I am thankful that you have decided to become part of the Oklahoma Christian University family! There is no better place to launch your career and lifelong service to the Kingdom. You will find our Christian campus environment to be welcoming and friendly, a place you can proudly call home while you earn a highly respected academic degree. Everyone at OC – our outstanding faculty, dedicated staff, and your fellow students – is committed to ensuring that you have a wonderful, rewarding experience just like thousands of students before you. OC is my home. And that’s the experience we want you to have here. Home is where you learn, grow, connect with others, and take some risks. Home doesn’t prepare you to stay there. It prepares you for life, to be able to go out into the world and succeed. And that’s the experience we want you to have here. You will leave OC well prepared academically, socially, and spiritually for an effective life of service to your family, your profession, your community, and your church. And someday, when you long to return home, we want you to know that you’ll always be welcomed at your alma mater. You will, of course, get out of your experience at Oklahoma Christian exactly what you put into it. We encourage you to work hard. Our academic programs are rigorous. Your professors are well qualified and are here to help you achieve your academic objectives. They will go beyond the call of duty to ensure you succeed. We hope you will also take advantage of the myriad of Oklahoma Christian offerings and activities. Whether you’re bonding with fellow students in academic or social service clubs, supporting our excellent intercollegiate athletic teams, participating in intramural sports, enjoying regular Bible studies and working on mission and ministry campaigns through our Ethos spiritual life program, participating in professional internships throughout the Oklahoma City area, or studying and seeing the world while living at Das Millicanhaus, OC’s Vienna, Austria campus, you will find these activities and others will enrich your OC experience and make you a more rounded student. Again, welcome to Oklahoma Christian. Welcome Home! Sincerely, John deSteiguer 2019-2020 ACADEMIC CATALOG 2 A MESSAGE FROM THE CHIEF ACADEMIC OFFICER Welcome! You know that OC truly is home to many alumni, thousands of students, and hundreds of employees who care about “your growth in ‘heart, soul, mind, and strength.’” You will hear this phrase on campus. It is familiar to you because Scripture describes our pursuit of God this way in Mark 12 and Deuteronomy 6, to name only two instances. This university catalog includes or refers to many elements of OC’s operations, but it is at heart an academic document – describing how OC’s many colleges, schools, departments, and programs offer a wide range of courses, majors, minors, and tracks designed to help you reach the high goals for which you have chosen a selective university. Go to class. Come by our offices. Invest in your education. Please pay careful attention to these details provided to help you graduate on time and with the success you’re seeking. Now that you’re in college, this catalog also describes a vibrant culture with new words and things you will learn about – co-curriculum, internships, practicum, capstone, studies abroad, service learning, and others. All this is curated by mentors who

    Oregon Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators www.oasfaaonline.org Nov/Dec/Jan 2007-2008 Newsletter Executive Council A publication of the Oregon Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators, a not-for-profit membership organization Leslie Limper President President’s letter Crisanne Werner President-Elect Whew, what a year! For those of you who have been in the financial aid profession for a few years, I think you’ll agree that 2007 was one of the Tracey Lehman more memorable ones. We’ve seen more scrutiny, more regulations, and Past-President more challenges, but we’ve also seen more grant money for students and that, for me, is the highlight of 2007. New federal programs (such as the Melinda Dunnick TEACH grant) and changing eligibility criteria (such as the Shared Vice President Responsibility Model for the Oregon Opportunity Grant) will mean more money for our Community Colleges students in 2008, but will also mean more challenges for our offices as we implement these programs. Terri Crawford Vice President As you encounter these challenges in 2008, I encourage you to use OASFAA as a resource. Independent Institutions OASFAA exists to provide you and your office with training and support, as well as opportunities to ask questions, find answers, and explore options. The OASFAA Executive Anny Hawkins Council will work throughout 2008 to enhance existing training opportunities and provide Vice President support for all of Oregon’s financial aid community. Proprietary Schools We welcome your input and participation! Carolyn Prescott Vice President Leslie Limper Public 4-Year Schools Patti Brady-Glassman Secretary Donna L.
