TABLE OF CONTENTS One measure of how creative you are is how you respond to changes in your circumstances and environment. How flexible are you? Consider how water adapts to its environment: evaporation, condensation, snowflake, melting, flowing, goes around rocks, fills containers, etc. - Author Unknown
Are you faced with changes in your life? Perhaps in your job, education, personal or family life? Often, when first confronted with change, our initial reaction is to avoid or ignore it, if at all possible. However, just as water adapts to its climate, we must react to the change that is presented in our lives. This class schedule could be viewed as your roadmap to addressing the changes in your life, providing new directions to explore and new avenues to discover. Harford Community College recognizes the need for change. After more than forty years of providing space for the physical fitness needs of our students and the community, the Susquehanna Center will close in May for renovation. Some of you have been attending classes in this building since it opened and we realize you rely on these classes for your physical, and even social, wellbeing. With that in mind, we are excited to let you know that we will continue to offer noncredit physical education classes while Susquehanna Center is being renovated. Our partnership with Brightview-Avondale in Bel Air, a beautiful assisted living complex with a brand new salt-water pool, offers a fabulous off-campus location! Many of the teachers who you are used to seeing will be having classes at this facility in June. In addition, we are thrilled to be opening a new “storefront” location in Thomas Run Station across from the Harford Community College campus. In this great space, we will offer many familiar physical education classes like Zumba, aerobics, and adult ballet, as well as a host of new offerings including Senior Sizzle and Spiritual Bellydance. I encourage you to be flexible in responding to the changes in your life and at HCC: try a new class, explore a creative hobby, pursue a new career. While change is not always welcome in our lives, we can embrace it and be grateful for the push in a different direction! Sincerely,
Kathy Burley, Coordinator for Physical Education and Recreation

About our cover: We are excited to share with you the rendering of the new Susquehanna Center. In addition to a complete refurbishing, the renovated Susquehanna Center will house a large multi-use arena, additional fitness classrooms, and a completely redesigned fitness center. In order to make room for progress, the current Susquehanna Center will be closed for renovation beginning May 15, 2011, and is anticipated to reopen in the fall of 2012. Noncredit health and physical education classes will continue to be offered during the renovation at off-campus locations, including the pool at BrightviewAvondell and our new dance/exercise classroom at Thomas Run Station (next door to McShane’s).

Medical Billing & Coding
ONLINE
This nationally recognized Medical Billing and Coding online training certificate program is designed to prepare students to fill positions for medical coding and billing professionals. Skilled medical billing and coding technicians are in high demand these days!

Also, patient information must be entered into computer databases to comply with new Federal legislation requiring the use of electronic patient records. Finally, health care facilities are having difficulty attracting qualified workers, mostly because of the lack of both formal training programs and sufficient resources to provide on-the-job training for coders. All of these factors have combined to create a huge potential job market for qualified medical records technicians, and this course will provide you with the skill set and expertise that will make you irresistible to prospective health care employers. Upon successful completion of the Medical Billing and Coding course, students will be prepared for an entry-level position doing medical billing or coding in a medical office setting and will be prepared to sit for the CCA national certification exam.

COMMUNITY EDUCATION Golf Fundamentals
Hatha Yoga - Level I
Intermediate Hiking - Extended
Former Tour professional and now Master golf professional, Matthew Ferguson of the Australian PGA, provides a fun learning atmosphere for both men and women of all ages and ability. More than just learning the basics, this course offers something for all who want to learn the game of golf from scratch or to advance your current playing ability. Basic fundamentals will be covered such as the grip, stance, and posture, but most importantly students will be shown how tour players make it look so easy and how they are able to move the same way and get similar results. Etiquette, terminology, and different shot techniques will be covered, including full swing, pitching, chipping, putting, and bunker play. All class sessions will be held at Churchville Golf Driving Range at their new pro shop and teaching facility, Maryland’s only public indoor/outdoor all-weather teaching facility. Use of range balls and golf clubs are included in the cost. Minimum age 15.
Create a supple and relaxed body, increased vitality, and radiant health. Hatha Yoga is a systematic way to attain emotional harmony, physical health, and mental peace. Exercises include body postures, deep relaxation, breath control, cleansing processes, and mental concentration. Bring a towel or mat for exercising. Level I offers a slower progression of very gentle warm-ups and postures with shorter holding periods for the beginner who is mainly interested in relaxation techniques and muscle toning.
This class is for those hikers who desire more challenging trails with some strenuous hills in an extended area away from the college. Hikes will be between 4 and 7 miles in length. Review of hiking safety will be discussed. Students are expected to provide their own transportation to sites and must wear sturdy shoes or hiking boots. Bring a snack, water, and rain gear if necessary.

Both disciplines share the ideals of proper breathing, strengthening, flexibility, and meditation. This is a great opportunity for those who like both yoga and Pilates, but don’t have the time to schedule both classes. Class begins with traditional yoga warm up exercises, like sun salutation. We then transition to more intensive core exercises, some borrowed from Pilates.

Minimum Age Requirement
Maryland National Guard Waiver
Enrollment in noncredit courses is limited to individuals 16 and older, except for courses that specify they are open to those under 16.
Members of the Maryland National Guard are entitled to a waiver of 50% of tuition only for noncredit vocational-technical/ certification courses. Eligible students must provide a letter from their commanding officer certifying that the member of the Maryland National Guard has at least 24 months remaining to serve or has agreed, in writing, to serve for a minimum of 24 months. The College’s out-of-county and out-of-state residency surcharge is waived for courses meeting eligibility for a Maryland National Guard waiver, but the student is responsible for all other course fees.
Senior Adult Tuition Waiver Maryland residents 60 years of age or older at the time of registration are eligible for a tuition waiver for some noncredit courses. These courses are state-funded and will say “Senior adult and disabled retiree tuition waivers apply” in the course description. If the course description contains this statement, senior adults do not pay tuition costs for the course. Course fees, however, must be paid in full. Please note that for all courses there is no out-of-county surcharge for senior adults.
Disabled Retiree Tuition Waiver Any resident of the State of Maryland who is retired from the workplace by reason of total and permanent disability is eligible for a tuition waiver for some noncredit courses. These courses are state-funded and will say “Senior adult and disabled retiree tuition waivers apply” in the course description. If the course description contains this statement, disabled retirees do not pay tuition costs for the course. Course fees, however, must be paid in full. Please note that for all courses there is no out-of-county surcharge for disabled retired students.
Maryland National Guard Dependents Dependent spouses and children of a member of the Maryland National Guard and Maryland Air Guard may request a tuition and fee waiver when a Guard member is called to active duty for a minimum period of six continuous months of service.

Security Tips • Do not engage in conversation with people who make you feel threatened. • Being alone and under the influence of alcohol and drugs makes you more of a target to assailants. • Never drive (or ride with anyone) under the influence of alcohol and drugs. • Lock vehicle and store valuables and books in the trunk or out of sight. • Walk with others to and from class when possible; there is safety in numbers. • Use well-lighted areas and walkways.
HCC Crime Statistics*
• When walking to or from your vehicle, scan the area for suspicious subjects. If something makes you uncomfortable, walk to an area where other people are. • If you are confronted by an armed assailant, the decision to comply or resist is a personal one. Any property you may have is not worth your life. • Keep your keys ready when approaching your vehicle to reduce the time it takes to enter. • When driving at night, keep your doors locked and windows up. • When stopped at a traffic signal, maintain space between you and the vehicle in front of you so you can pull away if necessary. • Trust your intuition. Call College Security at ext. 2272 to report any suspicious activity.

Drug and Alcohol Philosophy Statement Harford Community College is dedicated to maintaining an educational environment in which students may be prepared for an enriched and productive participation in society, and thus enhance the quality of community life. The College is committed to providing a campus that is free of illegal drug use, and drug and alcohol abuse, and in so doing, supports the Drug Free Schools and Communities Act of 1989. The Drug Free Schools and Communities Act states that the use of illegal drugs and the abuse of alcohol by students and campus members can significantly impede the learning process. The College recognizes drug and alcohol abuse as an illness and a major health problem. The College also recognizes drug and alcohol abuse as a potential safety and security problem.

Security officers can be reached on campus by calling ext. 2272 and from off campus at 443-412-2272. Complaints/incidents of sexual assault occurring at HCC or during the course of HCC-sponsored activities must be reported to College Security.

College Security will also contact a staff member from the Student Intervention and Prevention Team, if available, to assist the victim through the reporting and referral process. Appropriate College administrators (associate vice president for student development, vice president for student development and institutional effectiveness, and/or vice president for marketing, development and community relations and/or division deans) will also be notified of the incident(s). Precautions will be taken to involve only those persons with concrete knowledge of the incident or with a legitimate educational interest.

The hospital is equipped with Maryland State Police Sexual Assault Evidence Collection Kits. Victims of sexual assault will be referred to the Sexual Assault/Spousal Abuse Resource Center (SARC) located in Bel Air, Maryland, for counseling services.
Student Intervention and Prevention (SIP) As members of the campus community, students have a shared ethical responsibility to report concerning behaviors they experience or observe. Concerning behaviors include emotional distress, unusual behavior, abuse of alcohol or illicit drugs, thoughts of suicide or homicide, disturbing written material, and other troubling behaviors. If you experience or you know or observe someone who exhibits any of these behaviors, it is your duty to report them on a Report Form for Concerning Behavior, www.harford.edu (Student Life Tab). You may also report the situation to the Associate Vice President for Student Development or designee, Student Center Room 254. While HCC does not have a counseling center, the College does have a SIP Team. SIP Team members are hand picked campus employees who, through their professional skill set, are capable of providing assistance to the student as necessary. The SIP team may meet with the student in question, assess the situation, provide resources, and/ or mandate an assessment.
