2019-2020 Catalog 2019-2020 Catalog Welcome Welcome to Warner Pacific University! Our Mt. Tabor campus is located in the heart of Portland, Oregon—a vibrant, progressive and beautiful city. Warner Pacific University is a Christ-centered urban liberal arts university dedicated to providing students from diverse backgrounds an education that prepares them to engage actively in a constantly changing world. Over recent years, we have come to better understand our mission statement and how it applies to the unique setting of our campus. We seek to educate students who welcome the learning that comes with living in an increasingly diverse and thriving urban environment. Four core themes run through our mission statement and guide the holistic educational process at Warner Pacific University. First and foremost, we are Christ-centered. We use that language intentionally! We believe the life and teaching of Jesus Christ provide the best framework for a learning community. We welcome students from diverse backgrounds to come and engage in a learning experience that provides the best of community participation and strives to reflect the character of Christ. Second, Warner Pacific University is committed to collaborating with and for our urban context. We are fortunate to be located in the City of Portland, where students can engage in learning, serving, leading, interning and working in this city. The world is becoming increasingly urban, and we believe students will be best prepared if they experience opportunities to navigate and apply their learning in an urban context. Beyond that, we believe we have a tremendous opportunity to love and serve our neighbors as we seek the flourishing of our city. Third, we believe that a liberal arts education provides the best foundation to prepare students to engage actively in a world and economy that is constantly changing. Increasingly, students are pursuing career-focused majors. We believe our liberal arts core provides an important foundation for students to gain the essential skills for leadership and success in all of life’s pursuits. The liberal arts provide a common understanding of our context, develop students’ ability to learn and be adaptable throughout their lifetimes, and cultivate the ability to think critically and make good decisions. A central element of our curriculum is the Humanities Core, which equips students with the critical reading and thinking skills to help them decipher good answers through the complexities that arise in engaging real-world questions. As a result, you will be thoroughly prepared for leadership and service as you encounter life’s paradoxes and the challenges of your life’s calling. Finally, we are committed to investing in the formation and success of students from diverse backgrounds. We believe a Christ-centered urban education at Warner Pacific University should be accessible and welcoming. We embrace students from diverse backgrounds as they study and live in a community that is characterized by low student to faculty ratios (small classes), intentional mentoring, and a support system that encourages intellectual, personal, spiritual and vocational development. Many new possibilities await you as you embark on your educational journey at Warner Pacific University. Make the most of each class, each friendship, and each opportunity you encounter – our desire is for you to flourish in every aspect of your life. Sincerely, Andrea P. Cook, Ph.D. President Warner Pacific 2019-2020 Catalog 1 History and Accreditation Warner Pacific University is operated under the auspices of the Church of God (Anderson, Indiana) as a place of education and service for people, regardless of their denomination, who desire a quality liberal arts education in a vital Christian community. Founded in 1937 in Spokane, Washington, it was incorporated as Pacific Bible College and prepared church leaders during its early years. A desire for a more central location in the Pacific Northwest led to a move to Portland in 1940. In 1959, the name of the institution was changed to Warner Pacific College in honor of one of the early founders of the church as well as to reflect its growing liberal arts emphasis. In 2018, the name was changed toWarner Pacific University to more accurately reflect the growth and development it has experienced in the scope of the programs offered and the scale of what its graduates are achieving. It has been accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (8060 165th Ave. NE, Suite 100, Redmond, WA 98052; Telephone: 425.558.4224; FAX: 425.376.0596) since 1961. Additionally, the university is approved by the State of Oregon (www.doj. state.or.us/finfraud/) to offer degree programs and for the training of teachers in identified subject areas. Warner Pacific has also been approved to offer specific degree programs in the State of Washington (see page 236). Proviso Warner Pacific University is an equal opportunity employer, which seeks faculty and staff who have a personal commitment to Jesus Christ and to the educational mission of the university as a Christ-centered liberal arts institution. Warner Pacific University does not discriminate in its student admission and employment practices and provides equal opportunity for all students, applicants and employees regardless of race, color, sex, national origin, disability, age, veteran status and any other status protected by laws and regulations. While every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the information in this catalog, Warner Pacific University reserves the right to make changes at any time without prior notice. This catalog is not a contract between Warner Pacific University and current or prospective students. Additions to the curriculum for the ensuing year are published each fall in the master schedule. Degree requirements are effective according to the semester of matriculation to the institution, while policies and processes may change from catalog year to catalog year.

  • 1.) to What Extent Will Marylhurst Provide A
    1.) To what extent will Marylhurst provide a “teach-out” beyond summer 2018 for students who can’t easily advance their academic careers through other means? I’m thinking particularly of art therapy students. Marylhurst is providing courses this summer for students who are able to graduate under that timeline. We are not able financially to provide coursework at Marylhurst University beyond that. We are required to have a “teach-out plan” by our accrediting body, NWCCU (the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities), that includes a description of what we are doing to help students finish their programs. We have been working with NWCCU to ensure that we have a satisfactory teach-out plan. Marylhurst University’s “teach-out plan” has three components and has been verified as appropriate by NWCCU. 1. Summer Term: Marylhurst will remain open to help students make progress towards completion of, or to complete, their programs of study. Our analysis shows that between 80 and 125 students can complete their degrees during summer term. If at all possible, Marylhurst will scholarship students for these classes. 2. Teach-Out Agreements: These are “written agreements between institutions that are accredited or pre-accredited by a nationally recognized accrediting agency…” These agreements might include an agreement to accept a cohort of students or the transfer of an entire program provided that the accepting institution can meet their governing and accreditation bodies’ requirements. 3. Student Transfers: Students are able to transfer to complete their degrees at the institution of their choice. We are doing everything we can to help facilitate this and make the process easy for them to navigate.

  • January 25, 2008, at a Reduced Rate Compared to On-Site Registration
    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.

Together with Corban’s outstanding faculty and dedicated staff, I heartily embrace the idea that Christians are to be salt and light in their culture. We are to make every difference possible for Jesus Christ. We are to do this not just by spreading the good news of the Gospel, but also by exerting a Christian influence in every sphere of life—including politics, the media, the arts and the academy. At Corban, we are committed to equipping a new generation to think critically and operate from our one central foundation, Jesus Christ. To provide a Christian higher education is to equip today’s students to approach, respond to and serve a world that’s in desperate need around us.

  • 2019 Annual Report
    Annual Report 2019 Something is happening here. Christ is here, and his coming brings us joy! from the president Let all who arrive be welcomed as Christ. Dear friends, What has marked the momentous years in your life? Weddings? Births? New ventures and adventures? The past year has been truly momentous for Mount Angel. Long-planned projects came to fruition —thanks to the unceasing prayers of our monks and friends, the generosity of our donors, and some dedicated beer fans! Benedictine Brewery opened its St. Michael Taproom to the public a year ago and has recently sailed through its second annual Oktoberfest with larger revenues and thumbs-up reviews. More important, the taproom’s guests enjoy meeting the monks and learning about Mount Angel. Join them! Have you had a chance to visit the newly re-opened Saint Benedict Guesthouse and Retreat Center? Its welcoming new spaces have inspired our guests and renewed the monks’ ministry of hospitality. Whether you live near or far, please consider reserving a room for the spiritual retreat your soul needs. It’s waiting for you. Thanks to careful planning, the Abbey’s historic library will be refurbished in time to celebrate its 50th anniversary in 2020. True to its Benedictine heritage, the library represents the tradition of sharing and preserving the best of theology and culture. Remember, if you live within a 50-mile radius of Mount Angel, you qualify for a library card. So much more has happened this year, including a nationwide downturn in priestly vocations and seminary enrollment. Mount Angel Seminary meets this trend with a spirit of confidence.
