Courses listed in this catalog are subject to change through normal academic process.

Corban University Catalog – 2014-2016 1 CORBAN UNIVERSITY Dear Friend of Corban: Thank you for taking the time to review the Corban University catalog. 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.

    Educational Opportunities Program Oregon State University 337 Waldo Hall Corvallis, Oregon 97331-6405 P 541-737-3628 F 541-737-3998 Eop.oregonstate.edu To the EOP Family, We were so saddened to learn of the recent passing of Dr. Larry Griggs. He had been at OSU since 1972, completing his doctorate and going on to lead the Educational Opportunities Program for 22 years. Dr. Griggs served as a campus leader, a role model, and an example of how we can provide the best support possible for students, especially those who have not had the same advantages as others. His goal was to “level the playing field” for students of color, those who are the first generation in their families to attend college or on financial aid, students from rural backgrounds, veterans, students with disabilities . Larry not only provided leadership within EOP but also across the campus and around the state. He served on the Faculty Senate Executive Committee and was integral in starting many important initiatives which had long-lasting effects on the curriculum, policies, and procedures of Oregon State. All who knew him, including decades of alumni spread across the country, mourn his passing and are saddened by such a loss. EOP is developing plans to commemorate Larry’s many contributions. We will be announcing opportunities to join others in remembering his life and work. One of the best ways to honor Larry would be to donate to the Larry Griggs Scholarship Fund, which provides scholarship support for EOP students. Please see this link: https://securelb.imodules.com/s/359/foundation/index.aspx?sid=359&gid=34&pgid=1982&cid=3007& bledit=1&dids=869 As Larry himself said and truly believed, it is essential to support students in reaching their goals because “that is the only way we can we can really change things in the world."

  • Welcome to OSU! Self-Guided Tour of Campus
    Welcome to OSU! Self-Guided Tour of Campus Oregon State University’s main campus is over 400 acres and has 121 buildings-needless to say you will only have a chance to see a small part of it! Tuition was $10 a term in 1870 when the first degrees were awarded to a class of three (one woman and two men). There are currently over 27,000 students from all 50 states and 93 foreign countries. The Tour: (Sites can be visited in any order) Memorial Union & Quad In the Quad: The MU opened in 1928 and remains a popular place with students today. The quad (lawn) out front often has information booths, live music concerts, and students hanging out doing homework or basking in the Oregon sun. In the lounge: This beautiful area, also known as the students’ living room, features couches and chairs for between-class studying or naps. At noon on Fridays, the lounge hosts concerts for students and the public by OSU music groups including parts of the orchestra and a capella groups. All of the flags throughout the hall represent a student or faculty member from that particular country. On main level: If you are looking for a bite to eat, there are a couple of great places to get a bite on the West end of the MU. OSU students can either use cash or a debit card to purchase meals. On campus, there are 17 different restaurants, cafés, and stores to choose from. In the basement: During any free time that students have here at OSU, they can be found down in the basement playing pool on one of the many pool tables, bowling at OSU’s recreational bowling alley, and playing video games with friends.

    Get to Know OSU Self-Guided Tour of Campus Oregon State University’s main campus is over 400 acres and has 121 buildings – needless to say you will only have a chance to see a small part of it! Tuition was $10 a term in 1870 when the first degrees were awarded to a class of three (one woman and two men). There are currently over 19,000 students from all 50 states and 90 foreign countries. 1. Memorial Union & Quad In the quad or on the front steps. In 1920 the students proposed plans for a Memorial Union to honor heroes from WWI. The site was excavated by steam shovel but rocks and dirt were removed by horses with carts. The MU opened in 1928 and remains a popular place with students today. The quad (lawn) out front often has information booths, live music, and students just hanging out. Go up the steps from the main entrance, then up the stairs into the lounge. There are two murals in the Rotunda as you go up the stairs: one reflects the sea grant studies at OSU and the other is a WWI battlefield in France representing why the MU was built. The MU Main Lounge (called the students’ living room) features couches and chairs for between-class studying or naps. All of the flags overhead symbolize a student or faculty member from that particular country. On the main level: Stop into the Bookstore (down the hall to your left) for some orange-and-black Beaver apparel or have a lunch break at the Commons (down the hall to the right) and mingle with OSU students and staff who eat and study here during the day.
