Meditation is now main-stream and is being practiced in many different places in countless different ways. The meditation that will be taught in this course has its roots in Zen practice.

Hatha Yoga with a splash of Tai Chi

NEW for Fall 2018! Weakness, pain, and low stamina reduce the capabilities of your body, stopping you from reaching your full potential. Exercise opens you up and creates a means to garner mental clarity and calmness. Hatha Yoga is one such exercise. ‘Ha’ means ‘Sun’, and ‘tha’ means ‘Moon’. Hatha Yoga means to bring balance to the sun and moon in you. It is designed to calm your body, mind, and spirit and prepare you for meditation. This is a one-hour yoga class followed by one-half hour of Tai Chi practice. Pilates, specific core-strengthening exercises, as well as some light weight lifting have been incorporated into the class, greatly enhancing the exercises.

Have a Pleasant Present

“This class is about assisting people in understanding that our own personal belief system and self-talk set us up to perceive the world either negatively or positively,” said instructor Violet Young. “We are influenced and become preconditioned by and through our upbringing and life experiences. As this happens so slowly during our lives, and we become resigned to the ‘usual outcome’, we are not conscious of the patterns being formed. After resigning ourselves to the ‘it’s just the way it is’ way of life, there is often the onset of depression and anxiety. By learning to recognize our own patterns and triggers as well as recognizing that we can give ourselves options to view situations from different perspectives, we can then be open to make choices that painlessly create new growth and joy. During the class there will be time for personal exploration and sharing.” INSTRUCTOR: VIOLET YOUNG WEDNESDAYS, 5:30 – 7:30 PM SEPT. 26 – NOV. 1 • $45 CENTRAL CAMPUS, NEWPORT

“This class addresses, in a low-key, understandable and accepting manner, the concept that Love Never Dies and that connecting with deceased loved ones is possible,” said instructor Violet Young. “The class is suitable for anyone who is open to the possibility of life after death or anyone who may may have experienced unexplained events after the death of a loved one but is unsure if they have received actual messages. In my experience, many people have experienced messages and visitations but are often selfconscious or afraid to actually believe it. People who are dealing with grief and loss often suffer loneliness, anxiety and depression. Love Lives Forever helps people to feel less isolated and confused, leading to more self-acceptance and self-love to assist with the grieving/healing journey. I present my own experiences since my husband crossed over on April 6, 2015, as well as personal experiences with other family members. The class is a forum for people to share their own experiences and thoughts about the possibility that they have received messages from their loved ones and to explore their feelings about the experiences. Love Lives Forever is spiritually based however not religious. Students who have taken this class report feeling comforted, and validated in their experiences.” INSTRUCTOR: VIOLET YOUNG WEDNESDAYS, 5:30 – 7:30 PM NOV. 7 – DEC. 12 • $45 SOUTH COUNTY CTR., WALDPORT

In this course, participants will meet at Oregon Coast Community College’s Aquarium Science Building to learn about how seemingly small changes in the acid content of ocean waters can create large challenges for marine organisms. The course includes a tour of the Aquarium Science Facility where members of the class will see how the staff control acidity in a coral reef aquarium. No knowledge of chemistry is required but we hope you will leave with a better understanding of the chemical challenges that ocean acidification presents for our global marine environment.

College achieves major milestone towards independent accreditation

Oregon Coast Community College has been granted Candidacy status, the final stage prior to independent regional accreditation. The announcement was made Thursday, July 26, by Sonny Ramaswamy, President of the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU). Regional accreditation provides students with access to federal financial aid, and also ensures that credits earned are transferable. Currently, OCCC programs and services are accredited through an agreement with Portland Community College.

A LONG JOURNEY

Oregon Coast Community College was founded in 1987. For the first twenty-plus years of its history the college provided classes and services out of a variety of rented spaces. In 2004 the voters of Lincoln County passed a $23.5 million bond to develop a permanent college campus in Newport and college centers in Lincoln City and Waldport. The faculty, staff, and students of OCCC deeply appreciate the tremendous support shown by the voters of Lincoln County, then and now. In July 2014, Dr. Ryslinge was named the president of Oregon Coast Community College and was charged by the OCCC Board of Education with leading the college to independent accreditation. Since its founding, OCCC’s academic programs have been accredited through other Oregon community colleges. Since 2014, OCCC

has been accredited through Portland Community College. Every graduate who crossed the stage during this June’s commencement ceremony earned a PCC diploma. “We’re thankful to PCC for their tremendous support of Oregon Coast,” Ryslinge said. “But, we know that the best way OCCC can serve the residents of Lincoln County is to secure its own independence. When our students cross the stage and collect the diplomas they’ve earned, we want those diplomas to say ‘Oregon Coast Community College.’ The ‘Oregon Coast Diploma’ is one of our foundational strategic objectives and it means far more than a name printed on a document. It represents local responsiveness and services we can tailor to meet the challenges, the needs, and the opportunities Lincoln County presents now, and will present in the future.”

THE PATH TOWARDS INDEPENDENCE

The NWCCU team visiting Oregon Coast Community College in the Spring.

Oregon Coast Community College informed the NWCCU of its intent to pursue independent accreditation via a report filed in July 2014. The College was granted “Applicant” status in 2016. With this summer’s announcement it has achieved “Candidate” status, the only remaining step is to be granted fully independent Accredited status. However, recognition as Candidate neither implies nor ensures an institution will attain Accredited status with the NWCCU. Though every case is different, the process of a college like OCCC pursuing independent accreditation historically has taken 7-10 years. Now that OCCC has been awarded Candidacy, NWCCU allows up to five years to reach Accreditation. “We have come a long way,” Ryslinge said, “and we know that there is still significant work to be done in order to be fully independent. Our team is ready and eager for the challenge. The communities and students we serve deserve nothing less.” Follow the College’s progress online, at oregoncoastcc.org/accreditation.

You can only audit a class if there are still seats available on the first day of class. This 100% tuition waiver does not cover lab fees, books, or other class fees. Many classes fill up early, so space is not guaranteed. To use the waiver, find the class you’d like to take in the class schedule, but don’t register yet. Print out the senior waiver form and contact the instructor on the first day of class. Get the instructor’s permission to take the class and have her/him sign the form, then return to Student Services in Newport or Lincoln City. After the waiver has been applied to your account, log into myOCCC and pay any fees not covered by the waiver. Registration prior to the first day of class will void the waiver.

GET ORGANIZED, with... Google Keep

From the electrician tracking a big project with notes and photos, to a couple sharing shopping lists so that neither one of them forgets a necessary item, Google Keep is becoming a must-have app for more and more folks. Students love the ability to store and sort notes and track assignment due-dates, appointments and more. This free Google feature is more than an organizational tool, it’s a digital brain that seamlessly integrates across Google Docs and other Google tools. Veteran SBDC instructor Lindsey Johnson leads this class and introduces you to the potential of Google Keep to help make your life just a little more organized. The class is split into two parts: a basic introduction in the first session, allowing partici-

pants a week to use and experiment with the app before attending session two, a follow-up gathering to talk about some more advanced uses and answer questions. This is an ideal class for business owners and managers, or for anyone with a busy life who may be looking for some fun, creative tools to help get things organized. Smartphones and laptops are welcome at the class; please be sure to

GET OPTIMIZED, with... SEO & Google Analytics

Google’s search engine uses a complex algorithm to determine which pages are displayed first in the results. Their exact formula is a secret, but there are always a few things you can do to improve your rank in Google search results. In this class we will cover those basics things you can do to improve your website ranking. There are no guarantees in the world of search – if someone promises you quick results, it’s probably a scam. No matter what you do, make sure you create a site that you want to visit, written the way humans would want to read it. This class is best for those businesses that currently have a website and are able to access Google Analytics data. The course shows how Google Analytics can track the ROI of a business’ online presence and its performance online. Students will learn how to track multiple websites, including how to track pages on Facebook, WordPress or other media.

Small Business Classes Social Media Marketing Two-Part Series

Is your head still spinning from all the recenty algorithmic changes made by Facebook and other SM platforms recently? How do you know whether you’re making the right decisions, and the right investments, in your online marketing efforts? This powerful two-session class is the place to start. PART 1: Designed for business owners with established accounts on Facebook, this course will delve deep into powerful paid (and free) advertising opportunities, including an in-depth look at Facebook’s remarkable Power Editor tool, which affords advertisers robust ways to target advertising very specifically, even here on the Oregon Coast. If you’ve taken Social Media Marketing courses in past years, it may be time for a checkup. The much-publicized algorithm changes Facebook rolled out earlier this year have forced Lincoln County businesses to make wholesale changes in the way they use the platform to grow their businesses. Has your business adjusted to the new playbook? PART 2: Are you using the right social media for your business? There are many platforms, they each work differently and can provide different results for different types of businesses. They also have different tools, strategies, clients and markets. How can an entrepreneur keep up and have the time to run a successful small business? This class will cover the many changes, updates and tools specific to each platform, and how to determine which ones may work best and provide results that will be worth the time and effort you invest.

Whether your business is lodging, retail or dining, graduates of the Lincoln County Star Excellence in Hospitality Program will rise to the top of your applicant pool.

Skills are pertinent for lodging, restaurants, transportation, attractions, and retail occupations. Successfully complete this course and you will have earned an internationally accredited certification that can help you stand out among other applicants for any job in the hospitality industry. All with sufficient scores on this test will be provided an official certificate and a lapel pin.
