All tuition deposits are non�refundable. Tuition refunds will only be granted upon the completion and submission of an official withdrawal form to the Student Services Central, either before the classes begin, or during the published refund period. Simply notifying the classroom instructor is insufficient. Any student who does not withdraw prior to the semester start date and remains unpaid will be liable for tuition and fees. Non�attendance does not limit student liability. Students are responsible for knowing the deadlines for withdrawal and abiding by them. Students who officially withdraw from a credit course or from the college may be eligible for a refund of tuition in accordance with the following schedule: FULL SEMESTER CREDIT CLASSES: Prior to the start date of the semester�.�.�.�.�.�.�.100% Duringthefirstweek�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.75% Duringthesecondweek�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.50% Duringthethirdweek�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.25% Afterthethirdweek�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.0% Red Flag Policy / Certificate of Residence HALF SEMESTER CLASSES (Eight week term or less): Prior to the start date of the semester�.�.�.�.�.�.�.100% Duringthefirstweek�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.25% Duringthesecondweek�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.0% The first day that classes are offered as scheduled by the College shall be considered the first day of the semester, and the first week of classes for purposes of this section shall be deemed to have ended when seven calendar days, including the first day of classes, have elapsed. NON�CREDIT CLASSES: The following refund policy will apply to all non�credit classes: Prior to the first day of class�.�.�.�.�.�.�.�.100% refund On the day class begins and thereafter�.�.�.no refund Note: 1. Full�time students are eligible for tuition refunds only when their semester course load drops below 12 credits. The refund will be calculated by determining the difference between the previous full�time enrollment threshold of 12 credits and the new part�time enrollment and then applying the appropriate refund percentage to the difference in dropped credits. 2. Part�time students, who drop classes during the refund period, will be charged tuition and fees for the credits enrolled and a tuition liability and fees on classes dropped. The only exception will be if the courses dropped and added are the exact same course (Ex: ENG101 B dropped and ENG101 F added). 3. Refund payments are not immediate. Allow approximately six weeks for processing and mailing during fall/spring semesters and four weeks during summer/winter sessions. 4. Courses eight weeks or less in length are subject to a refund schedule appropriate to the length of the course. See applicable publication at the time courses are publicized. 5. A course cancelled by the College will be refunded all tuition and fees relative to the cancelled course. 6. Inquiries regarding refund policy exceptions must be in writing to the Tuition Credit Review Board. Tuition Credit request forms are available at the Student Services Central and on the college website. Title IV Federal Refund Policy Title IV Federal Financial Aid students who withdraw or stop attending the college during the first 60% of the semester will have their financial aid recalculated according to the Higher Education Amendments of 1998, 34 CFR part 668.22. Some grant recipients may owe repayment to both the institution and the Federal government as the result of this recalculation. � Red Flag Policy Identity Theft Prevention Program Orange County Community College is committed to preventing fraud associated with the misuse of identifying information (identity theft) of students, staff, faculty or others who have relationships with the College to obtain educational or financial services. In compliance with the Federal Trade Commission Red Flags Rule (16 CFR 681.2) under the Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act of 2003, the College will employ its Red Flag Identity Theft Prevention Program to identify accounts susceptible to fraud, recognize possible indications of identity theft associated with those accounts, devise methods to detect such activity and respond appropriately when such activity is detected. In compliance with the Federal Trade Commission�s Red Flags Rule (16 CFR 681.2), the College will require all individuals requesting services to provide a SUNY Orange Identification Card, a driver�s license or other government issued identification (with photo). � Certificate of Residence All students are charged the appropriate rate of tuition and fees depending on the number of credits taken and the student's area of residence. Please follow the instructions listed below. The application for Certificate of Residence can be obtained from the Student Services Central. It is also included in all registration material and is available on the College website. In accordance with New York State Education Law, Section 6301, each full�time and part�time student residing in New York State must file a Certificate of Residence. The County of Legal Residence for a New York State resident attending a community college contributes to the College a portion of the College's cost for providing services to the student. The basis for assessing counties for this money is the Certificate of Residence. Note: A person does not acquire New York State Domicile (legal residence) simply by being physically present in New York State for a period of 12 months or for the sole purpose of attending a New York State College or University. If your principal or permanent home has not been New York State for a 12�month period immediately prior to the start date of the semester, you will be considered an out�of�state student for tuition purposes. Certificates are valid for 12 months from the date of issue. A new Certificate must be submitted each year. To prove residence for any county in New York State you must: Have resided in New York State for one year AND resided in your home county for six months prior to the first day of classes. Withdrawal from Course / Holds / Early Registration The appropriate documentation and/or certificate must be received within 30 days from the start date of the semester, otherwise the non�resident tuition charge cannot be removed from your bill. Payment (less non�resident tuition) must be made by the established deadline dates. Adjusted bills are available upon request or can be viewed on Self�Service Banner. ORANGE COUNTY RESIDENTS Complete the Affidavit/Application for Certificate of Residence. Include this with your adjusted payment (subtract non�resident tuition amount from balance due). NEW YORK STATE RESIDENTS FROM COUNTIES OTHER THAN ORANGE COUNTY A student from a New York county other than Orange is required to submit a Certificate of Residence from their county of legal residence covering 6 months prior to the first day of classes. To secure the required certificate, follow the procedures below: Contact the Treasurer's Office or Chief Fiscal Officer of your home county to inquire about acceptable forms of proof you will need to prove your residency. Once you have obtained a Certificate of Residence, you must submit the original to SUNY Orange Student Services Central. This will entitle you to pay the resident tuition rate. Please note per New York State Education Law, NY state counties are only required to issue and honor Certificates of Residence dated no earlier than 60 days prior to the start of classes and no later than 30 days after. After the first 30 days of classes, counties will no longer issue certificates of residence and payment for the non�resident tuition charge then becomes the student's responsibility. Late certificates will be accepted by our office, but your account will only be reduced if your county accepts our billing. NEW YORK STATE RESIDENTS WHO HAVE LIVED IN MORE THAN ONE COUNTY DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS Contact each county in which you resided, as a Certificate of Residence will be required from each of those counties. Proceed as indicated above. Students who fail to meet the full six month residence requirement will be charged the non�resident tuition. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR IMMIGRANT AND UNDOCUMENTED ALIENS Immigrant Aliens must have held a Permanent Resident Alien Identification Card ("green card") for one full year and be able to establish New York State residency to be eligible for resident tuition rates. Foreign students on the following visas do not qualify for the residence rate: F(student), B(visitor), J(exchange), C, D, H2A, H3, H4 if on H2/H3, M, O, P, Q, R, TN, or TD visas. Effective July 1998, certain undocumented aliens may be eligible for the resident tuition rate. The undocumented alien must have graduated from a New York State high school and applied for SUNY admissions within five years of receiving the New York State diploma. The undocumented alien must complete a notarized affidavit stating that the student has filed or intends to file an application to legalize his or her immigration status. Providing the college with proof of residency is an important step in your registration process. Students who fail to present documentation will be charged non�resident tuition. Please contact the Bursar at (845) 341�4830 if you have any questions about the proper way to complete the requirement. � Withdrawal from Course To formally withdraw from a credit or non�credit course, a student must complete a withdrawal form and return it to Student Services Central. As of the day of receipt of this form, the appropriate refund schedule will apply. Students who receive financial aid from any of the following sources: Federal Programs (Title IV)�Pell Grant, Supplemental Equal Opportunity Grant (SEOG), Perkins Loan, Federal Family Education Loans and State Grants may be responsible for repaying a portion of their aid if they drop or stop attending classes during the refund period. Withdrawal from classes may also affect eligibility for financial aid for the following semester or academic year. Students will be notified by mail if monies are due the College. � Holds Students who have unmet financial obligations or who have failed to comply with College requirements are not permitted to register or receive grades until the hold is cleared with the issuing office. Further, information relating to student records, such as certification of attendance and diplomas are also withheld. � Early Registration for Students Enrolled full�time degree�seeking students are encouraged to register early for the next semester. Registration during designated periods (see academic calendar) will aid students in obtaining seats in desired classes. Financial Aid SUNY Orange participates in most major federal and state financial aid programs and offers institutional scholarships as well. There is a Financial Aid office at each college location to assist eligible students in removing the financial barriers that may discourage them from attending college. All students are urged to file an application for financial aid. In order for the Financial Aid office to finalize eligibility or award financial aid, all required documentation requested must be submitted. The FAFSA is the first step in the financial aid process. You can complete the FAFSA to apply for federal student financial aid, such as the PELL Grant, student loans, and federal work study. The FAFSA is available on the FAFSA website www.fafsa.ed.gov. Financial aid is available in many forms: grants, scholarships, loans, and employment opportunities. Federal, state, and local guidelines determine the amount and types of financial aid offered to individual students. You must reapply each year for most of these programs. Students usually are offered financial aid packages consisting of a combination of grants, scholarships, employment and loans. Grants and scholarships are considered "gift" assistance and need not be repaid. Loans are offered at low interest rates and can be repaid over an extended period of time beginning six months after the student graduates or enrolls for less than 6 credits at the College. If you are offered aid in the form of a job (Federal Work�Study), it is paid at an hourly rate. The Financial Aid Office is located on the third floor of the George F. Shepard Student Center in Middletown, (845) 341�4190, and in Student Services Central Kaplan Hall Room 110 in Newburgh, (845) 341�9502. � College Costs at SUNY Orange The direct costs that all full�time SUNY Orange students must pay each academic year are: Non�Commuter Commuter Out of State Direct Student Cost $6,628 $6,628 $11,114 Additional indirect educational costs that students should consider: Room and Board 3,000 6,000 6,000 Transportation 1,350 1,350 1,350 Personal 1,766 2,466 2,466 Total $12,744 $16,444 $17,230 � The above indirect costs are approximate and are used by SUNY Orange to determine the need for financial aid. 5ll figures are subject to possible change. � Tuition is based on the cost for the current school year. � 5ll Direct Cost figures above are subject to possible change. � Double tuition is charged to out-of-state students and international students. � The above Estimated Costs are used by Orange County Community College to determine the need for financial aid. � �Non-commuter� refers to dependent students living away from home and/or independent students living on their own. � If an independent student is living with a non-parent family member who is supplying room and board, the student�s Financial 5id budget will be adjusted accordingly. � Students who have costs for child care should submit proof of those additional expenses. � General Eligibility Requirements Eligibility depends on many factors. To receive aid from the federal and state student aid programs offered at SUNY Orange, you must satisfy the following: � be officially admitted � have a high school equivalency (HSE) diploma � be a U. S. citizen or permanent resident � meet the minimum academic criteria specified for each financial aid program (see �Federal Standard for Satisfactory Academic Progress� in this section) � have a valid Social Security number � not owe a Federal PELL, Academic Competitiveness Grant, National Smart, Teach Grant, or FSEOG over�award � not be in default on a Federal Stafford Loan or Federal Direct Loan � be enrolled in an eligible degree or certificate program � all credits must apply to the degree major � must attend courses that you are registered for Non�Qualification for Independence (factors thatdo not qualify a student for independent status) � Parents refusal to contribute to a student�s education � Parents are unwilling to provide information for the application or verification � Parents do not claim the student as a dependent for income tax purposes � Student demonstrates total self�sufficiency How to Apply for Financial Aid This information is provided as a guide and is subject to change without notice to comply with federal, state, and institutional policies. You can only receive financial aid at one college at a time. If you are attending a second college a consortium agreement must be completed between the colleges in order to declare a home school. A Financial Aid Application must be completed to be considered for all types of grants, loans, scholarships, and work opportunities at SUNY Orange. Some awards and grants may require additional forms. To apply, take these steps: � Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) each year. Submit the FAFSA application online at the FAFSA website: www.fafsa.ed.gov. � When completing the FAFSA, be sure to list SUNY Orange's name and school code 002876. The college address is 115 South St., Middletown NY 10940. Submit the completed and electronically signed FAFSA to the Federal Central Processor. � You should receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) Financial Aid within 3 weeks after submitting your application to the processor. Students are able to check the status and view the results from the FAFSA application online. You should retain the SAR in your personal files. � If SUNY Orange is listed on the SAR, the Financial Aid office will receive the student's SAR electronically. Three weeks after submitting the FAFSA application, you should check your �MySUNYOrange� account for receipt of an electronic SAR. � Your FAFSA may be selected in a process called verification, and the school may request certain financial documents. Verification documents can be obtained from the Financial Aid office or downloaded from the Financial Aid documents website, or link to the MySUNYOrange section labeled �Student Requirements� on your �MySUNYOrange� account. If additional documentation is required, you will receive a tracking e�mail stating you have additional documents outstanding. If there are questions remaining, the student can contact the Financial Aid office at his or her campus. You should respond quickly to all correspondence received from the Financial Aid office. Documents are processed in the order they are received. After the Financial Aid Office receives your SAR and all requested information, the staff will: � Review the information. � Make an award based on eligibility and availability of funds. � Send a preliminary award letter to first�time freshmen. � Sophomores are directed to view their awards online and print the award letter at your �MySUNYOrange� account. The award letter lists the types and amounts of aid awarded. � The award letter may also list additional requirements that you must fulfill before funds can be disbursed. � Your awards may change after the verification process, or changes in enrollment. If this occurs you will receive an e�mail notification directing you to your MySUNYOrange Award Letter page. You should keep your award letter with your SAR. You must keep your name, address, e�mail address and telephone number current with the Bursar's Office on campus. When a student is determined to be eligible for financial aid, tuition and fees may be covered to the extent of the aid, provided the student's financial aid file is completed by the target due date. If the aid is not sufficient to cover tuition and fees, the student is responsible for the balance, which is due by the Bursar�s officially published due date. If the aid exceeds the cost of actual tuition and fees, a refund will be issued to the student from the Student Accounts Office (See published disbursements dates on the Bursar�s web pages). Summer Sessions Please contact the Financial Aid Office for further information on requirements for summer financial aid. Please visit our website at www.sunyorange.edu/financialaid. Target Dates This information is provided as a guide and is subject to change without notice to comply with federal, state, and institutional policies. Target dates are not deadlines. Target dates ensure that the financial aid funds you are eligible to receive will be on your account for tuition deferment before the payment due date. After these target dates, applications for financial aid and loans can still be processed, but you may have to arrange for alternative means of payment, such as using your own funds or participating in the Tuition Payment Plan, until your financial aid processing is completed. Target Dates for PELL Grants and Direct Loans: � Fall Enrollees: July 1st � Spring Enrollees: December 1st Target Date for Campus�Based Aid [Including Perkins Loans, Federal Work�Study (FWS), and Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (SEOG)]: � Fall Enrollees: April 15th � Award Package Offering � Once you have been awarded aid, you will receive an award letter that lists the various types of aid you are eligible to receive during the award year. Awards are based on full�time (12 or more credit hours) status; some awards may be adjusted if you do not enroll as a full�time student. However, aid will automatically be pro�rated at the time of disbursement if you are not full�time. If it is determined that you are not eligible for aid after it is awarded, the Financial Aid office is required to adjust your awards. � Students will automatically be reviewed for Federal PELL Grants and FSEOG because they are considered gift aid and do not have to be repaid. Students also will be reviewed for Federal Work�Study and Perkins loans as well. NYS TAP grants are automatically reviewed. Students may be awarded grants, scholarships, work study and federal subsidized and unsubsidized loan funds up to the cost of college attendance. These loan programs require you to accept your loans on your MySUNYOrange web pages. You will need to go to www.studentloans.gov web site to fill out an Electronic Master Promissory Note, and Entrance Counseling. Students who apply by the priority processing due date will be considered for all available funds. Some funds are limited and are awarded to eligible students based on greatest need and meeting the April 15th deadline. Financial Aid � Evaluating Your Award Package � You should evaluate your award package carefully. � Remember: loans must be paid back. � Be sure to check whether or not your living expenses will be as high as the estimated allowance projected by your school; if they aren�t, you may need to adjust your borrowing. To get an idea of your college expenses, use the Budget Calculator on the government website at http://direct.ed.gov/BudgetCalc/budget.html or use the Net Price Calculator at www.sunyorange.edu/financialaid/index.shtml. � To get an idea of your monthly loan payments after you graduate, see the Repayment Calculator at http://studentaid.ed.gov/repay�loans/understand/plans/#estimator. � You have the right to decline the loan or to request a smaller amount. � Remember that loan money must be paid back with interest. You should only borrow as a last resort. � Federal Standard For Satisfactory Academic Progress Federal regulations (Sections 668.16(e).668.32(f) and 668.34) require that schools monitor the academic progress of all applicants for federal financial assistance and that the schools certify that applicants are making satisfactory academic progress toward earning their degree. This determination of progress must be made at least once a year for degree programs, and at the end of every semester for certificate programs before the Financial Aid Office disburses any federal aid funds for the subsequent semester. Federal Title IV programs include: PELL, Perkins and Stafford Loans, Supplemental Education Opportunity Grant & Federal Work Study. Our web page at: www.sunyorange.edu/financialaid/standards.shtml contains a chart for your convenience on the calculation of Satisfactory Academic Progress and how your eligibility is affected by Program Pace, Cumulative Grade Point Average, and Maximum Program time frame. Academic progress is checked at the end of each academic year for degree programs and at the end of every semester for certificate programs. SUNY Orange�s academic year for Associate Degree programs is measured from May to May. If you fail to meet the minimum completion percentage (attempted vs. accumulated credit hours) or maintain the minimum grade point average you will forfeit all federal financial aid. If you have reached the maximum number of attempted credits without earning a degree, you will be excluded from further participation in federal financial aid programs (PELL grants, Direct Loans, and Federal Work Study). Federal regulations require that these standards apply to all students. Attempted hours are those hours for which you were still officially registered at the conclusion of each semester's Add/Drop period. Withdrawals are counted as attempted hours. Maximum hours to earn degree: To quantify academic progress, a school must set a maximum time frame in which a student is expected to complete a program. For an undergraduate program, the maximum time frame cannot exceed 150% of the published length of the program measured in credit hours attempted. The majority of SUNY Orange undergraduate programs require 66 hours for graduation. The maximum time frame for students in these programs is 99 attempted hours (66 x 1.5=99). � Withdrawals: All grades including W are counted as courses attempted and count toward the maximum time frame. � Audited Courses: You do not earn any academic credits for audited courses. However, these courses count in the calculation of your "attempted hours." � Pass/Fail Courses: These hours do count within the total of attempted and earned hours. � Transfer Credits accepted for your academic program, are counted as credits attempted and credits earned and are also used to calculate the maximum time frame to complete your program. � Developmental Credits are not counted in your academic program, but they are counted in your total of accepted and accumulated hours. � Double Majors and/or Minors: If you pursue a double major/minor you will normally be expected to complete all degree requirements before reaching 99 attempted hours. � Change in Majors: If you change your major you will normally be expected to complete all degree requirements before reaching 99 attempted hours. � 2nd Associate�s Degree: If you have already been awarded an Associate�s degree, you may apply for a second degree only if the second degree is different from the first degree. Ordinarily, a second degree at the undergraduate level is discouraged, and a Bachelor�s degree is encouraged. � You will be limited to how much you can borrow under the Federal Perkins and Direct Loan Programs. These limits are not increased for students working on additional degrees. � PELL grants are limited to the equivalent of 12 full�time semesters. If you are enrolled in a Certificate Program you are allowed a total of 45 credits attempted to complete the program. If you are enrolled in an Associate Degree Program you are allowed a total of 99 attempted credits to complete the program. Financial Aid � Financial Aid Probation If you have fallen below the completion ratio on the Satisfactory Academic Progress chart published on the SUNY Orange Financial Aid web pages, and/or you have failed to maintain the required minimum GPA associated with that completion ratio, you will be placed on federal financial aid probation. You will be allowed only one probationary semester during your academic plan if an appeal is granted. While on financial aid probation you will receive a separate letter that will outline the academic requirements you must meet in order to receive federal financial aid for the following semester. If you meet the terms of financial aid probation, you will be permitted to continue to participate in federal student aid programs (PELL grants, loans, and Federal Work Study) for subsequent semesters. If you have been placed on financial aid probation you shall be considered to be making satisfactory academic progress for the purposes of receiving federal financial aid as long as you continue to meet the academic requirements outlined in your probationary letter. While on probation, the Financial Aid Office will review your academic transcript at the end of the following semester to ensure you meet the conditions of your probation in relation to Progress and Grade Point Average. If you do not meet the terms of your probation, you will forfeit eligibility for all Federal Financial Aid programs (PELL grants, Loans, Federal Work Study). Grade Changes Students who are receiving aid on a probationary basis must resolve all incomplete grades before the Financial Aid Office can make a final determination of the satisfactory academic progress guidelines. Students must report any grade changes that impact their aid eligibility directly to the Financial Aid Office. Students must notify the Financial Aid Office once their final grades have been posted. Probation Standards Not Met If you have lost eligibility to participate in federal student aid programs for reasons of academic progress, you may regain eligibility by enrolling at SUNY Orange at your own expense, and making up the Deficiency of Progress or GPA. The mere passage of time will not ordinarily restore eligibility to a student who has failed to make satisfactory academic progress policy. If you have been academically dismissed from SUNY Orange but are subsequently given permission to re�enroll, you are not automatically eligible to continue to participate in Federal Financial Aid programs. Admissions decisions are totally separate from funding decisions. � Right to Appeal To appeal your Satisfactory Academic Progress status, you must submit a Satisfactory Academic Progress Appeal Form at: www.sunyorange.edu/financialaid/forms/docs/T4A_SAAP acket_nobarcode.pdf along with any required documentation, detailing the extenuating circumstances that contributed to your not meeting the SAP standards. Considerations for appeals exist if you had a severe illness, medical condition, injury, traumatic life altering experience, or the death of a parent that prevented you from being successful in the semester in which you did poorly. Submitting an appeal does not guarantee approval to reinstate your eligibility for receiving financial aid. The decision of the Appeals Committee is final. Deadlines: Appeals should be submitted by June 1st for Summer federal aid, July 1st for Fall federal aid, and December 1st for Spring federal aid to ensure that Financial Aid funds which you may be eligible for are on your account before the payment�due date. If an appeal is submitted after the deadline dates, you will need to make arrangements for alternative means of payment until your Financial Aid can be processed, using your own funds or participating in the Tuition Payment Plan. Appeals submitted after the current deadline date of August (see published day on our web page) for the Fall semester, and January (see published day on our web page) for the Spring semester will be evaluated for the following semester, and will NOT be accepted for the current semester. Appeal Approval Conditions: Appeals can only be approved if the Financial Aid Appeals Committee determines : � You will be able to meet SUNY Orange�s Satisfactory Academic Progress chart after the next payment period; or � You have agreed to follow an Academic Plan that, if followed, will ensure that the student can meet the college�s Satisfactory Academic Progress guidelines by a specific point in time. If an Appeal is granted: If your appeal is granted you will receive aid on a conditional basis for one semester (this is known as the probationary period). The conditions will be outlined in a letter sent to you granting the appeal. The Financial Aid Appeals Committee will review your record at the end of the semester to determine your status for the following semester. Students who fail to meet the conditions outlined in their individualized academic plans during their conditional semester will not be allowed to submit a subsequent appeal. Financial Aid � Federal Financial Aid Programs Federal PELL Grant The PELL Grant is a grant from the Federal government and does not have to be repaid. The amount of the grant is based on the amount of funds actually available for the program as designated by Congress. The maximum award is distributed over two semesters for full�time enrollment and may be pro�rated. All undergraduate students are eligible to apply for the Federal PELL Grant. Students may receive PELL Grants for as many as 12 full�time semesters (or the equivalent). The student must be enrolled at the time the Student Aid Report is received by the Financial Aid Office. Even though the student may file the FAFSA after the semester has started, a payment cannot be made if the student ceases to be enrolled. For students taking developmental courses, federal aid funds will only pay for the first 30 attempted credits of developmental study. Eligibility Exclusion Effective July 1, 2009, an individual subject to involuntary civil confinement or civil commitment upon completion of a period of incarceration for a forcible or non�forcible sexual crime is ineligible for a PELL Grant. Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant High�need students may be eligible to receive FSEOG grants ranging from $300 to $500 a year. Money for this program is extremely limited. Students who have earned a Bachelor's degree are not eligible. FAFSA completion is required. All Campus�Based�Aid programs are subject to the federal government�s allocation to the school. When all the funds are exhausted, awarding and disbursement of this aid program stops. Federal Work Study Program Eligible students may work part�time while in college to help defray their educational cost. Students are paid an hourly rate and receive a paycheck every two weeks for the hours worked. Students cannot earn more than the amount of their work�study award. Salary is based on published rates in the Federal Work Study manual. All students awarded work�study are placed in the job by the college's Placement Office. (The College Work�Study Manual provides further information.) FAFSA completion is required. Work�Study funds are allocated each year by the Federal government. The Financial Aid Office will award work�study to eligible students until the funds for the year are exhausted. Federal Perkins Loan Students who demonstrate exceptional need may be eligible to receive up to $27,500 as an undergraduate ($5,500 maximum per year). However, loans generally range from $500 to $5,500 a year, at 5% interest with approximately 10 years to repay. Borrowers have nine months after termination of their studies or dropping below less than half time studies to begin repayment. FAFSA completion is required. If you accept a Perkins Loan award, you are required to complete a Perkins Promissory Note in the Student Accounts Office every year. You may complete the Perkins Promissory note as early as five days after you accept your Perkins award. You must visit the Student Accounts Office to complete the paper Promissory Note and an Entrance Counseling; no earlier than July 1st. Please call 845�341�4911 to make an appointment. You will need to bring copies of your driver�s license and Social Security card for processing. Your failure to complete the Promissory Note will result in the cancellation of your Perkins Loan. All Campus�Based�Aid programs are subject to the federal government�s allocation to the school. When all the funds are exhausted, awarding and disbursement of this aid program stops. SUNY Orange participates in the William D. FordDirect Loan program Federal Stafford Loans The Federal Stafford Loan is a loan that must be repaid upon completion of school or interruption of studies. The student who qualifies may borrow up to $5,500 for the academic year as a freshman and $6,500 as a sophomore. Independent students who still need loan assistance after Federal Stafford Loan eligibility is determined will be packaged with a maximum of $4,000 additionally each year. Dependent students may apply for an additional unsubsidized loan if your parents are unable to obtain a PLUS loan. All borrowers are required to complete an electronic master Promissory Note, and entrance counseling before funds can be disbursed. If you are a freshman and a first�time borrower for a student loan, federal regulations require that the first loan disbursement be delayed until 30 days after the start of classes. Students are required to be actively enrolled for at least six credit hours each semester to maintain loan eligibility. If you should drop below 6 credits prior to the disbursement of the loan, the funds will be returned to the U.S. Department of Education. More information on loans can be viewed at www.direct.ed.gov/applying.html. Remember student loans are to be used only for �education expenses� which include tuition, fees, books, supplies and equipment, living expenses, cost of care for a dependent child, transportation, and the cost to rent or buy a computer. Federal PLUS Loans Federal PLUS loans are loans that a parent may use to assist their son or daughter in financing their education. The lender is theU.S.Government�sDirectLoanprogram. Moreinformation on how to obtain a PLUS loan can be obtained by going to: https://studentloans.gov/myDirectLoan/whatYouNeed.action?p age=plusApp website. Parents may borrow up to the cost of attendance, minus other aid per award year, if their son or Financial Aid daughter is enrolled at least part time. The loan goes into repayment 60 days after the check is disbursed to you. Students are required to be actively enrolled for six credit hours each semester to maintain eligibility.

NEW YORK STATE RESIDENTS FROM COUNTIES OTHER THAN ORANGE COUNTY A student from a New York county other than Orange is required to submit a Certificate of Residence from their county of legal residence covering 6 months prior to the first day of classes. To secure the required certificate, follow the procedures below: Contact the Treasurer's Office or Chief Fiscal Officer of your home county to inquire about acceptable forms of proof you will need to prove your residency. Once you have obtained a Certificate of Residence, you must submit the original to SUNY Orange Student Services Central. This will entitle you to pay the resident tuition rate. Please note per New York State Education Law, NY state counties are only required to issue and honor Certificates of Residence dated no earlier than 60 days prior to the start of classes and no later than 30 days after. After the first 30 days of classes, counties will no longer issue certificates of residence and payment for the non�resident tuition charge then becomes the student's responsibility. Late certificates will be accepted by our office, but your account will only be reduced if your county accepts our billing.

If you have reached the maximum number of attempted�credits�without�earning�a�degree,�you�will�be excluded�from�further�participation�in�federal�financial aid�programs�(PELL�grants,�Direct�Loans,�and�Federal Work Study).

Considerations for appeals exist if you had a severe illness, medical condition, injury, traumatic life altering experience, or the death of a parent that prevented you from being successful in the semester in which you did poorly. Submitting an appeal does not guarantee approval to reinstate your eligibility for receiving financial aid. The decision of the Appeals Committee is final. Deadlines:�Appeals�should�be�submitted�by�June�1st for Summer�federal�aid,�July�1st for�Fall�federal�aid,�and December 1st for Spring federal aid to ensure that Financial�Aid�funds�which�you�may�be�eligible�for�are�on your�account�before�the�payment�due�date.�If an�appeal is�submitted�after�the�deadline�dates,�you�will�need�to�make arrangements�for�alternative�means�of payment�until�your Financial�Aid�can�be�processed,�using�your�own�funds�or participating in the Tuition Payment Plan.

Course�Outline/Syllabus Course outlines and/or syllabi are distributed to students and appropriate department chairs at the beginning of each semester. Each syllabus must contain the elements identified by the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Elements that may be included in a course outline/syllabus are: heading; catalog description; relationship to programs; student learning outcomes; chronology of study; grading system; types of tests; instructional materials; attendance policy; instructor withdrawal�policy;�support�services;�office�location,�hours and phone; campus e�mail address; religious observance; and appropriate Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) information. Departments may have their own policies regarding additional information and end�of�the�semester reports. Repeating�a�Course Repeating�a�course�means�taking�a�course�after�having received a grade of A, A�, B+, B, B�, C+, C, C�, D+,�D,�D�,�F, ZF,�W�or�M�in�that�course.�When�a�student�repeats�a course,�the�grade�and�credits�earned�in�the�last�attempt are�calculated�in�the�academic�average,�unless�the�grade�is a��W��or��M.� All�grades�remain�on�the�student�s record.�Students�who�receive�financial�aid�should�check with�the�Financial�Aid�Office�before�repeating�a�course�in which�a�grade�of D�or�better�was�earned. Course�Policies�and�Procedures Audit�of�Course Students�who�wish�to�audit�a�course,�where�they�do�not earn�credit�or�a�grade�in�that�course,�must�complete�a special�permission�card,�available�at�Student�Services Central,�when�they�register.�Nursing�courses�are�not subject�to�audit. Students�may,�however,�change�their�status�from�audit to�credit�or�vice�versa,�if they�file�the�special�permission card�by�the�end�of the�third�week�of classes�(or�its equivalent�for�summer�sessions).�Instructors�are�not required�to�evaluate�the�work�of audit�students.�Those students�who�are�eligible�for�financial�aid�should�consult with the Financial Aid Office before registering or changing�to�audit�status.�If audited�courses�are�included in�12�credits�of course�work,�a�student�may�become ineligible�for�TAP�and�other�financial�aid�programs. Credit�Load Credit load refers to the total number of credits a student is taking in a semester. Twelve or more credits per semester is considered a full�time course load; while � to 11� credits per semester is considered part�time. Students generally may schedule their classes in the day or evening, or both, in accordance with their particular needs. However, if a student wants to take more than the maximum credit load, (19.5 or more credits in a semester, or 8.5 or more in a summer session) the appropriate associate vice president must approve. Schedule�Changes�and�Withdrawals Once�a�student�s�course�schedule�is�created,�the�student receives�a�computerized�printout�and�has�his�or�her�name added�to�the�rosters�for�each�course�and�section.�Student schedules�will�be�given�only�to�the�student,�who�must�also show�proper�photo�identification.�Should�a�student�need to�change�any�portion�of his�or�her�schedule,�or�to withdraw�from�the�College�during�the�semester,�the following�policies�have�been�established: Official�Withdrawal�from�the�College To�apply�for�an�Official�Withdrawal�from�the�College and�all�of the�current�semester�s�courses,�a�student�must meet�the�deadlines�published�in�the�appropriate�course schedule.�The�student�needs�to�discuss�a�withdrawal�with his�or�her�academic�advisor�and�begin�the�formal�process with�Student�Services�Central. Since the student�s financial aid and future academic record may be affected, the student must carefully follow the formal steps. The student must complete the Total Withdrawal from the College Form and the Drop/Add Form with appropriate signatures by the deadlines published in the current academic calendar. An exit interview with an Advising Office staff member is required for all degree�seeking students. Students who receive any form of financial aid are required to obtain a financial aid officer�s signature. Part�time, non�degree�seeking students should complete and file their forms with Records and Registration. Medical�Withdrawal A�student�may�withdraw�from�all�semester�courses�for medical�reasons.�For�the�medical�withdrawal�process, contact�the�Registrar�Office. When a student must withdraw from the College or courses due to personal medical reasons, he or she should obtain written verification from the physician and include it with all other required forms. The physician�s statement should list the dates of the condition and provide a general description of the student�s state of health and its effect on the student�s ability to attend classes. All such information maintained by the college is treated as confidential. The student's request for medical withdrawal and appropriate�forms�should�be�submitted�to�the�Registrar before�the�end�of the�semester�in�which�the�illness�occurs. If a�third�party�is�acting�on�behalf of the�student�at�any point�during�the�Medical�Withdrawal�process�they�are required�to�have�a�signed�letter�from�the�student�giving them�permission�and�show�picture�ID�at�time�of service. This�is�in�adherence�with�the�College�s�Red�Flag�Policy. Withdrawals approved for medical reasons do not generate�an�automatic�refund�of tuition,�waiver�of the physical�education�requirement,�nor�waiver�of financial aid�requirements.�Students�should�fill�out�and�submit�a Tuition�Credit�Application�as�well�as�consult�with�the appropriate�offices�concerning�these�items. Withdrawal�from�a�Non�Developmental�Course A�student�may�withdraw�from�a�non�developmental course by following the deadlines posted in the registration calendar (see current course schedule), completing�the�appropriate�forms�available�and�obtaining the�advisor�s�signature. Withdrawal�from�a�Developmental�Course To�withdraw�from�a�developmental�course,�but�not�any others that semester, a student must obtain the permission�of the�appropriate�instructor�and�the�Director of Academic�Support�and�Testing�(or�his/her�designee), the�advisor�and�the�instructor.�Absence�from�class�is�not a�sufficient�reason�when�seeking�permission�to�withdraw from�a�required�developmental�course. However,�if a�student�voluntarily�enrolled,�but�had�not placed�into�the�course,�he�or�she�may�withdraw�with�the signature�of the�advisor.�Students�who�are�required�to enroll�in�developmental�courses�must�remain�in�them until�they�successfully�complete�them�by�the�deadlines established in academic policy (see Developmental Education�Program�section�in�this�catalog). Impact�Upon�Financial�Aid�Awards Students�who�receive�financial�aid�should�check�with the�Financial�Aid�Office�since�current�or�future�aid�may be�affected�by�such�actions�as: � withdrawal�(medical�or�voluntary)�from�either�a single�course�or�from�all�courses. � repeating�a�course�in�which�a�grade�of D�or�better was�earned. Grades�and�Grading� � Grades�and�Grading Grades,�Quality�Points�and�Cumulative�GPA SUNY�Orange�uses�a�four�point�grading�system,�based on�letter�grades�of A,�B,�C,�D�and�F.�Each�grade�is assigned�a�numeric�value:� A= 4.00 A�= 3.67 B+ = 3.33 B= 3.00 B�=2.67 C+= 2.33 C=2.00 C�=1.67 D+= 1.33 D=1.00 D�= .67 F= 0 ZF =0 (failure�stopped�attending) To calculate quality points, multiply the number of credits of a course by the numeric value of the grade earned. For example: An A (4 quality points) in Freshman English 1 (3 credits) produces 12 quality points (4 x 3 = 12) and a C� (1.67 quality points) in Calculus 1 (4 credits) produces 6.68 quality points (1.67x 4 = 6.68). To determine academic average for a given semester, divide the quality points earned by the number of semester hour credits calculated (SemGPA). The same formula, dividing the total number of quality points by the total number of credits calculated, is used to calculate the cumulative quality point�average�(CumGPA). All credit courses taken at the College are calculated into the Cumulative GPA unless the student has been awarded a Fresh Start (see Fresh Start Policy). Transfer credits do not affect the cumulative SUNY Orange GPA. The College accepts�only�transfer�credits,�but�not�the�grades. However, when calculating academic average, the following special grades do not count as credits calculated: PP (Pass) indicates satisfactory performance in a physical�activity�course PF�(Fail)�is�received�for�unsatisfactory�performance�in a�physical�activity�course ZPF (Fail)�stopped�attending�a�Pass/Fail�course I (Incomplete)�work�unfinished�due�to�unavoidable circumstances W�(Withdrawal)�indicates�that�the�student�withdrew�by the�deadline�or�was�withdrawn�by�the�instructor M (Medical�Withdrawal)�withdrawal�from�a�course based�upon�documented�health�reasons N (Non�credit)�indicates�a�credit�course�was�taken�for no�credit� DVP (Developmental Pass) indicates satisfactory performance�in�a�developmental�course. DVF (Developmental Fail) is received for unsatisfactory performance in a developmental course. DVH (Hold)�indicates�a�degree�of progress�was�made�in a�developmental�course�but�not�sufficient�enough�to warrant�a�grade�of P�(Pass) ZDF (Developmental�Fail)�stopped�attending To clear a grade of I (Incomplete) from the record, work must be completed by the deadline indicated on the Incomplete Form, which can be no later than the end of the next semester, Fall or Spring. If the work is not completed, the I grade will become an F. It is the student�s responsibility to remain in contact with the instructor and submit work by the deadline. A grade of I will be calculated as an F for graduation purposes. Mid�Semester�Progress�Reports Communication between instructors and students regarding the student�s progress in college classes generally takes place before or after class or during office hours. In addition, students whose work is below the level of �C� may receive a Mid�Semester Progress Report. This �unsatisfactory� report does not go on a student�s college transcript, but should be considered official notification that the student should speak with the instructor about his or her CumGPA: 2.00���4.00 Good�Standing CumGPA: 1.50���1.99 AcademicProbation CumGPA: 0.0�1.49 Academic�Probation (less�than�30� credit�hours� completed+) CumGPA: 0.00���1.49 Probation (30�or�more if SemGPA*�is�2.0�or Credit�hours higher completed+) Separation if SemGPA*�is�0.00���1.99 CumGPA���Cumulative�grade�point�average +�Grades�of W,�I,�H,�M,�N�or�Pass/Fail�in�developmental and�physical�activity�courses�do�not�apply * SemGPA���Semester�grade�point�average progress. Students may also wish to speak with their academic advisor or a personal counselor. Degree�Audit/Catalog�Year Students in Health Professions majors must follow the catalog requirements of the year in which they were most recently accepted into the program. Non�Health Professions students who were admitted in Fall 2005 and after should follow the catalog year in which they were first admitted, and must have attended beyond the third week of classes (or the equivalent). Students may choose to follow later catalog versions. The Registrar�s Office will however base the student�s degree audit upon the initial semester in which the student was admitted and attended, unless otherwise notified in writing by the student. Non�Health Professions students who were in attendance prior to Fall 2005 but who have taken semesters off should follow the catalog year in which they were first readmitted and attended after the Summer 2005 semester. Students may choose to follow later catalog versions. The Registrar�s Office will, however, base the student�s degree audit upon the first semester of readmission and attendance after Fall 2005, unless otherwise notified in writing by the student. Final�Exam�Schedules�/�Graduation�/�Transfer�Credits� The only students eligible to follow a pre�Fall 2005 catalog year are non�Health Professions students who have been in continuous attendance since prior to Fall 2005. � Final�Examination�Schedules Final examinations are not required in all courses. During the Fall and Spring semester, for the mandatory 15th week, a special schedule is developed for all day classes. Final examinations will not necessarily be held on the same day or at the same time, during the Fall/Spring semesters, as the regularly scheduled course. The special schedule for final examinations of day classes is developed and distributed by the Registrar at the 10th week of the semester. Examinations for evening classes during the Fall and Spring semesters are usually held during the last week, on the same day of the week and at the same time as the regularly scheduled course. See the academic calendar for the dates of the final examination period. � Graduation Graduation�Application Graduation and participation in the commencement ceremony are not automatic. Students must initiate the process themselves. The Graduation Application Form must be filed with Student Services Central and the graduation fee paid upon submission. Before students can be cleared for graduation, they must return all college property loaned to them and pay any monies or outstanding obligations owed to any office of the College. Those intending to graduate in May must file for graduation during February and March prior to May graduation. Students who complete their graduation requirements at the end of the fall semester are invited to participate in the commencement ceremony the following May. See the academic calendar for filing deadlines. August Graduates who meet certain criteria are able to participate in the May Graduation Ceremony provided you: � Self Identify at time of applying in February or March � Are in good Academic Standing (2.00 CQPA or higher) � Need 6 or less credits to graduate in August Waiver�or�Substitution�of�Graduation Requirement Students who seek a waiver or substitution of a graduation�course�requirement�should�first�discuss�that request with the program department chairperson. Approval�from�the�course�department�chairperson�(if different from the program department chairperson) would also need to be obtained. Final approval is determined�by�the�appropriate�associate�vice�president. Waiver�of�Physical�Education�For�HealthReasons Students�seeking�a�waiver�of physical�education�as�a graduation�requirement�because�of a�physical�limitation must�follow�this�procedure:� � Obtain�a�Physical�Education�Waiver�Request�form from�the�office�of the�appropriate�associate�vice president. � Give�the�Physical�Education�Waiver�Request�form�to their�physician�(He�or�she�must�read�it�before�sending a�letter�requesting�a�physical�education�waiver). � Have�your�physician�write�a�letter�using�his�or�her letterhead�and�following�the�instructions�on�the Physical�Education�Waiver�Request�form. � Return� the�physician's�letter�to�the�office�of the appropriate�associate�vice�president. Note: Even though a physical education activity waiver is granted, students will still be required to take the one credit Concepts of Physical Wellness course, which is a lecture course and not an activity course if required for their program of study. This applies to all students, regardless of when they were admitted to the College. Students with long�term disabilities should make application for physical education waivers during their first semester at the College. Residence In�order�to�qualify�for�an�associate�degree,�at�least�30 credit�hours�must�be�earned�while�attending�SUNY Orange.�Beginning�with�the�Fall�2009�semester,�if the student is enrolled in a Newburgh branch campus program,�at�least�half of the�credits�earned�at�the�College must�have�been�taken�at�the�Newburgh�campus. � Transfer�Credits�and�the�Transfer�Application�Process Transfer�Credit�From�Other�Colleges In general, no more than 30 semester hours of credit are acceptable for students transferring to SUNY Orange from another college or university. Only courses in which the student has received a grade of at least �C� will be considered. Credit will be evaluated for course work completed more than 10 years ago on an individual basis. Only those credits which apply to the student's area of academic�interest�will�be�considered. Awarding of transfer credit is done in writing. Upon receipt of the written evaluation, the student may schedule an appointment with the Registrar if he/she has questions or wishes�to�appeal�the�evaluation. If the student is not satisfied with the Registrar's decision, they may appeal to the appropriate Department Chair within 10 business days after the Registrar's appeal decision is made. If the student wishes to appeal a Department Chair's decision, they may do so to the appropriate Associate Academic Vice President within 10 business days of being Transfer�Credits�/�Transfer�Application�Process informed of the chair's appeal decision. The decision of the appropriate�Academic�Associate�Vice�President�is�final. In addition to the above, SUNY has established policies to guarantee the transfer of credits for general education courses and courses taken in the first two years in the most frequently transferred majors. These policies guarantee that general education credits and credits in the primary courses in the most popular disciplines transfer throughout the system. If a student does not agree with a SUNY College's decision on the granting or placement of credit earned at a prior SUNY institution, they have the right to submit an appeal to SUNY Orange's transfer campus representative which is the Vice President of Academic Affairs or their designee. The student should be prepared to provide reasonable material to support their case, such as the course description or syllabus in question. The campus transfer representative will explain the process and let the student know exactly what materials�are�needed. Once all of the required information is received, the expectation is that the transfer appeal representative will provide the student with a written response within 15 business days. If the decision finds merit to change the course to meet a major requirement, the representative will notify the student, the chairperson and/or program coordinator, and�will�see�that�the�change�is�made�to�the�student's�record. If the decision is unchanged, or the student has not received a response within 15 business days, the student may take their appeal to the SUNY System Provost by submitting the Student Transfer Appeal Form along with requested materials. The SUNY Provost will respond to the student's appeal within five business days from receipt of the completed appeal application. If the decision finds merit to change the course to meet a major requirement, the receiving institution will�be�notified�to�take�appropriate�action. Remember, this additional appeal process is only available when a student challenges SUNY Orange's decision not to accept�credit�earned�at�another�SUNY�institution. Note: If you receive a waiver of your placement testing based on work completed at other schools, this does NOT guarantee�that�you�will�receive�transfer�credit. Courses and credits, but not grades, are accepted. A student�s CumGPA at SUNY Orange is calculated based upon course work at SUNY Orange only. Transfer credits from�other�institutions�do�not�affect�the�CumGPA. If a student has a passing grade in a course at SUNY Orange, an equivalent course will not be accepted from another institution. If a course is failed at SUNY Orange, an equivalent transferred course may be accepted, but the failing grade will still appear on the student�s transcript and will be calculated in the student�s CumGPA. No grades are ever�eliminated�from�a�student�transcript. Active duty military personnel may receive up to 45 credits and veterans up to 30 credits for courses and military occupational specialties if those courses or specialties are directly applicable to an area of academic interest at SUNY Orange. Students who have completed basic training in the U.S. armed forces may receive credit for both PES 100 and the one credit of physical activity requirement if required for their program of study. For more information, call the Veteran�s�Representative�at�(845)�341�4071. Credit�by�SUNY�Orange�Examination Students� life experiences may qualify them to take examinations and earn college credit in certain course offerings. To pursue this option, students are encouraged to check with appropriate department chairpersons. SUNY Orange may also award transfer credit for certain Excelsior College exams (formerly Regents College), certain AP (Advanced Placement) and CLEP (College Level Experience Program) exams, and certain non�college�sponsored training programs, as evaluated by the American Council on Education. Transcript�Requests Official Transcripts contain a record of all courses, grades and degrees received at SUNY Orange. Transcripts are sent to other parties such as colleges, prospective employers, or government agencies at the request of the student and payment of the required fee. NOTE: Transcripts will not be released if there is a hold on the student account. Online Transcript Ordering: SUNY Orange is pleased to offer students and alumni the convenience of requesting and paying for Official Transcripts via the National Student Clearinghouse by going to www.getmytranscript.com Upon written request and following payment of appropriate fees, students may have transcripts sent to other parties such as colleges, prospective employers or government agencies. Transcripts are mailed within a week of the request, in order of receipt, except for peak periods at the beginning and end of each semester. At those times, volume may require two or three weeks for processing. Transcripts�should�be�requested�well�in�advance�of the required�receipt�date.�Requests�must�be�signed�by�the student,�authorizing�release�of transcripts,�and�include the�transcript�fee�of $8�per�copy.�Please�be�advised�that institutions�and�agencies�requesting�transcripts�will�not consider�them�official�unless�mailed�directly�from�SUNY Orange�or�hand�delivered�in�a�sealed�envelope�marked �unofficial�if seal�is�broken.� Only�the�student�(with appropriate�photo�identification)�may�pick�up�his�or�her transcript,�unless�he�or�she�has�given�written�permission to�a�designee,�with�a�verified�signature.�The�designee should�also�provide�photo�identification.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) The application deadline is March 1 for Fall semester affords students certain rights with respect to their education transfer and Oct. 1 for Spring transfer. All other records. They are: applications, excluding the guaranteed program, can be sent after this deadline. SUNY application forms are available at the Academic Advising Office. If students plan to transfer, they should take advantage of SUNY Orange transfer days and visitations by four�year college transfer representatives. � Student�Records Certifications�of�Enrollment/Attendance�or Certifications�of�Full�Time/Part�Time�Status Enrollment Certification of Full�Time/Part Time status are available through the National Student Clearinghouse Self�Service Program. Students are securely and seamlessly brought to the Clearinghouse Self�Service site by signing into MySunyOrange. Advanced Registration Certificates, Current Enrollment Certificates and Past Enrollment Certificates will be available for students to print. To certify enrollment, tuition and fees must be paid and all stop/ holds must be cleared from the student's records. Student�Records/Confidentiality All student records are maintained and made available in accordance with the Federal Family Educational Rights and PrivacyAct(FERPA)of 1974.Withsomeexceptions,allstudent records are available for review upon request by that student, and the right to challenge the content is provided. The College may disclose directory information without the written consent of the student. Directory information includes name, semesters enrolled and the dates of those semesters, field of study, degrees, honors and awards conferred. Addresses are only released to governmental officials who wish to send congratulatory notices to our graduates and to third party institutions with whom the college has articulation agreements for our graduates such as Franklin University. Additional biographical information will also be released to military recruiters as allowed under the Solomon Act. Students can request that their personal directory information be suppressed by submitting formal written request to the Records and Registration Office. However, please be aware that once directoryinformationis suppressed enrollment verifications for insurance companies, student loans, and prospective employers will not be given this information without the student�s written permission which could have delays that may impact the student. No non�directory information records are released to third persons except as provided in the Act. Further information is available from the Records and Registration Office or in the SUNY Orange Student Handbook. � The�right�to�inspect�and�review�the�student�s�education records�within�45�days�of the�day�the�College�receives a�request�for�access. Students should submit to the Registrar or Vice President for Student Services written requests that identify the record(s) they wish to inspect. A College official will make arrangements for access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the records are not maintained by the College official to whom the request was submitted, that official shall advise the student of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed. � The�right�to�request�the�amendment�of the�student�s education records that the student believes are inaccurate�or�misleading. Students may ask the College to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate or misleading. They should write the College official responsible for the record, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the College decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, the College will notify the student of the decision and advise the student of his or her right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing. � The�right�to�consent�to�disclosures�of personally identifiable information contained in the student�s education�records,�except�to�the�extent�that�FERPA authorizes�disclosure�without�consent. One exception that permits disclosure without consent is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by the College in an administrative, supervisory, academic, research or support staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff); a person or company with whom the College has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor or collection agent); a person serving on the Board of Trustees; or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his or her professional responsibility. Upon request, the College will disclose education records without consent to officials of another school which a student seeks or intends to enroll (barring any indebtedness to this College). � The�right�to�file�a�complaint�with�the�U.S.�Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the College�to�comply�with�FERPA�requirements: Family Policy Compliance Office, U.S. Department of Education, 600 Independence Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20202�4605. Student�Rights�and�Responsibilities Directory�Information Directory information is personally�identifiable student information which the U.S. Department of Education has concluded is permissible for institutions to release without a student's consent. Orange County Community College has identified the following as Directory Information: � Name � Current enrollment status (full�time or part�time) � Semesters enrolled � Field of study or Program � Degrees, honors, and awards/scholarships conferred � Prior institution attended � Heights and weights of our college athletes � Addresses (but only of our graduates and only to governmental officials who wish to send congratulatory notices or to four�year educational institutions with whom the college has specific articulation agreements that will allow these students to continue to attend SUNY Orange while working toward a four year degree (e.g., Franklin University). Note: Oncean institution identifiesDirectoryInformation, the institution may releasethatinformation withoutstudent consent, but is not required to do so. The best example of this is addresses, where we may release that information but as an institutional practice we only do so in the specific examples given. Studentsmayoptoutof publicdisclosureof eventhedirectory information above by requesting what is known as a "FERPA Block."ThestudentdoessobycompletingtheFERPADirectory Information Block Request Form available on our website at www.sunyorange.edu/academic_services/ferpa.shtml A student interested in obtaining a FERPA Directory InformationBlockshouldbeawarethat unlikeother institutions, we do not include address and phone number as directory information and that a substantial consequence of requesting a FERPA Block is, unless another exception under FERPA permits disclosure, an active FERPA Block will prevent SUNY Orange from disclosing that the student once attended and received a degree or is currently enrolled at the college pursuing a particular degree. StudentswhoafterhavingtheFERPADirectoryBlockplaced on their record wish to remove the block must complete the FERPA Directory Information Block Removal Form also available at the same website. Consent�Forms�for�Release�of�Non�DirectoryInformation A student�s signed written consent must specify the records to release/inspect, state the purpose of the disclosure and identify the person(s) to whom the disclosure should be made. A new consent form would be required each academic year or when access to additional educational records not covered in the previous consent form on file are being requested. If the consent form does not specify the actual educational records to be inspected or simply states something equivalent to �all educational records�, the only records that will be disclosed are those that appear on the most current academic transcript. According to FERPA regulations, an institution has up to 45 days after receipt of a valid consent form to arrange for the inspection/disclosure of the specified educational records. Personal inspections of the requested educational records in the majority of cases will be made with the Registrar, who also acts as the FERPA officer for the institution, and not necessarily with individual faculty members. In the case of a so�ordered subpoena, issued by a judge, consent from the student is not required for disclosure of non�directory information. However, unless the subpoena specifically states that contact with the student is forbidden, the institution will not respond to said subpoena for 72 business hours and in that timeframe will attempt to contact the student to inform them that a subpoena was received, who issued the subpoena, and what records will be disclosed. Parents��Rights Message to Parents: SUNY Orange is guided by the principle that students� active involvement in their education enhances their learning and development. In keeping with this principle, SUNY Orange considers its primary relationship to be with its students. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act has provided two ways in which parents/guardians of dependent students may inspect the educational records of the student. The first is to obtain a signed written consent from the student and submit consent to the Registrar. If the student is unwilling to provide a signed written consent, the final alternative is for the parents/guardians to provide the Registrar with a copy of the preceding year�s tax returns to demonstrate the student is a tax dependent. The copy provided must have either been completed by a third party (accountant, tax preparer, etc.) or be an official full complete copy (not the shortened version) from the Internal Revenue Service. Information on how to obtain this version can be found by contacting the IRS Office at (800) 829�1040. When the documentation is submitted, the parents/guardians must also specify the records to be inspected. If the request simply states something equivalent to �all educational records,� the only educational records that will be disclosed are those that appear on the most current academic transcript. � Student�Rights�and�Responsibilities Conduct�Expected�of�Students See the Code of Student Conduct published in the Student Handbook. The College reserves the right to dismiss any student who conducts himself or herself in a manner incompatible with the purposes of the College.

Academic�Grievance�Procedure � Academic�Grievance�Procedure Purpose of the Procedures: The purpose of the Student Academic Grievance Procedure is to encourage the informal resolution of academic issues that might surface between students and faculty in a manner that is timely and upholds standards of academic integrity. In the event that students and faculty are unable to resolve an academic issue, the formal stage provides additional fair and equitable procedures for students. Students should understand that each stage of the process is an important one; therefore, it is not possible to move through the process unless previous stages have been followed. The procedure must be utilized by all students regardless of the location at which the grievance has arisen or the mode of delivery for the course. Procedures: A�student�having�a�concern�of an�academic�nature�with a�faculty�member�arising�from�participation�in�a�credit class�should�follow�the�procedure�outlined�below.�Such concerns�could�include�the�belief that�his/her�grade(s)�is not�consistent�with�the�grade�criteria�designated�by�the course�instructor/syllabus.

Faculty must document the date of meeting with the student. b. If the student and the instructor cannot resolve the matter in this discussion, the student will have five business days after meeting with the instructor to contact the appropriate department chair to discuss the matter informally with him/her. The chair must consult with the instructor and may include the instructor in the mediation. The student and the instructor should provide copies of all relevant material. The chair will make a decision within five business days and communicate the rationale for the decision to the instructor and the student. c. The student will have five business days from the date of the Chair�s decision to contact the appropriate Associate Vice President to discuss the matter informally with him/her.

NOTE: The authority to assign grades rests with the faculty member who is instructor of record; however, under extraordinary circumstances, if the academic grievance requires the issuance of a grade change, at the objection of the instructor, only the Associate Vice President, Vice President for Academic Affairs, or the President may authorize such in the formal or appeal stages. Students are required to utilize the informal stage to attempt to resolve all academic grievances, including those pertaining to grades. Record�Keeping A permanent file containing appropriate documentation relating to the grievance shall be kept in the office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs for six years. Non�Academic�Grievance�/�Non�Discrimination�and�Sexual�Violence�Prevention� � Non�Academic Grievance When a student believes that his or her rights or freedoms in a non�academic area have been violated, that student may attempt to redress that violation as follows: � Approach the staff or administrative person in question � Approach the appropriate supervisor if the grievance is not resolved within a reasonable amount of time � Approach the appropriate vice president or request that the Student Grievance Committee be convened if the grievance is not resolved within a reasonable amount of time After going through the proper procedures, the student has the right to be heard by the Student Grievance Committee. The student must go to the Office of Student Services to have the committee convened. At this point in the process, the grievance must be put in writing if this has not been done already. The ad hoc committee shall consist of: � Two students appointed by the Student Senate � One full�time faculty or staff member from the same discipline in which the grievance occurred � One full�time faculty or staff member from a different discipline � One representative from the appropriate administrative office The Student Grievance Committee shall have the responsibility of recommending a decision about the grievance. To this end, written or oral statements may be initiated or solicited from the principals in the grievance, and/or from other observers who can provide pertinent information. In addition, each principal in the grievance may have an advocate at the hearing. When all information pertinent to the case has been presented to the committee, the committee will convene without the principals in attendance to discuss the case. The Student Grievance Committee will have 10 working days to complete its deliberation. The recommendations of the committee are to be presented in writing to the appropriate vice president within three working days after the completion of the deliberations. A decision and supportive rationale shall be communicated in writing by the vice president to the principals, and to the chairperson of the Student Grievance Committee. Final�Appeal The�decision�of the�Vice�President�for�Student�Services may�be�appealed�for�final�disposition�to�the�President�of the�College.�The�decision�of the�President�is�final. Time�Frame Any grievance a student has can be initiated at any time, but no later than 30 days after the start of the semester following the semester in which the problem arose. If a grievance arises in the Spring semester or during the Summer session, this means that the student must file the formal grievance, if any, no later than 30 days into the following Fall semester. Confidentiality Once a person files a grievance, either formally or informally, all matters pertaining to the grievance shall be kept confidential. All documents, communications and records dealing with the processing of the grievance shall be filed with the Office of the Vice President for Student Services. Student grievance records, including but not limited to grievance, investigative records, hearing proceedings, decision rendered, student appeal, records of arbitration procedure, final decision and correspondence, will be retained for six years after the grievance is resolved, as dictated by the State Archives and Records Administration. At that time records will be destroyed. � Non�Discrimination�and�Sexual�Violence�Prevention SUNY Orange is committed to ensuring equal employment, educational opportunity and equal access to services, programs and activities without regard to an individual�s race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age, disability, gender, pregnancy, gender identity, sexual orientation, predisposing genetic characteristics, marital status, veteran status, military status, domestic violence victim status or ex�offender status.

Academic�Advising Academic advising at SUNY Orange is designed to facilitate student learning, development and success by collaborating with students to develop and implement meaningful and attainable educational plans. The College recognizes that academic advising is vital to the educational process and student success, and offers a thorough advising program that is coordinated by the Academic�Advising Office�in�conjunction�with�the�academic�departments. Academic advising is an intentional educational process that guides students in the development, implementation and achievement of educational, career and life plans. Effective advising includes: assisting students to develop meaningful and attainable goals, make informed decisions and effectively use college resources; providing accurate and timely information about SUNY Orange programs, classes, resources, services, policies and procedures, as well as transfer and career opportunities; developing an understanding of the college experience and curriculum; facilitating students� self�sufficiency; and fostering students� intellectual and personal development toward academic success and lifelong learning. Based on a student�s area of study, an academic advisor is assigned to assist students in developing and meeting their academic goals. Advisors work collaboratively with students in an intentional educational process to assist in the development, implementation and achievement of educational,�career�and�life�plans. � Declared Students: Students are assigned an advisor,�often�a�faculty�member�within�their�major department,�who�will�help�guide�them�through�the requirements�and�opportunities�within�their�chosen field�of study. �� Developmental�Students:�Individualized�attention�is provided�to�students�who,�based�on�the�placement test,�are�taking�courses�to�prepare�them�for�their major�course�of study. Transfer�Advising The Academic�Advising Office assists students with the transfer process by helping them select a transfer institution; understand the transfer process and the SUNY transfer appropriate courses for their institution of choice. The Office also provides transfer workshops and arranges visitations by 4�year college representatives from a variety of institutions throughout the year. During College Transfer Days in the fall semester, approximately 80 public and private college and university representatives visit campus to meet and discuss their programs with students. As members of the New York State Transfer and Articulation Association, the staff has developed contacts with many of the four�year colleges and universities where a majority of SUNY Orange students transfer to complete their undergraduate and post�graduate degrees. These relationships are instrumental in helping guide students, and careful planning can streamline the transfer process to their college of choice. All New York residents who transfer directly from a SUNY or CUNY two�year college with an A.A. or A.S. degree are guaranteed admission to a four�year SUNY College for full�time study. The transfer guarantee becomes effective if a student is denied admission at all four�year college choices.

While other opportunities exist, the largest job opportunities are positions as interns / CAD operators for architectural firms. Graduates� skills will prepare them to produce working drawings in a variety of settings, such as engineering firms or manufacturers. If graduates have field experience in a building trade, all program outcomes are directly transferable to entry�level positions in construction management and supervision. A broad cross�section of course content is covered in the program; this familiarizes students with many aspects of the architectural profession, the work of building professionals and the construction process. When working under the supervision of a licensed professional (i.e. Registered Architect, Professional Engineer, etc.), a graduate�s primary responsibilities would include measuring and documenting existing conditions of buildings and sites, preparing construction documents, interpreting construction documents, preparing design presentations for clients or other audiences, and coordinating architectural drawings with consultants� drawings. Fluency with computer�aided drawing (AutoCAD) and computer literacy, as it applies to generating architectural drawings, are fundamental skills graduates will possess. Meanwhile, freehand sketching is stressed wherever possible as a valuable communication method. Beyond preparing construction drawings, students will build models, prepare reports and orally present their work to groups. Most courses in the program are a combination of lecture and lab. In the lecture component, foundational material is presented, often accompanied by samples, examples or other visual cues. In the lab component, students will either work on short�term exercises designed to hone very specific knowledge bases or skills or they will work on long�term projects designed to simulate the types of projects that they will eventually encounter in the workforce. Students should be prepared to spend a significant amount of time on projects outside the classroom. Many students who enter this degree program plan to transfer to an upper division institution. Because these opportunities exist, second year students who intend to transfer should select their courses in careful consultation with their academic advisor. Portfolio production will be required. For those students wishing to become Registered Architects, New York State Department of Education guidelines must be followed. To become a Registered Architect, one must earn an NAAB�accredited Bachelor of Architecture or Master of Architecture degree, fulfill NCARB internship requirements (a proscribed three year apprenticeship), and pass a challenging and comprehensive licensing examination.

Program�Description The mission of the SUNY Orange Department of Criminal Justice is to provide qualitative educational programs in the areas of Law, Justice, Corrections and Law Enforcement. Through this programming, our students develop skills and knowledge that prepares them to continue their education and/or to pursue entry level careers in the field of criminal justice. The Associate in Science (A.S.) degree in Criminal Justice prepares students to continue their education in four�year degree programs in criminal justice or related liberal arts areas of study. These may include forensic psychology, public administration, sociology, cyber security, criminology and pre�law. The A.S. degree in Criminal Justice is designed to facilitate the acquisition of the technological and critical thinking skills that are essential for success in the criminal justice field. Graduates of this program will have both a general educational background as well as the criminal justice insight needed to pursue careers within the justice system. This degree program is reviewed regularly to ensure that the course content reflects contemporary issues facing the criminal justice system (e.g. homeland security, terrorism, cyber security, technological advancements, diversity and ethics) and explores criminal justice topics such as the nature and extent of crime, public policy implications related to justice, racial and ethnic profiling, crime scene processing, law enforcement technology and terrorism. Moreover, there are courses devoted to the treatment of adult and juvenile offenders as well as an internship program where students are afforded the opportunity to utilize their newly acquired skills and knowledge in an actual criminal justice environment. The A.S. in Criminal Justice provides students with a solid foundation from which to continue their education�as�well�as�pursue�a�rewarding�career. Admission�Criteria Admission to these programs requires that students be high school graduates or have high school equivalency diplomas (HSEs). If students are not high school graduates they may be eligible for admission to the college�s 24 credit hour program. If students are home schooled, they may be eligible for admission.

Developed by Orange County Community College and SUNY New Paltz, this jointly registered liberal arts/teacher education program has been approved by the New York State Education Department. Students in this program are, at the same time, given priority status for admission consideration into The College at New Paltz. Upon successful completion of the A.A. or A.S. degree at SUNY Orange, with a minimum 2.75 grade point average, students who are accepted will transfer to SUNY New Paltz with full junior standing in order to complete�the�bachelor�s�degree. The primary focus of the JRTEP concentration is to develop and integrate critical thinking, problem solving, and creative skills with information and theories about education. Coupled with a broad general liberal arts foundation, JRTEP students will experience between 10 and 80 hours of observation in local schools and centers. This field work provides excellent practical application opportunities. Students planning to transfer to other institutions or SUNY four�year schools may also benefit from these courses. They should see their advisor and check transfer�credits�with�transfer�school�if�other�than�SUNY New�Paltz. Admissions�Criteria Admission to this program requires that students be high school graduates or have high school equivalency diplomas (HSEs). If students are not high school graduates, they may be eligible for admission to the College�s 24 Credit Hour Program. If students are home schooled, they may be eligible for admission. (See pages�7�through�13�for�more�details�on�the�admission�process�for�all�applicants.) Before beginning their coursework, JRTEP students must choose an age level: birth�to�sixth�grade�(B�6),�or�seventh�to�twelfth�grade�(7�12). Then,�students�must�choose�an�educational�concentration: � Biology�(available�in�B�6�or�7�12) OR � English�(available�in�B�6�or�7�12) OR � History�(available�in�B�6) OR � Mathematics�(available�in�B�6�or�7�12) OR � Social�Studies�(available�in�7�12) OR � Spanish�(available�in�B�6�or�7�12) Note: Because teacher education programs and the New York State Education Department certification regulations are precisely defined, it is essential that JRTEP students work closely with both their SUNY Orange advisor and their New Paltz advisor, who is on the SUNY Orange campus by appointment. Career Opportunities � public�school�classroom teacher�(pre�K�through grade�12 � positions�in�related educational�fields,�such�as special�education�teacher, and�guidance�counselor Transfer Opportunities JRTEP is specifically designed�to�transfer�seamlessly to�SUNY�New�Paltz.�Other SUNY and non�SUNY schools with teaching preparatory programs may accept�all�or�a�large�percentage of credits�(see�transfer�criteria below�left).

Students select one of three emphasis areas: Music Performance, Jazz and Commercial Music or Music Business. For those seeking such a transfer, an articulation with SUNY Purchase has been established giving students the opportunity for seamless transition to a four�year program. Students interested in the transfer program should schedule a conference with the department chair. The program includes core courses in music history, theory and related musicianship skills, piano, instrumental or vocal performance, acoustics, and music business. Performing ensembles enable students to learn in active, collaborative settings and offer ongoing service and enrichment to the College and community through a variety of musical performances. Courses in arranging and improvisation are required for students choosing the Jazz and Commercial option. Students selecting the Music Performance or Jazz and Commercial options must complete four credits of private music instruction with a department�approved teacher and are responsible for the private instructor�s fee. Courses not required to complete the degree but also available include songwriting, jazz keyboard harmony, jazz/commercial guitar, jazz/commercial drumming, and audio engineering and design for the arts. An ongoing visiting artist series enables students to learn directly from some of the best contemporary performing artists in workshops featuring musicians such as Cindy Blackman (drummer for Lenny Kravitz), Randy Brecker, Bob Mintzer and Kenny Barron. Many of the courses required in the program fulfill New York State general education requirements and thus are easily transferable within the SUNY system. Admission�Criteria Admission�to�this�program�requires�that�students�be�high�school�graduates�or have�a�high�school�equivalency�(HSE)�diploma.�If students�are�not�high�school graduates,�they�may�be�eligible�for�admission�to�the�College�s�24�Credit�Hour Program.�If students�are�home�schooled,�they�may�be�eligible�for�admission.�(See pages�7�through�13�for�more�details�on�the�admission�process�for�all�applicants.)

The stereotyped view of the Vikings as bloodthirsty, rapacious barbarians will be checked against actual records and opened�to�critique�and�discussion. Man, Tree, Saw: Environmental Ethics�This seminar, examines the true�life mystery of a man who saws down a sacred tree and consider the roles of culture, economics, science, religion, mythology, and aesthetics in approaching environmental ethics for today. We ask what the relationship should be between humans and nature. Are natural resources just that, a commodity primarily for human consumption? Should we see the environment as a living system or organism worthy of care? Is nature to be revered? What value does nature have for humans, or in and of itself? Answers to questions such as these may contribute to the development of ethics towards the environment relevant to our current times and�the�future. Problem of Evil�This seminar investigates different answers to the questions people have been asking about evil for thousands of years: What is evil? What is its origin? How can evil exist in a world created by an all�powerful and benevolent god? How has our understanding of evil changed over the millennia as our understanding of what it means to be human has changed to include our knowledge of genetics, biochemistry, psychology, sociology? We will approach these questions through the examination of significant works in the history of philosophy and religion and elsewhere from the ancient world to the present day, with special attention to questions about the relationship between evil and good and the vast gray area in between these two concepts that makes simple definitions of such powerful terms�impossible. Visions of the Hudson Valley�This seminar begins with a focus on the geology, biology, ecology and history of the Hudson Valley. The historical section looks at political and economic developments. The seminar then moves to representations of the valley in the literature, painting, and cinema,�plus�architecture,�music,�drama�and�the�arts. The Culture Wars in America�Ever wonder why modern conservatives and liberals in the U.S. fight like cats and dogs? Is it the inevitable fallout of a two�party system which lends itself to polarization and conflict? And yet, Since the 1960s, Republicans and Democrats can't seem to get along on anything. This seminar explores the history behind the culture wars, the main figures in the media and politics responsible for this divisiveness, and solutions to find more common ground between the left and right as American politics�moves�deeper�into�the�new�century. Anthropology of Disease�Human beings are simultaneously biological, social and cultural creatures. Infectious disease represents a particularly salient factor in the biological experience of human beings and has been a focus of intensive study in the medical sciences. For a fully comprehensive examination understanding of the role of disease in human life, however, a more holistic perspective is needed. Without losing sight of present biological aspects of infectious disease, this seminar shifts focus toward the evolutionary, social and cultural dynamics experienced by humans in the context of disease, through the lens of anthropology, the discipline most concerned with holistic and�contextual�understandings�of�the�species. The Holocaust�This seminar explores the ideological development and actual implementation of the Holocaust. It will examine the rise of the National Socialist (Nazi) party in Germany and the government�s execution of racial laws, eventually leading to the killing of approximately six million Jewsandfivemillion�enemies� of theReich,inclusiveof the mentally and physically disabled, partisans, homosexuals, religious objectors, gypsies, Socialists and Communists.

Lost Gen: Beautiful Fools & All that Jazz�This seminar examines the expatriates in Paris in the 1920s. Due to distaste in a post�WWI America, many American writers, artists, and musicians alienated themselves and found their way to Europe, living lives of decadence and experimenting with various art forms: writing, visual arts, music. These artists came to be called �The Lost Generation�by Gertrude Stein when she said to Ernest Hemingway, �All of you young people who served in the war. You are a lost generation.� Writers, namely Hemingway and Fitzgerald, worked in concert with artists and musicians to create a world that has not been replicated since. All pieces of art, literary, visual, and musical, will be looked at in their historical and social contexts. Guns in America: 2nd Amendment�This semester explores the role of guns in American society and the seemingly never�ending debate surrounding the right to bear arms.

Unlocking Personal Potential�A long healthy life is a universal desire. So how does one achieve it? Students will examine the eight components of wellness through historical, medical, sociological, and psychological perspectives to determine effective methods to nurture one�s own optimal potential. By probing personal beliefs and commonly accepted health & fitness practices, student attempt to answer three basic questions: 1. How can I make a difference? 2. Does it really matter? 3. What changes are necessary�to�avoid�these�challenges�in�the�future? Entertain Us!�When humans aren�t in school or working, what activities bring them joy, pleasure, and fulfillment? How do these activities relate to historical time and cultural norms? How do larger social forces impact what we �choose� as entertainment? This seminar explores the world of entertainment from an interdisciplinary perspective. Major topics include: digital communication, music, books, television & film, sports, games (board and video), and travel. Additional topics will be added based on the unique interests�of�the�class.

Special attention will be paid to the emergence of racial typologies in the Enlightenment; pre�and post�Darwinian theories of differentiation; American and European eugenics movements; efforts to quantify and racialize intelligence; the intersection of scientific racism and education; and contemporary issues of race�based science, healthcare, and government�policies. Ethics and Criminal Justice�This seminar explores ethical issues in the criminal justice system as faced by law enforcement�practitioners�and�society�at�large. Everything Falls Apart�Why do human civilizations seem to inevitably fall apart? Is our own society headed for a similar collapse? Why do we find stories of social destruction so fascinating? In this seminar, we begin by examining a number of archaeological and historic case studies to determine how and why complex societies break down and what happens to the people left in their wake. Using this background, we then explore the potential scenarios of collapse for our own society through an analysis of the popular media structured on narratives of the end of the world. Nietzsche & Nihilism�This seminar investigates the writings of the late 19th century philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. His theories of the superman, eternal return and will to power, while seemingly strange, have profoundly impacted global thought and policy �for better and for worse. We will read selections from Nietzsche�s writings, as well as secondary sources, to investigate the meaning and significance�of�this�enigmatic�thinker. Fibonacci Sequence: From Rabbits to Pinecones�This seminar explores the fascinating, beautiful, and often unexpected ways that this particular pattern of numbers occurs in the world around us. Originally described using the breeding habits of rabbits, this sequence tur up in many man�made and naturally occurring situations. Representative examples will be explored from mathematics, biology, music, and�more.�Come�and�be�surprised! American Gangsters�This seminar explores the impact of lawlessness in American history. Beginning in the American West in the post�Civil War Era (post�bellum era) with the lives of men like Billy the Kid and the Dalton Gang, as they struggled to readjust to life without war and spiraled into bank robbing, it continues into the early 20th century, examining the rise of organized crime in the era of World War I and Prohibition. Men like George "Bugs" Moran, Alfonse "Al" Capone and Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel transformed cities like New York, Chicago and Las Vegas. The seminar explores the sociological, physiological and historical aspects of how these individuals transformed into criminal lifestyles and their overall impact on American history. Peace and War�This seminar explores the social science surrounding questions of why humans kill each other, but also how they forge peace the aftermath of violence. Questions explored include: are humans naturally violent? Are humans naturally cooperative and peaceful? Are warriors born or made? How old is war? How old is peace? How do people give meaning to lives in the context of war? How do people make peace? and others generated by the class. Deviance Unleashed: Am I Normal?�Are you a deviant person? Are you a follower of social norms or are you the person who stands out in a crowd? Is it possible for anyone to claim "normalcy?" This seminar explores deviant behavior and normalcy from an interdisciplinary perspective. Major topics include: cyber deviance, death/dying, corporate/political crimes, sexual deviance, mental disorders, and positive deviance. Specific/additional topics will be determined based on the unique interests of the class. Graphic Novels�This seminar is a study of the graphic novel as a form of literature and arts, focusing on its history, major contributors to the form, and the various techniques used�to�create�them.�The�seminar�illustrates�how�the�graphic novel combines a variety of disciplines including literature, art, history, psychology, sociology, political theory, ethics and philosophy. Truth, Justice & What Sources Say�This seminar is designed to stimulate critical thinking and group discussion of received information on any variety of subjects via abundant media channels. Students examine the generalized subject of "the media," what it is, what comprises it and how it influences the lives and convictions of not just average citizens, but those who have been elected to represent them. Emphasis is placed on ethics in media, especially as it concerns slant, bias, conflicts of interest, objectivity and choice or limitation of sources or censorship and on practical application in deciphering such to formulate justifiable and workable�conclusions. The Wonders of Water�Climate change, gas wells, nitrogen pollution, aging water�treatment systems are all issues impacting the water that we need to survive. Is there a global water crisis? In this seminar we explore key impacts on the quality and quantity of water that sustains us, and investigate�what�is�being�done�to�address�these�issues. "And, but, so": Post�Modern America�The term "postmodernism" is a time reference (after modernism) and catch�all referring to the architectural, artistic, literary, and philosophical changes in specifically American culture since the end of WWII. Hallmarks include lack of a singular, Honors�/�Human�Services universal Truth and a resistance to binary structures, such as male/female, rich/poor, straight/gay, black/white, acknowledging possible overlaps and outliers. In the 21St century, acknowledging that the reality of "grey" areas is vital. This seminar looks at the artistic moves to multi�genre representation, introduces postmodernism through the arts, and applies those ideas to a greater, more general societal landdscape.
