
Federal Perkins Loan – A long-term, low interest federal<br />
government loan based on financial need. Up to $8,000 can be<br />
borrowed for an associate degree. Actual amounts received are<br />
determined by need. Repayment of the loan, with five percent<br />
simple interest accruing from start of repayment, begins nine<br />
months after the student leaves college or becomes enrolled for<br />
less than six credit hours, and must be completed in 10 years.<br />
The Financial Aid Office determines eligibility using federal<br />
guidelines. Funds are awarded on a first come, first served basis.<br />
New borrowers must complete entrance counseling online.<br />
Federal Family Education Loan Programs –<br />
All borrowers of any Federal Family Education Loan Program<br />
must meet minimum Ability to Benefit criteria. New borrowers<br />
must complete entrance counseling online.<br />
Federal Stafford Loan – Many banks and credit unions provide<br />
educational loans under this federal loan program. Students must<br />
be enrolled in a minimum of six credit hours to be eligible.<br />
Stafford loans have a variable interest rate, adjusted each July 1,<br />
which uses the 90-day Treasury Bill rate as its base, and is capped<br />
at 8.25%. Rates as of July 1, 2003 are 2.82% during in-school,<br />
grace and deferment periods, and 3.42% for loans in repayment.<br />
Repayment begins six months after graduation or when a student<br />
becomes enrolled for less than six credit hours. Payments are<br />
based on the amount borrowed.<br />
Dependent students can borrow up to $2,625 for the first year<br />
and $3,500 the second year, up to a cumulative maximum of<br />
$23,000. Independent students can borrow up to $6,625 the<br />
first year (up to $2,625 can be subsidized) and $7,500 the second<br />
year (up to $3,500 can be subsidized). Independent students can<br />
borrow up to $46,000, of which no more than $23,000 may be<br />
subsidized. Students attending only one semester of the academic<br />
year prior to graduation will receive a prorated loan amount.<br />
Students enrolled in certificate programs are restricted to first<br />
year borrowing limits.<br />
There are two Stafford Loan types:<br />
• The Federal Subsidized Stafford Loan is a need-based loan<br />
for which the interest is paid by the government while the<br />
student is in school at least half-time. The Financial Aid Office<br />
determines eligibility using federal government guidelines.<br />
Applications are available online at www.owens.edu.<br />
• The Federal Unsubsidized Stafford Loan is a loan that does<br />
not require financial need. However, total financial aid, which<br />
includes the unsubsidized loan, cannot exceed the cost of<br />
education. Unlike the subsidized Stafford loan, interest accrues<br />
while the student is attending school. The Financial Aid Office<br />
determines eligibility using federal government guidelines.<br />
Applications are available online at www.owens.edu.<br />
Federal Parent Loan (PLUS) – Parents can borrow funds to<br />
cover educational costs for their dependent students. Students<br />
must be enrolled in a minimum of 6 credit hours and meet<br />
the eligibility criteria outlined on the PLUS loan request form.<br />
Interest is adjusted annually based on the 90-day Treasury bill<br />
rate plus 3.1% (capped at 9%; the rate as of July 1, 2003 is<br />
4.22%). Repayment begins when the loan is fully disbursed,<br />
with the first payment generally due within 60 days. There is<br />
no financial need required to be eligible. However, the total<br />
financial aid cannot exceed the cost of education. The applicant’s<br />
credit history will be evaluated in determining loan eligibility.<br />
Applications are available online at www.owens.edu.<br />

e-Learning<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>’s Office of e-Learning offers Web<br />
Courses, Telecourses and <strong>Owens</strong>LINK Videoconferencing to<br />
interested students.<br />
Web Courses<br />
In a web course, students access their course content and<br />
instructor entirely over the Internet. It is a rigorous form of<br />
instruction for motivated students who cannot fit traditional<br />
classes into their daily schedule. Web courses often require more<br />
time and effort than on-campus sections. Students must have<br />
access to a computer on which they may have to download<br />
and install software and be able to access the Internet at least<br />
three times per week. Correspondence is conducted via online<br />
discussion forums, chat rooms and email. Instructors may require<br />
students to come to one of the <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
Testing Centers to take exams.<br />
Web Course Delivery Platforms<br />
Blackboard is the primary platform used to deliver web courses at<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>. [URL for Blackboard is<br />
http://owens.cc.blackboard.com] Other platforms and Internet<br />
sites are also used.<br />
Web Course Orientation<br />
The e-Learning Office offers on-campus web course orientations<br />
each semester. Students who have never taken a web course and<br />
would like a general overview and introduction to the course<br />
interfaces should attend a session. Online orientation resources<br />
are also available on the e-Learning website. [URL for e-<br />
Learning is http://www.owens.edu/distance_ed/index.html]<br />
Telecourses<br />
Telecourses are a way for self-motivated students to take classes<br />
without having to come to campus on a regular basis. They<br />
are a complete instructional package that generally include a<br />
textbook(s), audio or videotapes, and a student study guide/<br />
e-Learning<br />
syllabus. After registering for a telecourse, the instructor will<br />
mail the syllabus to the student’s home sometime during the<br />
first week of the semester. Students must follow the syllabus and<br />
submit all assignments on a set schedule. Students must mail or<br />
email the assignments to the instructor. Students also may have<br />
to come to one of the <strong>College</strong>’s Testing Centers or arrange for a<br />
proctor to take exams and quizzes. Individual instructors vary the<br />
requirements and approaches to their respective telecourses.<br />
Telecourse Orientations<br />
The e-Learning Office offers on-campus telecourse orientations<br />
each semester. Students who have never taken a telecourse and<br />
would like a general overview and introduction should attend a<br />
session.<br />
<strong>Owens</strong>LINK Videoconferencing<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> has extensively utilized<br />
videoconferencing technology to deliver education for the past<br />
several years, allowing participants at different locations to<br />
see and hear each other. Instructors can utilize media such as<br />
PowerPoint presentations, videotapes and the Internet to deliver<br />
instruction to remote locations.

Are e-Learning Courses Right for Me?<br />
How well would an e-Learning course fit your circumstances and learning style?<br />
Honestly answer the following questions, and score as directed.<br />
(Adapted from “Are Telecourses for Me?” as printed in The Agenda, PBS-Adult<br />
Learning Service, Spring, 1994. The Northern Virginia <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
Extended Learning Institute developed this questionnaire.)<br />
My need to take this course now is:<br />
a. High - I need to take it immediately for a specific goal.<br />
b. Moderate - I could take it on campus later or substitute another course.<br />
c. Low - It could be postponed.<br />
Feeling that I am part of a class is:<br />
a. Not particularly necessary to me.<br />
b. Somewhat important to me.<br />
c. Very important to me.<br />
I would classify myself as someone who:<br />
a. Often gets things done ahead of time.<br />
b. Needs reminding to get things done on time.<br />
c. Puts things off until the last minute or doesn’t complete them.<br />
Classroom discussion is:<br />
a. Rarely helpful to me.<br />
b. Sometimes helpful to me.<br />
c. Almost always helpful to me.<br />
When an instructor hands out directions for an assignment, I prefer:<br />
a. Figuring out the instructions myself.<br />
b. Trying to follow the direction on my own, then asking for help as needed.<br />
c. Having the instructions explained to me.<br />
I need faculty comments on my assignments:<br />
a. Within a few weeks, so I can review what I did.<br />
b. Within a few days, or I forget what I did.<br />
c. Right a way, or I get very frustrated.<br />
Considering my professional and personal schedule, the amount of time I have to<br />
work on a Distance Learning Course is:<br />
a. More than enough for an on campus course.<br />
b. The same as for a class on campus.<br />
c. Less than for a class on campus.<br />
Coming to campus on a regular schedule is:<br />
a. Extremely difficult for me - I have commitments (work,<br />
family, or personal) during times when classes are offered.<br />
b. A little difficult, but I can rearrange my priorities to allow<br />
for regular attendance on campus.<br />
c. Easy for me.<br />
Scoring Key: a. = 3 points; b. = 2 points; c. = 1 point<br />
20 points or more - An e-Learning course is a real possibility for you.<br />
11 to 20 points - e-Learning courses may work for you, but you may need to make<br />
a few adjustments in your schedule and study habits to succeed.<br />
10 or fewer points - e-Learning may not currently be the best alternative for you.<br />
You may want to consider taking an on-campus section of the course.<br />
Before registering for any class, it is always best to speak with an Enrollment<br />
Services Representative.

Academic Policies and Procedures<br />
Academic Policies and Procedures<br />
Academic Dismissal<br />
A student is subject to academic dismissal if he or she has been<br />
on academic probation for one semester and does not achieve<br />
the required cumulative grade point average for the hours<br />
attempted during the next semester in which enrolled (see<br />
Academic Probation Policy on page 56). Academic dismissal<br />
prohibits the student from enrolling in the <strong>College</strong> for one<br />
semester. (Summer semester is not considered as a semester of<br />
prohibited enrollment unless the summer semester is required<br />
in the specific program of study). Students may be granted<br />
readmission by completing an academic plan with a counselor<br />
from the Office of Academic Enhancement and Counseling<br />
prior to the first class meeting for the semester in which they<br />
plan to enroll. (Students in Health Technologies Programs<br />
are required to have their plan submitted and approved by<br />
the appropriate Department Chair and the Dean of Health<br />
Technologies). The most appropriate time for students to<br />
complete this plan and select classes is two months prior to<br />
the beginning of the semester in which they hope to enroll.<br />
International Students may be granted readmission by<br />
completing an academic plan with the International Student<br />
Enrollment Administrator prior to the first class meeting<br />
for the semester in which they plan to enroll. (Students in<br />
Health Technologies Programs are required to have their plan<br />
submitted and approved by the appropriate Department Chair<br />
and the Dean of Health Technologies).<br />
Program Readmission/Continuation<br />
A student who fails required courses within a major, or fails to<br />
achieve the stipulated 2.0 GPA in courses within a technical<br />
major must meet specific program policies for readmission<br />
or continuation in the program. Before a student may<br />
continue or be readmitted into the program, an academic<br />
plan must be approved and on file. An academic plan is<br />
completed through the Office of Academic Enhancement and<br />
Counseling. Students should see their Department Chair or<br />
Dean concerning the policy for their program of study. (Also,<br />
see Readmission Policies and Procedures on page 64). Findlayarea<br />
Campus students should see the appropriate academic<br />
administrative personnel in the instructional office.<br />
Academic Forgiveness Policy<br />
The Academic Forgiveness Policy is a means by where, under<br />
certain circumstances, a student’s grade point average can be<br />
adjusted. Specifically, if a student changes from one technology<br />
program to another or has not been enrolled at <strong>Owens</strong> for a<br />
number of years, the student may be eligible for application<br />
of this policy. Academic forgiveness can be applied once.<br />
However, once the policy is applied, it is irrevocable and cannot<br />
be appealed (The student may not apply both policies that<br />
follow). The student should initiate the petition for academic<br />
forgiveness. (A form is available in the <strong>College</strong>’s Records Office<br />
and Academic Division Offices.) The program’s Department<br />
Chair will assist the student in preparing the petition. Approval<br />
of the Division Dean will be required as part of the petitioning<br />
process. A final decision on the petition will be given in writing<br />
to the student within 30 days of the filing of the petition,<br />
with a copy of the decision placed in the student’s permanent<br />
record in the Records Office. Students planning to transfer to<br />
other colleges and universities should be aware that receiving<br />
institution policies may dictate that all grades earned will be<br />
used in computing GPA for admission and other purposes. The<br />
forgiveness policy must be applied for and completed prior to<br />
graduation.<br />
Grade Point Adjustment with Program Change<br />
Students who change from one program of study to another<br />
may be eligible to petition to have certain grades, earned in<br />
their earlier program, dropped from their grade point average<br />
computation. (“General Studies” is not a program and cannot<br />
be used to make a change.) Moreover, students who change<br />
from one program of study to another, while on probation, will
55<br />

TOLEDO-AREA CAMPUS<br />
not be subject to academic dismissal provided they achieve a<br />
2.0 GPA each semester in their new program of study. The 2.0<br />
GPA required excludes developmental education coursework.<br />
A change from one Arts and Science concentration to another<br />
does not constitute a program of study change. Students who<br />
have changed programs may, upon completion of 75 percent of<br />
the coursework in the new associate degree program, petition<br />
to have all grades and honor points in courses, which are not<br />
applicable to their new program, removed from the calculation<br />
of the new cumulative grade point average. The student’s<br />
permanent record will indicate performance in all previously<br />
attempted coursework. Courses in developmental education<br />
are not eligible for this consideration. Excess Arts and Science<br />
coursework hours not required for meeting program general<br />
education requirements may be deleted at the student’s option.<br />
Once hours are deleted from inclusion in the student’s grade<br />
point computation, they may not be reinstated at any time in<br />
the future. This policy does not apply to students who graduate<br />
in one associate degree program and then enter a new program<br />
and does not include the completion of certificates.<br />
Grade Point Adjustment Following Readmission to<br />
<strong>College</strong><br />
Many students returning to <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> after<br />
years of absence wish to make a “fresh start” upon<br />
readmission to the <strong>College</strong>, however, poor prior academic<br />
performance or certain types of program changes burden<br />
them. This component of the Academic Forgiveness Policy<br />
recognizes that people’s lives change and conditions that<br />
resulted in unsatisfactory grades may no longer exist. The<br />
policy, therefore, is designed as a once-only opportunity to have<br />
low grades previously earned dropped from grade point average<br />
computation.<br />
Students who have not enrolled at <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
for three or more calendar years, and who complete the required<br />
readmission process, may petition to have grades deleted from<br />
grade point computation for the following – and only the<br />
following – courses:<br />
1. All courses where grades of D, F or FNC were earned.<br />
2. Courses that are no longer in a program, regardless of grade<br />
achieved.<br />
3. Courses previously taken which are out-of-date. Students<br />
may petition to have grades forgiven after completing a<br />
minimum of 12 semester hours of credit, at a grade point<br />
average of 2.0 or better, following readmission to the<br />
<strong>College</strong>. The policy applies only to courses taken prior<br />
to readmission and may not be applied once an Ohio<br />
Board of Regents approved degree is given. Credit earned<br />
previously at <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> (or <strong>Owens</strong><br />
Technical <strong>College</strong>) for which the policy does not apply will<br />
be carried over at time of re-entry to the <strong>College</strong>.<br />
All courses and grades will remain on a student’s academic<br />
transcript. However, courses dropped from grade point<br />
computation will have the notation, “Academic Forgiveness<br />
Applied”. Once the policy is applied, it is irrevocable and<br />
cannot be appealed. Course credits previously earned at the<br />
D level will be forfeited and can no longer be used to meet<br />
degree requirements. Furthermore, students are not eligible<br />
to complete a proficiency examination to meet the degree<br />
requirement for forfeited courses.<br />
The policy is applicable only to the first academic degree and,<br />
as noted above, may not be applied following the awarding of<br />
a degree. However, it may be applied following the awarding<br />
of certificates, but can never include courses used to meet<br />
certificate requirements.<br />

Students enrolled in selective health programs must abide by<br />
their respective program policies regarding readmission.<br />
Academic Honors<br />
The Academic Honors List is compiled at the end of each<br />
semester and includes students who have earned a grade<br />
point average of 3.5 or higher while attempting three or more<br />
semester hours of credit. The student will receive a letter of<br />
congratulations from the Provost. Honors also are noted on a<br />
student’s transcript. To graduate with Honors, a final grade point<br />
average of 3.5 must be attained. The following classifications are<br />
posted on honor graduate diplomas: 3.5-3.79 Honors, 3.8-3.9<br />
High Honors and 3.91-4.0 Highest Honors.<br />
Academic Probation<br />
Academic probation status serves as official notification that a<br />
student is not making acceptable progress toward graduation.<br />
Continuation of academic probation for a second semester<br />
may result in academic dismissal. A student will be placed on<br />
academic probation status if the student’s cumulative grade point<br />
average falls below the established minimum as stipulated below.<br />
GPA Hours Cumulative Grade<br />
Attempted Point Average<br />
10-19 1.50<br />
20-29 1.60<br />
30-39 1.70<br />
40-49 1.85<br />
50-59 1.95<br />
60 or above 2.00<br />
[Notification of academic probation is provided on grade report<br />
forms and also through a letter of notification.]<br />
Academic probation may require a student to reduce course<br />
load, as determined by the Chair of the major area of study or a<br />
counselor. Students placed on academic probation are strongly<br />
encouraged to schedule an appointment with a counselor to<br />
develop a plan for resolving academic problems.<br />
Adding a Second Major<br />
Students may enroll in more than one program of study at the<br />
same time, but must meet all requirements for both programs<br />
and majors. If there are technical electives in either of the<br />
majors, the electives must be different. That is, the courses<br />
from one major cannot meet technical elective requirements<br />
in both majors. Students pursuing more than one major must<br />
officially declare their intent by completing the appropriate form<br />
in the Records Office. This must be done prior to beginning<br />
coursework on the second major. <strong>Owens</strong> Findlay-area Campus<br />
students may obtain and return the form to the Records Office.<br />
Adding Courses<br />
A course may be added through 10-calendar days into a semester<br />
with the approval of the advisor. Additions or late registrations<br />
made on the 11th -15th calendar day must have the written<br />
permission of the instructor. After the fifteenth calendar day, no<br />
registrations or additions may be made. For courses which are<br />
less than a full semester and/or start after the beginning of the<br />
term, the add date will be adjusted accordingly.<br />
After the 15th calendar day, a student may change sections of a<br />
course, if a situation occurs that is determined to be beyond the<br />
student’s control, permission of the new instructor is achieved.<br />
Age of Coursework Policy<br />
In situations where coursework is six-years old or older or where<br />
required skills may have been lost, transfer credit will not be<br />
accepted (see specific programs as age of coursework accepted<br />
may vary, especially health programs). Courses submitted for<br />
acceptance regarding program requirements will be subject to
57<br />
Academic Policies and Procedures<br />
CONTACT US …<br />
TOLEDO-AREA CAMPUS<br />
review and approval by the Department Chair. Those courses<br />
reviewed which do not substantially meet current requirements<br />
and standards will not be approved for credit. Courses will be<br />
aged from the date of course completion. (Also see Graduation<br />
Requirements)<br />
Articulation Agreements with Schools<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> has established articulation<br />
agreements with many area secondary schools. Advanced<br />
placement credit may be given for vocational graduates who have<br />
acquired a sufficient level of knowledge and demonstrated skills<br />
required in a technology program. Students who are interested in<br />
a waiver of credit through articulation should obtain information<br />
on opportunities and requirements, as well as an application<br />
through their high school guidance office, the <strong>College</strong>’s<br />
Enrollment Services Office or the Records Office.<br />
Assessment Policy<br />
Assessment determines the level of academic, personal and social<br />
readiness needed for a student to be successful in college. This<br />
policy supports the process of evaluating students’ academic<br />
skills for proper course placement. The information obtained<br />
during the assessment process is crucial to the proper advisement<br />
of students in course selection, which provides educational<br />
experiences that strengthen and enhance current levels of<br />
competence.<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> recognizes that some students may<br />
enter the <strong>College</strong> with academic experiences, test results and<br />
educational goals that exclude them from assessment testing.<br />
The following waiver policy details the only cases for a student<br />
assessment test waiver:<br />
COMPASS Waiver Policy<br />

Mandatory Placement and Completion<br />
All new students, full- or part-time, who plan to receive a degree<br />
or certificate or college federal financial aid, must attend an<br />
Assessment Information Program or meet the COMPASS waiver<br />
policy. The COMPASS testing program is part of the enrollment<br />
services process. It assesses reading, language usage and math.<br />
The COMPASS assessment scores are used to advise and register<br />
students in classes suited to their academic achievement and<br />
skill level in an effort to help ensure their academic success.<br />
Should the COMPASS results indicate that a student needs<br />
developmental courses in reading, writing or mathematics,<br />
satisfactory completion of developmental coursework is required<br />
before a student will be allowed to register for a college-level<br />
composition or mathematics course.<br />
Auditing Courses<br />
Students sometimes wish to audit a course. To audit means to<br />
enroll for a course for some reason other than to receive a course<br />
grade and credit. An audited course will be noted as “AU” on a<br />
student’s transcript. For further information, contact Office of<br />
Enrollment Services. An audit status must be indicated on the<br />
registration form and filed in the Records Office at the time of<br />
registration. Auditing a course does not create a waiver for any<br />
fee assessed. An audit must be declared by the first week of class.<br />
Cancelled Classes<br />
See Withdrawal of Course from Schedule.<br />
<strong>Catalog</strong> of Record<br />
A student’s program requirements are those found in the<br />
program of instruction section of the <strong>College</strong> <strong>Catalog</strong> that was<br />
current at the time of initial enrollment at <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong>. If a student withdraws from the program and later reenters,<br />
the program requirements in the <strong>Catalog</strong> current at the<br />
time of re-entry are in effect. If a student changes programs,<br />
the requirements in the <strong>Catalog</strong> current at the time of the<br />
change are in effect. All current academic and general policies<br />
and procedures are published in the <strong>Catalog</strong>. Since students are<br />
expected to know and follow all current policies and procedures,<br />
every student is encouraged to obtain a current <strong>Catalog</strong> each<br />
year. Students taking classes while awaiting commencement into<br />
selective health programs must abide by their program policies<br />
regarding catalog of record.<br />
Change of Program/Major<br />
If a student wishes to change his/her program, he/she should<br />
meet with the appropriate Chair and/or with a representative<br />
from the Office of Academic Enhancement and Counseling to<br />
discuss the new program selection. A Change of Major Form<br />
must be completed and can be obtained in the Records Office on<br />
either campus.<br />
Cheating and Plagiarism<br />
Dishonest scholarly practices include, but are not limited to<br />
taking, using or copying another’s work and submitting it<br />
as one’s own, intentionally falsifying information or taking<br />
another’s ideas with the intention of passing these ideas as one’s<br />
own. A judgment regarding the dishonest scholarly practice<br />
should, in most cases, be made by the individual instructor.<br />
The basic criterion that will be used to judge the dishonest<br />
scholarly practice is the intention of the student to enhance his/<br />
her own position within the class by employing a dishonest or<br />
unacceptable scholarly practice. A few examples include, but are<br />
not limited to:<br />
1. Work copied verbatim from an original author without<br />
proper credit;<br />
2. Work copied with only a few words altered from the<br />
original without proper credit being given;
59<br />
Academic Policies and Procedures<br />

TOLEDO-AREA CAMPUS<br />
3. Answers copied from another’s test paper;<br />
4. Evidence of a deliberate and calculated plan to engage<br />
in a dishonest academic practice, such as gaining access to<br />
examinations prior to the exam time or the extraction of<br />
information regarding an examination from other students;<br />
and<br />
5. Falsification of clinical records.<br />
Consequences for proven cases of dishonest scholarly practices<br />
are as follows:<br />
1. The first offense will result in an equivalent grade of “F”<br />
being given for the particular test, project or paper on which the<br />
cheating has occurred. The instructor may require the student<br />
to demonstrate mastery of the objectives for the particular test,<br />
project or paper or the grade will remain an “F”.<br />
2. The second offense (two total offenses, not necessarily in one<br />
course) will result in the student being assigned a failing grade<br />
for the course in which the second offense occurred.<br />
3. Any student involved in three total offenses (not necessarily<br />
in one course) will immediately be dismissed from the<br />
<strong>College</strong> for one full academic semester. Upon readmission, a<br />
student that had been dismissed for dishonest practices will<br />
be immediately dismissed upon any subsequent single offense<br />
involving a dishonest academic practice.<br />
It is recognized by the <strong>College</strong> that the prime responsibility<br />
for academic honesty is the individual student. However, the<br />
instructor must create a learning environment that discourages<br />
cheating and encourages honest scholarship. If a student feels<br />
that he/she has been wrongly accused, appeal procedures exist.<br />
The penalty for a proven case of dishonest scholarly practice<br />
will stand through appeal. If the appeal ruling is in favor of the<br />
student, the following will apply:<br />
1. For the first offense, the test, project or paper will be graded<br />
on the criteria for that assignment.<br />
2. For the second offense, the student’s grade will be evaluated<br />
based on the criteria for the course.<br />
3. For the third offense, the student will be reinstated to the<br />
<strong>College</strong> without penalty.<br />
The instructor shall report all incidents of dishonest academic<br />
practice to the appropriate Dean and Department Chair. All<br />
reports of incidents of dishonest academic practice shall be<br />
maintained in the student’s permanent file in the Records Office<br />
until the student graduates. The student will be notified in<br />
writing by the Dean of the consequences and has the right to<br />
appeal. The Dean shall see that appropriate action is taken and<br />
notify the instructor and Chair of the action taken.<br />
Course Substitution<br />
Under special circumstances, students may request the<br />
substitution of a different course for a required course within an<br />
academic program. Substitutions are usually initiated through<br />
the advising process with the student’s academic advisor and/or<br />
Department Chair. Courses considered for substitution are<br />
of similar classification to the required course. For example,<br />
one technical course may be substituted for another technical<br />
course or one general education requirement for another. All<br />
general education requirements in communications, social<br />
and behavioral sciences, and humanities must still be met<br />
(see “General Education Requirements” on page 11). A form<br />
requesting approval of the substitution is required and is initiated<br />
with the Chair of the student’s major academic program. In<br />
situations where students are requesting the substitution of<br />
a different course for a course that was previously attempted<br />
and failed, the grade received by the student in the substituted<br />

Credit By Proficiency Exam<br />
A proficiency is an examination designed to measure the<br />
student’s level of knowledge and/or skill in the content covered<br />
by a given course or courses. Passing a proficiency examination<br />
replaces the need for a student to actually register for and<br />
complete a course or courses in a program. As long as a student<br />
has met the <strong>College</strong>’s graduation residency requirement, there is<br />
no limit placed upon the number of credit hours a student may<br />
obtain via proficiency examinations. The following experiences<br />
are representative of those that may prepare a student to<br />
successfully complete a proficiency examination:<br />
1. The student has had extensive high school work above the<br />
normal curriculum, which would make certain basic courses<br />
repetitious.<br />
2. The student has, through actual work experience, attained<br />
the knowledge and competency of skills required in certain<br />
courses.<br />
3. The student has taken coursework at another institution of<br />
post-secondary education which is not transferable, but has<br />
given him/her sufficient background to make certain courses<br />
repetitious.<br />
4. The student has completed coursework in an apprenticeship<br />
or vocational program.<br />
5. The student has completed studies in a civil or military<br />
training program.<br />
Course Proficiency Examinations<br />
The <strong>College</strong>’s academic faculty has prepared proficiency<br />
examinations for many courses offered within their respective<br />
departments and programs. These examinations may be oral<br />
or written and may, in certain circumstances, require the<br />
demonstration of laboratory skills. A proficiency examination<br />
may be attempted only one time per course. Students enrolled in<br />
courses beyond the designated drop date(s) cannot petition for<br />
proficiency exams in those courses. If a student has completed a<br />
course by regular enrollment and received a grade (A, B, C, D,<br />
F, I, P/NC, or F/NC), they are not eligible to take a proficiency<br />
examination for that course. Moreover, a student’s failure of the<br />
first course in a sequence forfeits their right to take proficiency<br />
examinations for subsequent courses in the sequence. Students<br />
also should note that locally developed and administered<br />
proficiency tests, such as the <strong>College</strong>’s proficiency examinations,<br />
provide credit at the local institution, but may not be transferable<br />
to other colleges.<br />
To be eligible for proficiency examinations, a prospective<br />
student must have completed all Enrollment Services application<br />
steps and be eligible for registration. A picture identification is<br />
required of all students at the time a proficiency examination is<br />
administered. All proficiency examinations are administered by a<br />
full-time employee of the <strong>College</strong> and must be completed within<br />
two weeks of proficiency application date.<br />
For more information regarding application procedures and<br />
courses available for proficiency, please contact the Office of<br />
Enrollment Services.<br />
<strong>College</strong> Level Examination Program (CLEP)<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> participates in the National CLEP<br />
testing program for credit by proficiency, accepting CLEP results.<br />
CLEP test results are accepted for course credit by several colleges<br />
and universities throughout the nation. Credit may be awarded

TOLEDO-AREA CAMPUS<br />
for one or more courses through CLEP scores, but at least 50<br />
percent of a degree program must be taken through actual<br />
coursework at <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>. A listing of CLEP<br />
tests and minimum cut-off scores accepted by <strong>Owens</strong> is available<br />
through the Records Office on the Toledo-area Campus.<br />
Advanced Placement Examination (AP)<br />
AP examinations are given to high school students who have<br />
excelled in advanced level high school courses. The AP test<br />
determines whether a student has sufficiently mastered course<br />
content to warrant receiving college credit for work completed<br />
in high school. <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> does not administer<br />
the test. Students interested in taking the AP test should speak<br />
with their high school guidance counselor. <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> will award advanced placement credit based on<br />
individual test results. Students wishing to have results evaluated<br />
should inquire at the Records Office on either campus.<br />
Credit By Transfer<br />
Transfer credit constitutes academic credit given for courses<br />
taken at another accredited institution of higher education. To<br />
receive credit for a course or courses taken at another institution,<br />
a student must submit an official copy of his/her transcript<br />
from the institution to the Records Office. Credits accepted are<br />
determined by the <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> Coordinator<br />
of Transfer Evaluations with the assistance of the Department<br />
Chair. Only those courses with a grade of “C” or higher will be<br />
considered for transfer. The credit hours of the course or courses<br />
earned by transfer will be recorded on the student’s transcript<br />
in the total credit hours earned. However, transfer credit hours<br />
will not be included in the calculation of the student’s total<br />
cumulative GPA.<br />
Students who have completed an Ohio Board of Regents<br />
approved transfer module at another Ohio college or university<br />
will be able to transfer that module in total according to the<br />
guidelines on page 28 of this <strong>Catalog</strong>. Student who transfer to<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> must meet residency requirements<br />
for graduation and must meet all other degree requirements.<br />
Students may appeal for reconsideration of decisions determined<br />
by the above policies.<br />
Work Experience Waiver – Work Experience Waiver is<br />
relinquishing the requirements of a particular course on the basis<br />
of previous work experience. Within each academic division it<br />
will be determined which course may be waived. The procedure<br />
for waiving courses will follow established <strong>College</strong> procedures.<br />
(See Department Chair or Dean for specific procedures.) The<br />
maximum number of credit hours that may be waived, by virtue<br />
of work experience, is nine credit hours except in pre-approved<br />
programs such as LPN/ADN, Associate of Technical Studies<br />
(Type B) and Law Enforcement. When courses are waived, no<br />
additional coursework will be required in lieu of those courses<br />
waived. Coursework, which has been waived, will be noted in the<br />
student’s permanent record by course number and the notation<br />
“waived”. A fee is assessed for each course waived.<br />
Dropping a Course<br />
A course may be dropped for academic reasons no later than<br />
the end of the ninth week of the academic semester. A course<br />
may be dropped for non-academic reasons after the end of the<br />
ninth week only for a problem of serious nature over which the<br />
student has no control. In this event, written documentation<br />
of the problem will be required. Approval of the request is<br />
made by the appropriate Dean. For courses, which are less than<br />
a full semester, the drop date will be adjusted accordingly. In<br />
order to officially withdraw from a course or courses, a student<br />
must follow the <strong>College</strong>’s procedures for dropping a course. If<br />
a student does not follow these procedures, the student will be<br />
held financially and academically responsible. Add/Drop forms<br />
are available in the Records Office on the Toledo-area Campus<br />
and in the Records Office on the Findlay-area Campus, as well<br />

Counseling and returned to the Records Office.<br />
Dual Degrees<br />
Students are eligible to receive only one degree within a<br />
technology or program. A student’s major or majors are listed<br />
on the student’s transcripts. If a graduate returns at a later date<br />
and completes a second major within the same technology area<br />
in which the student previously had received a degree, that<br />
student will then, at the time of graduation, receive a letter of<br />
commendation for the accomplishment, rather than receiving a<br />
second diploma. A student completing a degree simultaneously<br />
in another program area must meet requirements for both<br />
degrees. (See Adding a Second Major)<br />
Enrollment Status<br />
Enrollment status is determined by the official number of credit<br />
hours in which a student is enrolled each semester. Enrollment<br />
status often is used to help determine eligibility for financial<br />
aid, veterans’ benefits, company and agency funding or other<br />
purposes. Students are responsible for knowing their enrollment<br />
status and understanding the impact of changing credit hours by<br />
the add/drop process.<br />
Full-Time Enrollment: 12 or more credit hours<br />
Three-Quarter Time Enrollment: 9-10-11 credit hours<br />
Half-Time Enrollment: 6-7-8 credit hours<br />
Less Than Half-Time Enrollment: 5 or less credit hours<br />
Grade Disputes and Appeals<br />
Grade cards are mailed at the end of each semester. Students<br />
have one semester in which to dispute/appeal an academic grade<br />
received (see Student Appeals Process on page 71).<br />
Grade Point Average Calculation<br />
The cumulative grade point average is computed by dividing the<br />
total number of quality points earned by the number of semester<br />
hours attempted. For example:<br />
Attempted Grade/Credit Hrs. Quality Points<br />
4 x A/4 points = 16<br />
3 x B/3 points = 9<br />
4 x C/2 points = 8<br />
4 x D/1 point = 4<br />
3 x F/0 points = 0<br />
GPA = Quality points/Hours attempted 2.06 GPA = 37/18<br />
Grading System<br />
The following system will be used by the faculty in evaluating<br />
student achievement:<br />
Quality of Grade Point<br />
Grade Achievement Values<br />
A Superior 4.0<br />
B Good 3.0<br />
C Passing 2.0<br />
D Poor but passing 1.0<br />
F Failure 0.0<br />
I Incomplete 0.0<br />
WD Withdrawal 0.0<br />
AU Audit of course 0.0<br />
P/NP Passing Grade 0.0<br />
(no effect on cumulative average)<br />
F/NC 0.0<br />
Failing Grade (no effect on cumulative average)<br />
PR 1 Progress 0.0<br />
Grade reports will be mailed to the student’s home address at the<br />
close of each semester.

Incompletes<br />
The grade of “incomplete” is granted by a course instructor to<br />
a student who has extenuating circumstances for not taking the<br />
final examination or meeting some other definite requirement<br />
in the course. After a student completes the course to the<br />
satisfaction of the instructor, the “I” grade is removed and a<br />
grade is substituted. Unless an extension of time is granted by the<br />
appropriate instructor, an “I” grade must be made up before the<br />
end of the next semester or the “I” may be subject to change to a<br />
grade of “F”.<br />
Prerequisites and Corequisites<br />
Courses specified in this <strong>Catalog</strong> as “corequisites” are courses<br />
that should be taken either with or prior to the course requiring<br />
the co-requisite. “Prerequisites” are course requirements that<br />
must be met prior to the beginning of the course requiring the<br />
prerequisite. Students are not encouraged to attempt to enroll<br />
in a course whose co/prerequisites have not been met. However,<br />
in specific and limited situations, a student may seek permission<br />
to enroll in a course without having taken its co/prerequisite.<br />
Permission must be granted by both the course instructor and<br />
the Department Chair in which the course is offered. Students<br />
must submit a request form, which is available in Academic<br />
Division offices. Due to accreditation standards, this procedure<br />
may not apply to any technical courses offered by the Health<br />
Technologies Division. Students completing a degree program<br />
will have to complete all course requirements including co/<br />
prerequisites. If applicable, students may take proficiency tests<br />
for co/prerequisite courses when available.<br />
Readmission<br />
All students desiring readmission to the <strong>College</strong> may go to the<br />
Records Office on the Toledo-area or Findlay-area campuses and<br />
request that their file be reactivated. Those students desiring<br />
readmission after dismissal for academic reasons, must contact<br />
the Office of Academic Enhancement & Counseling to assist<br />
in the development of a required written academic plan (Form<br />
number ID-A#1,2/84) to resolve the academic problem. This<br />
plan must have the approval of the appropriate Program Chair<br />
and Dean.<br />
Students returning via readmission will re-enter the program<br />
under the current <strong>Catalog</strong>. Information on readmission to<br />
selective admission programs is found with the description of<br />
each program in the Programs of Instruction section of the<br />
<strong>College</strong> <strong>Catalog</strong>.<br />
Registration<br />
Currently enrolled students are given an opportunity to register<br />
early for best class selection during advance registration each<br />
semester. Students are notified of this procedure by mail. <strong>Owens</strong><br />
<strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> provides continuous registration following<br />
advance registration through the beginning of classes.<br />
New students should contact the Enrollment Services Office<br />
on the Toledo-area Campus or Findlay-area Campus for an<br />
appointment. Returning students and currently enrolled students<br />
who do not register during advance registration should contact<br />
an Enrollment Services Representative to complete the advising<br />
process prior to registration. Students are advised to complete<br />
their registration as early as possible due to greater availability of<br />
open class sections.<br />
Open registration is held prior to the beginning of each semester.<br />
Since late entrance is a hindrance to academic success, each<br />
student is encouraged to register for classes during the regular<br />
registration period. Students may register for classes eight class<br />
days into the semester with approval of an advisor. This is<br />
adjusted for less than 16-week courses. Late registration is not<br />
encouraged.

Repeating Courses<br />
A student may repeat any course three times regardless of the<br />
previous grade received. However, students enrolled in selective<br />
health programs must abide by their respective program policies<br />
regarding the repeating of technical courses. Before a student<br />
will be allowed to repeat a course for the third time, he/she must<br />
meet with a Student Services Representative to complete an<br />
academic plan for remediation. This plan must be reviewed and<br />
approved by the appropriate Chair. In addition, both the staff<br />
representative and Chair will monitor the student’s progress if<br />
allowed to take the course a fourth time. In addition, one full<br />
academic term must elapse between registrations for the third<br />
and fourth repetition of a course.<br />
Only hours attempted and the grade earned in the repeated<br />
course will be used in calculating the grade point average, even if<br />
the grade earned in the repeated course is lower than the original<br />
grade. The original course(s) and grade(s) and all repeated<br />
course(s) and grade(s) will remain on the official transcript<br />
of the student. A student must repeat all courses required for<br />
graduation in which a failing grade has been received. Courses<br />
designated as electives, but used to fulfill the graduation<br />
requirements, also must be repeated if failed. Alternate courses<br />
may fulfill the elective requirement; however, the original course<br />
grade will continue to be computed in the grade point average<br />
unless it specifically is repeated.<br />
Any student planning to transfer to another institution should<br />
be aware of that institution’s policies concerning repetition of<br />
courses. The limit, on the total number of times a student is<br />
permitted to take a course, is four. A withdrawal is not counted<br />
as a repeat. Repeating courses may affect a student’s eligibility<br />
for financial aid. Students on financial aid should contact the<br />
Financial Aid Office for definitive information on requirements<br />
and restrictions.<br />
Transcript Request<br />
Transcript requests must be made at the Records Office on<br />
the Toledo-area or Findlay-area campuses. A student will be<br />
required to sign a release of academic records before a copy of<br />
a transcript is released. (A request in writing will suffice as the<br />
release.) An official transcript of a student’s record is issued only<br />
for transferring credits to other colleges and universities and<br />
for the information of certifying agencies and employers. An<br />
official transcript is not issued directly to the student. However,<br />
a student may obtain a copy of the transcript stamped “Issued<br />
to Student”. This type of transcript is not accepted as official by<br />
other institutions. There is no charge for a transcript. Processing<br />
usually takes two business days for official transcripts. Student<br />
copies can be obtained immediately during regular business<br />
hours.<br />
Guest Student<br />
A student who is enrolled at another institution of higher<br />
learning may wish to take a particular course or courses at <strong>Owens</strong><br />
<strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> for transfer back to their home (degree<br />
granting) institution. Prior approval of the transfer should be<br />
obtained from the home institution before enrolling at <strong>Owens</strong><br />
<strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>. When the approved credits have been<br />
earned, the Records Office will send the student’s transcript to<br />
another institution only at the student’s request. For further<br />
information, contact the Records Office on the Toledo-area<br />
Campus.<br />

Withdrawal from the <strong>College</strong><br />
A student who desires to withdraw from the <strong>College</strong> during the<br />
semester must complete and submit a withdrawal form, obtained<br />
from the Records Office on the Toledo-area or Findlay-area<br />
Campus. Failure to withdraw will result in a grade of “F” for<br />
each course and no fees will be refunded. Withdrawal from the<br />
<strong>College</strong> for academic reasons may be requested no later than<br />
the end of the ninth week of the semester. Withdrawal from the<br />
<strong>College</strong> for non-academic reasons only may occur after the ninth<br />
week for a problem causing the withdrawal of serious nature<br />
over which the student has no control. In this event written<br />
documentation of the problem causing the withdrawal will be<br />
required. Medical withdrawal forms are available in academic<br />
division offices. Documentation should be submitted to the<br />
appropriate Dean of the student’s technology for review and<br />
approval. Students failing to follow these procedures will be<br />
held financially responsible. (See Refund Schedule on page 33)<br />
If a student withdraws from a program and later re-enters that<br />
program, the student will re-enter the program under the current<br />
<strong>Catalog</strong>.<br />
Withdrawal of Course from Schedule<br />
(Cancelled Classes)<br />
The <strong>College</strong> makes every reasonable effort to offer courses as<br />
announced, but it reserves the right to withdraw a course from<br />
the schedule if it regards the enrollment to be insufficient or if<br />
there are other significant factors present preventing the course<br />
offering. The <strong>College</strong> will notify the student of the cancelled<br />
class, but it is the student’s responsibility to replace the class on<br />
their schedule. <strong>College</strong> advisors are available to assist students in<br />
this process.<br />

Affirmative Action/Non Discrimination<br />
The continued success of our institution depends heavily on full<br />
and effective utilization and education of qualified individuals,<br />
regardless of sex, race, color, national origin or disability. It is<br />
the policy of the Board of Trustees that equal employment and<br />
equal admission opportunity shall be afforded all such qualified<br />
persons. Further, it is our policy to support and abide by all legal<br />
requirements assuring non-discrimination in employment and<br />
admission for all qualified persons without regard to sex, race,<br />
color, national origin or disability.<br />
This policy is applicable to all matters related to recruitment<br />
and admission of students and employment matters such<br />
as recruitment, hiring, upgrading and promotion, staff<br />
development, transferring, layoffs and recall, demotion and<br />
termination of employment. It also applies to employee<br />
compensation and benefits, participation in college-sponsored<br />
education or training, tuition assistance or <strong>College</strong> recreational<br />
programs and to all student services and activities. Further,<br />
all curriculum and course offerings and matters pertaining<br />
to student environment and governance will continue to be<br />
evaluated for compliance with relevant regulations. In July 1975,<br />
the Affirmative Action Office was created and, since that time,<br />
official policies and procedures have been developed to ensure<br />
compliance with relevant regulations. Inquiries concerning Title<br />
VII, Title IX, Section 504 and other matters pertaining to any<br />
type of perceived discrimination may be referred there. The office<br />
is associated with the Office of the President and is located in the<br />
Human Resources Office.<br />

Harassment<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> does not and will not tolerate<br />
harassment of our employees, applicants for employment or our<br />
students on the basis of race, color, sex, religion, national origin,<br />
age or disability. The <strong>College</strong> recognizes the adverse impact of<br />
harassment and recognizes that those who may be harassed may<br />
personally suffer adverse effects. All employees, applicants for<br />
employment and students are entitled to an environment free<br />
from all forms of unlawful discrimination and harassment. This<br />
policy demonstrates the <strong>College</strong>’s commitment to addressing<br />
these concerns.<br />
Sexual harassment is a form of illegal sex discrimination. Sexual<br />
harassment is defined as unwelcome sexual advances, requests<br />
for sexual favors and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual<br />
nature when:<br />
1. Submission to such conduct is made either explicitly or<br />
implicitly a term or condition of a decision or action; or<br />
2. Submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is<br />
used as the basis for decisions affecting such individual; or<br />
3. Such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably<br />
interfering with an individual’s performance or creating an<br />
intimidating, hostile or offensive teaching/learning and work<br />
environment.<br />
Specific examples of behavior, which may constitute sexual<br />
harassment, include:<br />
1. Deliberate, unsolicited sexually oriented comments or<br />
gestures;<br />
2. Display of offensive sexually oriented graphic materials;<br />
3. Physical contact such as patting, pinching or frequent<br />
brushing against another’s body; and
69<br />
<strong>College</strong> Policies and Procedures<br />
CONTACT US …<br />
4. Demands for sexual favors with implied promises of<br />
preferential treatment or threats.<br />
Harassment based on race, color, religion, national origin, age or<br />
disability also are forms of illegal discrimination. Any student<br />
who believes he/she is being harassed:<br />
1. Should not assume the <strong>College</strong> is aware of the problem.<br />
2. Should confront the person and request the conduct cease<br />
and immediately report the problem to the Department Chair.<br />
3. If the problem is still not resolved, take the complaint<br />
through the Student Appeals Process.<br />
4. If any of these actions are not desirable, appropriate or<br />
possible, file a complaint with the Affirmative Action Office in<br />
the Office of Human Resources.<br />
A student who files a complaint or participates in investigations<br />
shall be protected from any form of retaliation arising out of<br />
the filing of the complaint or participation in the investigation.<br />
Anyone who impedes an investigation, covers up the truth or<br />
retaliates against a complainant shall be subject to disciplinary<br />
action up to and including dismissal.<br />
All complaints will be investigated in a timely and responsible<br />
manner. Confidentiality of all information obtained during the<br />
investigation will be protected as much as possible, to the extent<br />
the investigation is not compromised. All witnesses and those<br />
interviewed during the investigation are expected to treat the<br />
matter as confidential. Harassment by any person will result in<br />
disciplinary action up to and including dismissal. If evidence<br />
supports a finding that a charge of harassment is false, the person<br />
responsible for bringing the false charge shall be subject to<br />
disciplinary action up to and including dismissal.<br />
Lost Items<br />
Students are encouraged to label their property for identification<br />
(especially textbooks) and follow common sense practices<br />
regarding that property.<br />
Findlay-area Campus<br />
Lost or stolen property should be reported in person to Campus<br />
Safety and Security or the Administrative Office.<br />
Toledo-area Campus<br />
Lost or stolen property should be reported in person to <strong>College</strong><br />

Reciprocity-Monroe County Residents<br />
The reciprocity agreement between <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
and Monroe County <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> enables Monroe<br />
County residents to attend <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> at the<br />
in-state fee rate instead of being charged the higher out-of-state<br />
tuition surcharge. The same applies to Ohio residents at Monroe<br />
County <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>. All Monroe County residents<br />
attending <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> must apply for reciprocity<br />
in order to be eligible to participate. Not all programs are eligible<br />
for reciprocity. An explanatory brochure and an application for<br />
reciprocity are available from the Enrollment Services and the<br />
Records offices. The latest list of eligible programs is maintained<br />
on the back of the application for reciprocity. Students from<br />
Monroe County who wish to enroll at <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> in programs that are not offered at Monroe County<br />
<strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>, will pay Ohio resident fees. The same<br />
stipulation applies to Ohio residents enrolling at Monroe<br />
County <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>. Applications are available in the<br />
Records Office. Questions on reciprocity can be directed to<br />
the Enrollment Services Office at <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong>,<br />
or Monroe County residents may contact Monroe County<br />
<strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> at (734) 242-7300.<br />

Student Appeals Policy and Procedures<br />
<strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> encourages informal feedback<br />
from students at any time during their enrollment as part of the<br />
continued attempt to provide services to meet student needs. In<br />
spite of these efforts to serve students, there may be an occasion<br />
when a student:<br />
1. Disagrees with a decision or action of an <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> administrator, faculty or staff member or the<br />
Disciplinary Hearing Committee;<br />
2. Disagrees with a policy of the <strong>College</strong>;<br />
3. Disagrees with implementation of a policy; or<br />
4. Feels they have been discriminated against. (Discrimination<br />
on the basis of sex, race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry,<br />
age, nonperformance related handicaps or parental marital status<br />
are not lawful.)<br />
The Student Appeals Procedure is intended to provide students,<br />
who disagree with a decision/policy or who feel they have been<br />
discriminated against, for any of the above reasons, a process of<br />
appeal through a grievance procedure. (All problems involving<br />
academic grades are excluded from the scope of responsibility for<br />
the Appeals Committee structure. Problems involving grades are<br />
appealed through the Council of Deans.)<br />
A copy of the student Appeals Procedure and Grade Appeal<br />
Procedure is available, by appointment, from the Office of the<br />

self, others or property within the <strong>Owens</strong> community, a student<br />
may be dismissed from <strong>Owens</strong> involuntarily. A preliminary<br />
investigation will be conducted to make such a determination<br />
and a hearing will be conducted within a reasonable period<br />
of time on the merits. In the event that a preponderance of<br />
evidence proves the complaint to be true, the student will be<br />
diverted from the formal disciplinary process and receive an<br />
Involuntarily Administrative Withdrawal.<br />
A. Formal Disciplinary Process<br />
A student found in violation of the code of conduct will<br />
be required to meet with the Disciplinary Administrator or<br />

1. Written notice of the complaint, including the section of the<br />
Student Code of Conduct violated, prior to meeting with the<br />
Disciplinary Administrator or designee<br />
2. Reasonable access to the evidence of the alleged violation<br />
during the disciplinary meeting (if available).<br />
3. An opportunity to respond to the complaint.<br />
4. Final written notice of the determination of the Disciplinary<br />
Administrator or designee, including any sanction(s).<br />
D. Sanctions<br />
The following are examples of sanctions that may be imposed<br />
upon any student found to have violated this code, but does not<br />
constitute and exhaustive list of potential sanctions. Unlike with<br />
Involuntary Administrative Withdrawal, a student may appeal<br />
any of these decisions.<br />
1. Warning – verbal or written that if the violation is<br />
continued, or repeated, the student may be subject to additional<br />
disciplinary action.<br />
2. Disciplinary Probation – a written reprimand outlining<br />
the violation a student has committed. The probation is for a<br />
specified period during which the student is considered not to<br />
be on good academic standing.<br />
3. Fines – Monetary charges for violation of the student codes<br />
such as parking violations, smoking in prohibited areas, etc.<br />
4. Restitution – compensation for loss, damage or injury.<br />
5. Loss of Privileges – loss or denial of privileges certain<br />
amenities, services, etc. for a specified period of time.<br />
6. Discretionary Sanctions: work assignments in service to the<br />
<strong>College</strong> or other miscellaneous assignments.<br />

8. Suspension – Will result in the student’s separation from the<br />
<strong>College</strong> for a specified period of time.<br />
9. Expulsion – removal of a student permanently from the<br />
<strong>College</strong>.<br />
E. Appeals<br />
A student may appeal the decision rendered by the Disciplinary<br />
Administrator and request a hearing before a Disciplinary<br />
Hearing Committee. The only grounds for such an appeal are<br />
prejudicial procedural error, prejudicial error as to findings of<br />
fact, discovery of substantial new facts unavailable at the time<br />
of the hearing, or excessive severity of the sanction. A Student<br />
Appeals Packet that outlines the Appeal Procedures will be<br />
provided by the Vice President of Student Services’ office.<br />
The Disciplinary Appeals Committee consists of six (6)<br />
members, including two faculty appointed by the Provost, one

CONTACT US …<br />
administrator and one staff member, both appointed by the Vice<br />
President of Human Resources, and two students appointed by<br />
the President or Vice President of Student Government. The<br />
administrator will serve as chairman of the committee. Four<br />
committee members shall constitute a quorum.<br />
The student may submit a written statement, may invite<br />
witnesses to testify on his/her behalf, and question a witness who<br />
appears against him/her. If the student elects not to attend the<br />
hearing, the charges will be reviewed as scheduled on the basis of<br />
the information available and a decision made.<br />
During the Disciplinary Hearing, an advisor they choose at their<br />
expense may assist a student. The student is responsible for<br />
presenting his or her own case and, therefore, advisors are not<br />
permitted to speak or participate directly in any hearing before<br />
the Disciplinary Appeals Committee.<br />
After hearing testimony and reviewing the documents submitted,<br />
the committee will retire to consider the evidence and render<br />
a decision. The committee will determine if the student did<br />
violate the Student Code of Conduct and, if so, what penalty to<br />
impose. The decision must be the results of a majority vote of<br />
the committee members present and voting.<br />
Upon reaching its decision, the committee will forward its<br />
recommendations to the Vice President for Student Services.<br />
Upon review and acceptance of the recommendations, the Vice<br />
President will notify the student formally, by registered mail, of<br />
the decision, with copies to the Registrar.<br />
Student ID Cards<br />
Every new student must obtain a new photo Express Card<br />
Student ID. This card is required to use the Bookstore, Common<br />
Computer Labs, Library, Student Health & Activities Center,<br />
check cashing on campus, transportation, on-campus vending<br />

November 19, 1974. This act provides access for students to<br />
information about themselves, permits students to challenge<br />
such information about themselves and limits the release of<br />
such information about students without the student’s explicit<br />

PARKING TIPS:<br />
• An <strong>Owens</strong> parking permit does not guarantee a parking space;<br />
it does allow you to park legally on campus, in accordance with<br />
parking regulations for students and staff.<br />
• Peak demand for parking spaces in campus lots is Monday<br />
through Thursday, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.<br />
• Arrive 30 minutes prior to the start of your class.<br />
• Become familiar with all of the available parking lots, as detailed<br />
on the campus maps.<br />
On the Toledo campus, it is a 5-minute walk from the parking<br />
lots located on the east side of campus, surrounding the Galleria<br />
Complex, to the center of the west side of campus, near <strong>College</strong><br />
Hall.<br />
Also on the Toledo campus, use the free, on-campus, Park & Ride<br />
shuttle service, Monday through Thursday, 7:30 a.m. to 5:10 p.m.<br />
The Park & Ride shuttle stops at 12 locations between the west and<br />
east sides of campus. It follows a continuous loop, taking about 10-<br />
15 minutes to complete. Look for the “Park & Ride” signage. This<br />
service is only available during the Fall and Spring semesters. More<br />
information on this service is online at www.owens.edu/schedules/<br />
campus_shuttle.html.<br />
• Try to take care of your non-class school business needs during<br />
non-peak times. We encourage you to use our online services to<br />
register and pay tuition and fees.<br />
• The <strong>College</strong> will be installing parking meters for visitors to<br />

Dental Hygiene Program Information<br />
Special Admission Requirements<br />
• Entrance requirements include high school graduation or its equivalent, ACT scores, and<br />
algebra and chemistry with a “C” grade or better. This is a selective admissions program and<br />
there are a limited number of students admitted each Summer Semester.<br />
• Students entering the program must have current certification in Basic Life Support<br />
for Health Care Providers and meet health requirements. Contact the Selective Health<br />
Admissions Coordinator for specific admissions criteria, procedures and final date for<br />
receipt of application.<br />

successful completion of these courses, students may reapply for admission. In addition<br />
to the graduation requirements for all students, Dental Hygiene students must maintain a<br />
2.0 average or better in Dental Hygiene subjects. Students failing to maintain this average<br />
or who fail a Dental Hygiene course may be readmitted one time only on a space available<br />
basis.<br />
Non-Academic Readmission Policy<br />
Students who leave the Dental Hygiene program for other than academic reasons may<br />
request readmission and be readmitted providing there is an opening in the program.<br />
Academic Readmission<br />
Readmission will be determined on a space available basis with non-academic readmission<br />
having priority over academic readmission. A student requesting readmission after dismissal<br />
for academic reasons must complete the following:<br />
1. Retake all courses in which the student received a “D” or “F” grade and the<br />
student must receive a “C” or better upon repeating each course.<br />

research shows that risks are negligible when appropriate infection control procedure/barrier<br />
techniques are used. Upon entering the program, there is in-depth training to meet the<br />
protocol for a hazard-free, safe learning environment.<br />
Recruitment of Clients<br />
Dental Hygiene Students learn and practice skills in the on-campus dental hygiene clinic.<br />
On going recruitment of clients for the clinic is necessary for each student to meet their<br />
program requirements. Students will be expected to recruit clients in addition to the client<br />
that seeks routine care in the clinic.

Six-Sigma<br />
Many industrial and service sector businesses across<br />
America have adopted the principles of Six-Sigma to<br />
provide a framework for quality, cost, and delivery<br />
excellence. Six-Sigma is a strategy that focuses on<br />
variation reduction and control in all facets of business.<br />
It has provided billions of dollars of reduced costs and<br />
improved revenue for a wide variety of corporations<br />
over just the past few years. It has, in short, captured<br />
the attention of corporate America.<br />

Practitioners of Six-Sigma are called Green Belts<br />
and Black Belts. The first level of practitioner is the<br />
Green Belt. The Green Belt is trained in basic quality<br />
tools and processes, enhanced by training in the<br />
fundamentals and strategy of Six-Sigma. The Black<br />
Belt has additional training in more advanced statistical<br />
tools. Green Belts provide valuable technical assistance<br />
to Black Belts during projects but often carry full<br />
projects to completion when advanced statistical skills<br />
are unnecessary.<br />

Campus and on the Findlay-area Campus Child Care Center. The Office of<br />
Enrollment Services on either campus also has application packets.<br />
NAEYC Code of Ethical Conduct<br />
This code offers guidelines for responsible behavior and sets forth a common basis<br />

Background Checks<br />
According to the Ohio Senate Bill 38, as enacted October 29, 1993, all individuals<br />
engaged in child care activity must complete a background check by the Ohio<br />
Bureau of Criminal Investigation and Identification. Individuals who have been<br />
Ohio residents for less than five years also must complete a Federal Bureau of<br />
Investigation check. These background checks must reveal no convictions for any of<br />
the criminal offenses listed in the Ohio Senate Bill 38 in order for the student to be<br />
accepted to the program. The student assumes background checks costs.<br />

The faculty has the responsibility to both the public and the teaching profession to<br />
award a degree or license only when the candidate has demonstrated a satisfactory level<br />
of professional knowledge, skills and dispositions. Students in ECE are specializing<br />

also to the demonstration of professional knowledge, skills and dispositions. Further,<br />
candidates must exhibit integrity and character consistent with the standards of<br />
ethical principles set forth by appropriate professional associations and Ohio law.<br />

These programs are an innovative way of<br />
delivering traditional education through<br />
direct application and experience.<br />
Traditional courses are broken into<br />
modules that reflect the skills necessary<br />
for a specific occupation or position<br />
in this fast-paced, technology-driven<br />
market.<br />
FLEXIBLE CLASS TIMES:<br />
Specific classroom meeting times and<br />
lectures are eliminated. Students meet<br />
with instructors in a lab environment<br />
when it is convenient for them to<br />
complete assignments and tasks for a<br />
specific module.<br />
TRAINING:<br />
Students complete written assignments,<br />
simulations and/or lab exercises to<br />
demonstrate their skills and new<br />
abilities in each module. Students may<br />
spend extra time with instructors and<br />
mentors in areas in which they have<br />
difficulties. Additionally, students may<br />
accelerate through their program based<br />
on their availability and ambition.<br />
The Skilled Trades Technologies program is offered in response to<br />
expressed training needs from local industries. <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong><br />
has developed an application-oriented program directly targeted to the<br />
requirements of a modern manufacturing environment. An advisory<br />
committee, representing a cross-section of area business and industry,<br />
has provided valuable input in the development of this program. <strong>Owens</strong><br />
<strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> offers training in a modern facility with laboratories<br />
that provide hands-on training supported by knowledgeable instructors.<br />

Cooperative Automotive Service<br />
Technician (CAST) Option<br />
A cooperative education program<br />
This option is designed to provide the student with<br />
training on diagnosis and repair of the automobile. Oncampus<br />
classroom/laboratory training is combined with<br />
hands-on experience working in Anderson’s Tireman, BP<br />
ProCare service facility or an independent automotive<br />
service provider to reinforce the learning process. The<br />
field experience consists of working 25-30 hours weekly<br />
under the supervision of an experienced technician at<br />
the sponsoring facility. Students in the CAST program<br />
will attend classes for part of the day and work at the<br />
sponsoring facility during part of the day.<br />
The program sponsor is responsible for employing the<br />
student during the field experience portion of the program<br />
and for tuition, fees and textbook expenses for the oncampus<br />
instruction. While obtaining a sponsor is the<br />
student’s responsibility, <strong>Owens</strong> <strong>Community</strong> <strong>College</strong> will<br />
assist in locating a suitable sponsor when needed. In order<br />
to be considered for this program, the student needs to<br />
submit an application and complete the assessment test in<br />
reading, writing and mathematics. Applicants are expected<br />
to meet the minimum requirements for placement in<br />
ENG 111 and MTH 114 before being accepted into the<br />
program.<br />
1 The CAST courses meet for 16 weeks and therefore the<br />
contact hours per week are half of those listed.<br />
