Step 1. Apply for Admission
CAREER-techincal programs
These students follow the same guidelines for registration as students 18 years of age and older. See Step 5. Home-Schooled Students Under Age 18 Home-schooled students will follow one of the specific procedures as outlined for ‘Students Age 15 and Under’ or for ‘Students Age 16 and 17’. Students, who have been released from compulsory attendance, must: • Submit the “Release from Compulsory Attendance Form” to the Admissions, Registration and Records Office. This form is obtained from the student’s resident high school district. Note: These students follow the same guidelines for ‘General’ admission. Financial Aid Eligibility of Under-Age Students For the purposes of financial aid eligibility, “underage” students are not “regular” students and are therefore not aid eligible. Regular students are defined as degree seeking students. Students concurrently enrolled in high school and MHCC are by federal regulation ineligible for financial aid. If a student is age 16 or older, has been released from compulsory high school attendance, and has completed a GED and/or completes the College Placement Test to meet the “Ability to Benefit” requirements, they may be aid eligible. The Office of Financial Aid will make the final determination of aid eligibility status based on documentation provided by the student.
Under-Age Students non-credit coursework Any student under the age of 18 may take “Community Education” classes, regardless of age, without special approval of MHCC staff. However, their parent or guardian must sign a MHCC “Release Agreement for Potential Injury or Liability Form”. This form is available in the Admissions, Registration and Records Office; the Academic Advising and Transfer Center; or the Web site. This form will be kept on file in the Admissions, Registration and Records Office and is valid for 12 months.
International Students To be considered for admission to Mt. Hood Community College, international students must submit the following to the Admissions, Registration and Records Office: • An International Student Application, MHCC Student Admission Form, and the non-refundable application fee

HOW TO ENROLL<> becoming CAREER-techincal a student programs at mhcc leges desired, the applicant must enter school codes or complete addresses for prospective colleges. The Mt. Hood Community College school code is 003204.
Application Verification
All schools and colleges must verify some of the data of FAFSA applications. Examples of verification materials required are: Student Status Letter (from the MHCC Web site), signed tax returns for some FAFSA submitters, family’s proof of untaxed agency income or benefits (Social Security, TANF, subsidized housing, etc.) Students who want to use credits from other colleges to satisfy requirements or pre-requisites for requirements for a Mt. Hood Community College degree will need to submit prior official transcripts to the College’s Admissions Office. At the time of evaluation, those credits will become part of the total credits used to determine further eligibility for financial aid under the Quantitative Measures Standards of Progress federal regulations.
Aid Disbursement
After the student is awarded financial aid, it is posted to their account and will be used directly to pay their tuition and fees. Any remaining aid will be disbursed by the preference selected when the student activates their MHCC Mountain Card. This refund can be used to buy books, pay for room and board, transportation and miscellaneous supplies and personal items usually on or after the first day of classes.
Step 3. Visit Testing Services Testing Services; Room AC 2335 503-491-7678; www.mhcc.edu/testing
Testing Services is often one of the first stops for potential students. To be properly placed into courses, new students must take a College Placement Test (CPT). This test, which covers reading, writing and mathematics, helps to assess your academic readiness and will help you choose classes that fit your present skill level. You may not have to take the placement test if: • You have transcripted college coursework in reading, writing, and/or mathematics. Bring a copy of your transcript to the
www.mhcc.edu
Step 4. Talk to an Adviser Academic Advising and Transfer Center; Room AC 2253 503- 491-7315; www.mhcc.edu/advising
New Students
The next stop for most new students is the Academic Advising and Transfer Center (AATC). The first year experience in college is an important time. It is a time to explore academic interests, course scheduling needs, and educational options towards the MHCC degree and career suited best for you. Plan to meet with an academic adviser early and often. This will allow you to get familiar with the college and develop your individual education plan. Prior to meeting with an adviser, students are encouraged to complete the on-line orientation, which can be found at www.mhcc.edu/orientation. Students may complete the on-line orientation in the Testing Center, the Academic Advising and Transfer Center, or from their home computer. The orientation provides students with key information about the college, degree options, and the registration process. Once orientation is completed, new students will work with an academic adviser to create a schedule of classes and a program of study based on their area of interest.
Continuing Students
Continuing students who have declared a major should seek information and assistance primarily from their faculty adviser, but the Advising Center can also be an academic resource for any student. Students should meet with their faculty adviser frequently to make sure they are on track toward meeting their educational goals. Contact information for faculty advisers is available at www.mhcc.edu/advising and on specific program pages of this catalog. The Academic Advising and Transfer Center remains the place to come for high quality academic advising for those students completing skill-building courses (e.g. RD90, WR90, MTH10, MTH20), those exploring program options, and those preparing to enter one of MHCC’s limited or restricted entry programs. Students may make an appointment with an adviser to develop an educational plan, review their degree progress through the degree audit reporting system (DARS), or receive an unofficial evaluation of transfer coursework and credit. Students may drop in
and utilize a library of regional college catalogs, advising guides for popular college majors, and access internet information for transfer schools’ curricula and academic programs nationwide.

Step 6. Pay for Classes Business Office – Student Billing Accounts Receivable; Room AC 2253; 503-491-6981 or 503-491-7276 www.mhcc.edu/pmt
2. Student Installment Payment Note Eligible students may enroll in a deferred payment plan. After a down payment, students may defer paying the balance of their charges in installments. Eligibility, due dates and instructions are available on the web at www.mhcc.edu/pmtplans 3. Veterans Deferred Payment Note Students with veteran’s certificate of eligibility may use the Veterans Deferred Payment Note.

Financial Aid/Scholarship If a student’s financial aid is not available by the first day of the term or does not completely cover their tuition amount, they should select option 1 or 2 above. If a balance remains on their student account past the due date, the account is subject to late fees and collection costs. 5. Agency or Company Arrangements for payment by an agency or company must be pre-approved by the college. The student is responsible to ensure that a payment authorization is on file in the College’s Accounts Receivable department by the first day of the term. Ultimately the student is responsible for payment of all unpaid charges, including late fees and third party service fees.
Payment Types
All payments must be made in US funds. Acceptable payment types include: Cash, Money Order, Check, E-Check (electronic check), American Express, Discover, MasterCard and VISA.
College Tuition and Fees
The MHCCD Board of Education sets tuition rates and reserves the right to make changes without notice. The amount of tuition you pay is determined by your residency and by the number of credit hours you are taking. Some classes require an additional course fee. There may be other types of fees assessed as well. A full description of tuition and fees are listed in the quarterly schedule of classes or on the web.
Payment Due Date
Payment for all tuition and fees is due on or before the published due date, usually the first day of the term. All charges on your student account must be paid in full before you can register for another term.
Payment Options
The college has four options available for payment. No other payment arrangements are available. 1. Pay all tuition and fees by the first day of the term. If a student registers after the term begins, payment is due the day of registration. This includes courses added from wait lists.

College services paid for by check will be provided 5 business days after payment occurs. An example of services include official transcript requests, awarding of degrees and certificates, and GED testing; but does not apply to tuition payment.
Student Financial Responsibility
By enrolling or having enrolled as a student at Mt. Hood Community College, you agree to be responsible for all charges on your student account and abide by the student account practices and policies. Students will be held accountable for understanding the practices and policies of college billing and collections. Detailed descriptions are provided on pages 208-210 of this catalog. They include: • Types of Fees • Definition of Terms • Student Account Statements • Past Due Accounts • Collections • Refunds • Billing and Collection Rights and Responsibilities
This information is also available: • In the applicable brochures • On the MHCC Web site, www.mhcc.edu.
Step 7. Plan for Success After you have taken care of all of the details needed to apply, enroll and register at Mt. Hood, you want to enjoy your time here, as well as maintain a good academic career. Certainly good study skills, adequate preparation, and attendance are important. Sometimes, though, other factors may affect how you persist at the school. We have many options that can assist you in this endeavor:
Career Planning / Declaring a major
The most successful students are those who have connected with a career focus and with faculty who share those career interests. Choosing a major is an important step in your academic life. Choosing a career and a major requires some introspection on your part. Our Career Planning and Counseling Center located in Room AC 1152 can help you discern your interests, skills, abilities and values, and tie those to majors and careers. You can declare your major at any time; just stop by the front desk in Student Services or Academic Advising and Transfer Center to update this information on your record. For more information, call 503-491-7432.
Design an educational plan
Once students have chosen a academic or career path, the college highly recommends developing an individual educational plan that will guide students as they complete their degree and course requirements. The Academic Advising and Transfer Center (AATC) can help students with this plan as well as with other advising needs. Students will work with an assigned academic adviser in their major field of study (career-technical or transfer) or a generalist adviser to complete their plan. The Advising Center also includes a transfer center area that can assist students in identifying transfer course requirements for their chosen field of study. Academic advisers are available to meet with students and answer questions regarding the entire transfer process. For more information or to schedule an appointment, students may contact the Advising Center at (503)-491-7315 or send an e-mail to advisque@mhcc.edu.
Help with charting your progress toward certificate or degree completion
Students are encouraged to use the college’s online Degree Audit Reporting System (DARS). DARS is an automatic real-time tool that keeps track of student progress toward specific certificate/degree programs at Mt. Hood Community College (MHCC). All classes taken at MHCC, as well as transfer coursework that has been evaluated, are compared to certificate / degree requirements to show the classes still needed to graduate from a specific program.
Mt. Hood Community college Catalog • 2009 - 2010 www.mhcc.edu
HOW TO ENROLL DARS is one of the easiest and most useful advising tools to use. With DARS students can: • Take the classes needed to graduate and/or transfer on time • Avoid taking unnecessary courses • Run audits for any major without being accepted to the program For more information, see the MHCC Web site at www.mhcc.edu/graduation for directions and an online demonstration.

1.
Complete a minimum of 90 applicable credit hours. (Some programs may require more than 90 credit hours.) Please refer to the Course Numbering System and Developmental Education courses on pages 210-211, with regard to courses not applicable toward a Mt. Hood Community College degree or certificate. Successfully complete all required courses in a career-technical curriculum as listed in the catalog. Courses counting toward degree requirements must be taken sequentially if the course is a prerequisite for another course. For example, Math 95 may not count toward a degree requirement if taken after Math 111, because Math 95 is a prerequisite for Math 111. However, if a course is not a prerequisite for another course, the courses may be taken in any order. For example, History 110 may count toward a degree requirement if taken after History 111, since History 110 is not a prerequisite to History 111. Repeated courses may be counted only once toward graduation unless specified in the course description or unless specifically required in a program curriculum. Achieve a MHCC cumulative grade point average of 2.00 or higher. Maintain a 2.00 GPA for all courses being applied toward the degree and maintain a 2.00 GPA in the candidate’s major classes (e.g., course prefixes such as DH, NRS, FI, etc.) Successfully complete the required general education courses. Students who are pursuing an MHCC Associate of Applied Science (AAS) degree at MHCC who have earned a baccalaureate degree or higher from an accredited institution of higher education will have satisfied the general education requirements for the AAS degree if the AAS curricula identify general education categories, i.e. communications, math/science/computer science. If the gen-

eral education requirements are listed specifically by course, i.e. SP111, PSY201, then those specific requirements must be listed on the incoming transcript in order for those courses to be satisfied. WR101, or WR121, WR122, Three credits of HPE, three credits of Human Relations and MTH 65 will automatically be satisfied by the baccalaureate degree. General Education Courses must be selected from the following approved table of General Education courses for the Associate of Applied Science Degree. Satisfactorily earn a minimum of 24 hours of applicable credit at Mt. Hood Community College and be in attendance at MHCC the term in which the degree/certificate is completed. Non-traditional credit (College Level Examination Program, Advanced Placement Program, Challenge, ExperiencedBased Credit, International Baccalaureate) does not satisfy this requirement. If extenuating circumstances prevent a student from being in attendance the last term, the student may petition via letter to take the remaining credits (maximum of nine) at a regionally accredited college or university. The letter must indicate the school at which the courses will be completed. It is the student’s responsibility to obtain written approval from MHCC of course acceptance prior to enrollment and to send an official transcript to MHCC upon completion of the coursework. Complete the application process and pay a nonrefundable graduation application fee two quarters prior to the quarter of completion (e.g., spring term graduates must apply during fall term). Only 200-level ENL count as General Education. Note: A maximum of 25 credits of ENL courses numbered 100 and above may be applied toward the AAS degree. (ENL94R, ENL94S, and ENL94W are not to be included. See Developmental Education Courses.) Note: A maximum of 9 credits of PE185 may be applied to the AAS degree. Note: Please refer to page 211 for a list of courses that are not applicable to this degree.

The Associate of Arts Degree will be awarded to students who satisfy the following requirements:
1.
Complete a minimum of 90 applicable credit hours. See #6 for an explanation. (Some programs may require more than 90 credit hours.) Successfully complete all required courses. Courses counting toward degree requirements must be taken sequentially if the course is a prerequisite for another course. For example, Math 95 may not count toward a degree requirement if taken after Math 111, because Math 95 is a prerequisite for Math 111. However, if a course is not a prerequisite for another course, the courses may be taken in any order. For example, History 110 may count toward a degree requirement if taken after History 111, since History 110 is not a prerequisite to History 111. Repeated courses may be counted only once toward graduation unless specified in the course description or unless specifically required in a program curriculum. Achieve a MHCC cumulative grade point average of 2.00 or higher. Maintain a 2.00 GPA for all courses being applied toward the degree and maintain a 2.00 GPA in the core requirements.

degree requirementS The Associate of Science Degree will be awarded to students who satisfy the following requirements:
1.
Complete a minimum of 90 applicable credit hours. See #5 for an explanation. (Some programs may require more than 90 credit hours.) Successfully complete all required courses in a career-technical curriculum as listed in the catalog. Courses counting toward degree requirements must be taken sequentially if the course is a prerequisite for another course. For example, Math 95 may not count toward a degree requirement if taken after Math 111, because Math 95 is a prerequisite for Math 111. However, if a course is not a prerequisite for another course, the courses may be taken in any order. For example, History 110 may count toward a degree requirement if taken after History 111, since History 110 is not a prerequisite to History 111. Repeated courses may be counted only once toward graduation unless specified in the course description or unless specifically required in a program curriculum. Achieve a MHCC cumulative grade point average of 2.00 or higher. Maintain a 2.00 GPA for all courses being applied toward the degree and maintain a 2.00 GPA in the core requirements. Successfully complete the following: Courses (except for elective credits) must be selected from the following table of approved courses for the Associate of Science The list is also available in the Admissions and Records Office, the Academic Advising and Transfer Center or from the program adviser. Complete elective courses to reach a total of 90 credits. The courses must be numbered 100 or above. Career-technical courses may only be applied to the Associate of Science degree in the following curricula which are governed by formal transfer agreements with four-year universities and are part of a current, formal transfer agreement with

oregon tranSfer module The one-year certificate will be awarded to students who satisfy the following requirements:
1.
Successfully complete all required courses in a one-year certificate program as listed in the catalog. Progression of classes must be vertical. That is, once a course has been successfully completed, a lower level course may not be taken for credit. Courses counting toward degree requirements must be taken sequentially if the course is a prerequisite for another course. For example, Math 95 may not count toward a degree requirement if taken after Math 111, because Math 95 is a prerequisite for Math 111. However, if a course is not a prerequisite for another course, the courses may be taken in any order. For example, History 110 may count toward a degree requirement if taken after History 111, since History 110 is not a prerequisite to History 111. The Oregon Transfer Module (OTM) allows for institutional recognition of the completion of one-year (full-time equivalent) of General Education coursework. Once awarded, the OTM is recognized by all of the public institutions of post-secondary education in the state.1 The Oregon Transfer Module may lead to an Associate of Arts / Oregon Transfer (AA/OT) degree or an Associate of Science / Oregon Transfer - Business (AS/OT-BUS) degree, from a community college, or to a baccalaureate degree from a university. The OTM is neither a certificate nor a degree. After completing the module, students are still obligated to take additional, institution-specific, General Education coursework if they pursue an AA/OT, an AS/ OT-BUS, or a baccalaureate degree. Any student completing an Oregon Transfer Module that conforms to the guidelines below will have met the requirements for the Oregon Transfer Module at any Oregon community college or institution in the Oregon University System.1 Upon transfer, the receiving institution may specify additional course work that is required for a major, for degree requirements, or to make up the difference between the Oregon Transfer Module and the institution’s total General Education requirements.2
www.mhcc.edu
GUIDELINES The OTM includes coursework chosen from the courses approved for the categories below by the institution issuing the credit. In the case of community colleges, these are courses approved for the AA/OT degree; in the case of universities and four-year colleges, they are courses approved for the General Education portion of a baccalaureate degree. All courses must have a grade of “C-” or better, and must be at least 3 credits (quarter system). Students must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 at the time the module is transcripted to their official academic record. Courses for an Oregon Transfer Module issued from Mt. Hood Community College must be selected from the list of approved courses. The list is also available in the Admissions, Registration and Records Office, the Academic Advising and Transfer Center or from a program adviser.3 Regionally accredited private colleges and universities within the state may offer and issue the Oregon Transfer Module, which will be accepted at any Oregon public college or university. Oregon Transfer Module credits may not match program requirements in the receiving school. The OTM supplements, but does not supplant existing articulation agreements and does not replace effective advising. Courses that are designed to prepare students for college-level work are not applicable to the transfer module. In Arts and Letters, the second year of a foreign language may be included, but not the first year. American Sign Language (ASL) is considered a foreign language. When choosing courses in science and mathematics, students and advisers should check the specific requirements at receiving schools. Courses that include a laboratory component, or that deal with specific subjects, may be required for majors or degrees. Computer Science courses used in the Math/Science/Computer Science area must meet Oregon Council of Computer Chairs criteria for a science course. See list of courses at (http://cs.bmcc.cc.or.us/occc/).

certificateS Certificate Requirements The one-year certificate will be awarded to students who satisfy the following requirements: 1. Successfully complete all required courses in a one-year certificate program as listed in the catalog. Courses counting toward degree requirements must be taken sequentially if the course is a prerequisite for another course. For example, Math 95 may not count toward a degree requirement if taken after Math 111, because Math 95 is a prerequisite for Math 111. However, if a course is not a prerequisite for another course, the courses may be taken in any order. For example, History 110 may count toward a degree requirement if taken after History 111, since History 110 is not a prerequisite to History 111. 2. All programs of study of one academic year or more in length for which certificates are granted require a recognizable body of instruction in program-related areas of 1) communication, 2) computation (mathematics), and 3) human relations. Please refer to the individual program for specific courses. Repeated courses may be counted only once toward graduation unless specified in the course description or unless specifically required in a program curriculum. Students who are pursuing an MHCC certificate at MHCC who have earned a baccalaureate degree or higher from an accredited institution of higher education will have satisfied the general education requirements for the certificate. However, students must complete or have completed the program specific general education course requirements within a certificate. 3. Achieve a MHCC cumulative grade point average of 2.00 or higher. 4. Maintain a 2.00 GPA for all courses being applied toward the certificate and maintain a 2.00 GPA in the candidate’s major classes. 5. Satisfactorily earn a 24 hours of credit at Mt. Hood Community College and be in attendance at MHCC the term in which the certificate is completed. Non-traditional credit (College Level Examination Program, Advanced Placement Program, Challenge, Experience-Based Credit, International Baccalaureate) does not satisfy this requirement. 6.

MHCC Philosophy of General Education Mt. Hood Community College holds that general education should accomplish two major objectives. One of these objectives is to provide students with knowledge that will help them attain their full potential as informed and responsible members of society. General education courses offer knowledge that enables students to communicate effectively, to explain relationships among societies, to articulate what it is to be human, to develop artistic expression, to analyze the natural world, and to make informed decisions about physical and mental health. A second purpose of general education is to equip students with the mental skills they must possess if they are to learn independently. Mental skills such as listening, speaking, writing, computing, analyzing, synthesizing and deliberating logically will enable students to learn on their own throughout their lives. Mt. Hood Community College intends that students who complete general education classes in the various categories listed below shall possess the kinds of knowledge and the kinds of mental skills essential if they are to develop their potential as individuals and as citizens. General education requirements are aimed at conveying to students the knowledge that each person is valuable and that communities of people are valuable. They are designed to prepare students to promote their own personal well being and that of society. A core of general education instruction permeates each of the college’s five degrees (AAS, AGS, AA/OT, AS, AS/OT-Business), offering students many opportunities to acquire the knowledge and mental skills they must possess to become lifelong learners and responsible citizens.

The Department of Visual Arts at MHCC offers useful and relevant preparation for careers in technology, information, imaging and self-expression. At MHCC you work with instructors who have earned national and international recognition as practicing artists. Their goal is to provide you with a strong foundation in design and drawing while encouraging you to explore other studio options as well. You will learn, too, how to develop portfolio work that prepares you for transfer to both private and public art schools.
Curricular Outcomes
At the completion of this curriculum, the student should be able to: • Exhibit competence in visual communication through the process of creating art • Employ aesthetic and critical thinking skills when transforming concept to form • Identify the historical, multicultural, and contemporary context in artwork • Articulate ideas expressed in artwork by integrating verbal, written, and visual communication skills. The two-year program listed below is designed to meet the requirements for an Associate of Science degree from MHCC.

NOTE: Prior to entry into the Dental Hygiene program, students must satisfactorily complete CH104, CH105 and CH106, or the equivalent, as well as selected high school level coursework. CH104 must be completed prior to the application deadline. During the program students must maintain a C grade or better in all dental hygiene courses to progress and to be recommended for dental hygiene licensure examinations.
programS & degreeS
Although BI121 and BI122 is the anatomy and physiology sequence currently required, students are encouraged to enroll in BI231, BI232 and BI233. This more advanced series fulfills the anatomy and physiology requirement and may transfer more readily for advanced degrees. All classes outside the core curriculum (those not preceded by DH) except general pathology may be taken prior to admission to the Dental Hygiene program. Students who used the College Placement Test (CPT) to demonstrate mathematics proficiency for program admission as of 2004 – 2005 will not meet the general education requirement for the Associate of Applied Science Degree. Four credits of a mathematics course (MTH65 or higher, excluding MTH211) must be transcripted before graduation. Please see page 10 for more details about the general education requirements of the Applied Associate of Science Degree. To receive points on your application a 100-level or higher mathematics course must be completed (excluding MTH211). Please check the MHCC Web site for any curricular changes that have occurred since the catalog was published.

Associate of Arts - Oregon Transfer with an emphasis in
Education MHCC Faculty Adviser Dr. Dain Smith: 503-491-7105 Room AC 2671 Dain.Smith@mhcc.edu If you want to be an elementary or secondary school teacher, you will be making a number of decisions: What age group do you want to teach? What subject do you want to teach? Will you transfer to a school with an undergraduate (Bachelor’s degree) or
graduate (fifth year/Masters) teaching program? Which school do you want to transfer to? The answer to these questions will help determine the appropriate courses to take. MHCC offers a number of education courses to help you determine if teaching is really for you and prepare you for transfer to a four-year university. Three courses, ED142, ED200 and ED209A/B, are recommended for students who want to more fully explore the profession before beginning an educational program.
Curricular Outcomes
At the completion of this curriculum, the student should be able to: • Demonstrate the reflective practitioner skills of observation and reflection • Provide an educational plan for their preferred Teacher Education program. Note: The sample two-year elementary education course of study listed below is designed to meet the requirements of the Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer (AA/OT) from MHCC and to prepare students to complete a baccalaureate degree (B.S.) in Multidisciplinary Studies from Eastern Oregon University and be licensed as an Oregon elementary teacher (PK - 8th grades as self-contained classrooms). Additional endorsements in Reading and ESOL are possible. See an EOU adviser for details. Education program requirements vary widely at the baccalaureate level so a student’s course work must be planned in accordance with their chosen transfer institution. Students completing an Associate of Arts degree are strongly encouraged to work closely with the MHCC Education faculty adviser and their transfer institution to develop a meaningful course of study at MHCC. Students interested in teaching at the secondary level (middle or high school) will want to follow a course of study that reflects the major area they wish to teach (i.e. Math, Social Science, Science, Health/PE, Language Arts, etc.). It is very important to consult with education advisers at both MHCC and the school you wish to transfer to as soon as possible since licensure and university requirements vary. ED142 Education Orientation and ED200 Introduction to Education are courses that should be taken early to help with planning what to take and where to transfer to. The following sample elementary education course of study is intended for EOU transfer and assumes that two years of High School foreign language were completed. If not, two terms of college-level modern language must be completed. Please see an EOU adviser.

Engineering MHCC Faculty Adviser Andy Dryden: 503-491-7482 Room AC 2581 Andrew.Dryden@mhcc.edu The Engineering Transfer curriculum offered at Mt. Hood Community College is designed to closely follow the pre-engineering program at Oregon State University, Portland State University, Washington State University and to meet the requirements for an Associate of Science degree from MHCC. This program is intended, specifically, for civil and mechanical engineering majors. However, it may be modified to meet the needs of students transferring into other disciplines of engineering and/or to other institutions. In all cases, the student must make application to both the transfer institution and the college or school of engineering.
Curricular Outcomes
The MHCC program has entry-level expectations of students for skills in reading, writing, and mathematics. Prior to fall term registration, it is highly recommended that you consult the MHCC engineering faculty adviser or The Academic Advising and Transfer Center. You should also make early contact with an adviser at the institution to which you plan to transfer. It is especially important that you do so, because the requirements at each institution may vary by engineering field. In addition, you will need to keep abreast of any changes in the program of your choice. It is your responsibility as a student to learn the program requirements of the school that you plan to attend. NOTE: This program is specifically designed for transfer to a four-year institution and is not intended for students who seek direct entry into the job market after completion of an associate degree. MHCC’s Engineering Technology program offers an AAS program intended for direct entry to the engineering technician job market.

MHCC’s Integrated Media program is an innovative approach to training students for employment in the thriving Creative Services industry. It’s the first of its kind in Oregon and leverages decades of faculty experience, state of the art facilities, and the rapidly emerging emphasis on digital media. The Integrated Media Program is a unique opportunity for you to explore a broad-based digital media education. There is high demand for employees with digital skills. Powerful, affordable computers and access to high-speed Internet has changed the way we create and consume media. The Integrated Media Program emphasizes a shared core of digital skills across the disciplines of photography, design, audio and video. Classes are small, focused and rigorous. Because businesses increasingly require content creators from each discipline to work in collaboration, students are encouraged to select an option area for specialized instruction while gaining experience in the wider field of Integrated Media. You’ll achieve fluency in multiple design settings and applications, conceptualizing, building and promoting projects. Computers are the primary tool for planning and presenting work created with digital tools. Examples include using software to design a print ad or magazine spread, record a podcast, manipulate photographic images for a montage or produce a video. Students use digital media to put their ideas into motion, creating animations, sound tracks, titles and an array of special effects. In many instances, the final presentation is viewed only on a computer or via the Internet or on a personal media player.
This information is meant to serve as a general guide for students intending to transfer to Oregon Institute of Technology (OIT) and major in this program. The requirements are as of the 2008-09 OIT catalog. It is the student’s responsibility to contact OIT to confirm current specific admission and degree requirements.
Employers favor those who have excellent technical skills as well as the behavior to work effectively in teams and independently. Today’s creative professional needs to be able to function beyond the boundaries of a single discipline and is often called upon to contribute in a variety of media. Portland’s demand for creative talent is supported by well-known international firms such as Nike, Adidas, Wieden+Kennedy, Laika, and Columbia Sportswear.
Integrated Media
Many graduates find that freelancing (contract work) offers higher pay and more flexibility than being a full time employee, so we’ll teach you the business skills to succeed as a creative contractor.

A Claims Analyst uses the same skills as a billing specialist. The duties of a claims analyst may include: overseeing claims processing and payments to third-party providers, monitoring charges and verifying correct payment of claims, sending denial letters on claims, and sending follow-up requests for information. The claims analyst reviews payment reports for accuracy and compliance. Medical Billing Specialists/Claims Analysts can work in hospitals, insurance companies, doctors’ offices, medical billing companies, nursing homes, medical group practices, home health agencies, and medical clinics. Students who complete this shorter term Medical Billing/Claims Analyst program can go to work and return at any time to complete the Medical Office Specialist AAS degree.

Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer with an emphasis in
Modern Languages MHCC Faculty Advisers Ursula Irwin: 503-491-7606 Room AC 2388 Ursula.Irwin@mhcc.edu Eric Tschuy: 503-491-7469 Room AC 2376 Eric Tschuy@mhcc.edu Aurora Benenati: 503-491-7494 Room AC 2393 Aurora Benenati@mhcc.edu Paul Eckhardt: 503-491-7497 Room AC 2392 Paul.Eckhardt@mhcc.edu In a world that is increasingly interdependent, knowledge of other cultures and languages is crucial. In East Multnomah County, the three languages most needed by local businesses and service agencies, after English, are Spanish, Russian, Chinese and American Sign Language (ASL). State-wide, Oregon’s two biggest trade partners are Japan (world’s second largest economy) and Canada (one-quarter French speaking). Other important Oregon customers and investors are Germany, France and Mexico. French is the world’s second most studied language. German is the second most prominent language in the global business world. Germany has the world’s third largest economy. Spanish is the second most spoken language in the United States, and the main language of 19 countries. All three are important heritage languages in the USA. MHCC offers: ASL, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Russian and Spanish.
First Year (Beginning) 101, 102, 103:
At the completion of the first year, the student should be able to: • (Listening)—understand short, learned utterances and some sentence-length utterances • (Speaking) - Express personal information by relying on learned phrases or re-combinations of these - Manage uncomplicated communicative tasks in straightforward social situations - Ask simple questions or make statements involving learned material
• (Reading)—exhibit sufficient control of the writing system to interpret written language in limited areas of practical need • (Writing)—produce material consisting of recombinations of learned vocabulary and structures into simple sentences on familiar topics
Second Year (Intermediate) 201, 202, 203:
At the completion of the second year, the student should be able to: • (Listening)—sustain comprehension over longer stretches (beyond the sentence level) • (Speaking) - Express personal information by creating with the language - Initiate, sustain, and close a general conversation with a number of strategies - Exhibit evidence of connected discourse, particularly for simple narration and description • (Reading)—read consistently with increased understanding simple connected texts dealing with a variety of basic and social needs • (Writing)—demonstrate most practical writing needs including simple letters, paraphrases, and summaries of biographical data, work, and school experiences. The two-year program listed below is designed to meet the requirements for an Associate of Arts - Oregon Transfer degree from MHCC and prepare a student for obtaining a Bachelor of Arts in Modern Languages from a four-year public university in Oregon. Students transferring from MHCC may also seek a baccalaureate at a different institution, which may require different courses within the various subject areas of General Education. It is recommended that students consult with their adviser and refer to the catalogs and Web sites of the institutions in which they have interest. All OREGON TRANSFER STUDENTS MUST FULFILL A SECOND LANGUAGE REQUIREMENT. For admission: two college terms of the first year (101 and 102) of a language other than English OR four semesters in high school. For graduation with a B.A.: the second year (201, 202 and 203, or equivalent) of a language other than English. Study Abroad options are available and recommended as part of language study at MHCC. Currently, there are spring term and summer programs in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico (Spanish); summer programs in Costa Rica (Spanish and biology) in Kyoto, Japan, for Japanese and in Stadthagen, Germany for German; a fall program in Florence, Italy; and a spring program in Paris, France. In all cases, language study is facilitated and enriched by cultural immersion. Check with a faculty adviser in Modern Languages for details. (Programs may be changed or cancelled due to circumstances at the time of offering or departure.)

Four years of large Ensemble courses (MUP101/201; MUP121/221; MUP146/246) are required by most baccalaureate programs. 2 Most baccalaureate programs require four years of Applied Individual Lessons. An approved instructor list is available in Performing Arts. Students can expect to be auditioned and assigned a level upon entry into a four-year program. This assignment will reflect the students’ level of achievement and may not necessarily rely on the number of credits completed. 3 First-year Music Theory and Sight Singing/Ear Training requires concurrent enrollment in Group Piano. Students who wish to strengthen their music background may also want to register for MUS101, Music Fundamentals. The department sometimes offers a section of the first-year music theory sequence beginning in the winter so that students who need to complete Music fundamentals may begin the sequence in winter term and complete it during the summer. 4 One year of Group Piano (or proficiency) is required prior to taking Keyboard Harmony classes in the second year. 5 Fewer General Education classes are required for the Bachelor of Music (B.MUS or BM) degree than for other baccalaureate degrees. Students should consult an adviser to determine which General Education courses are required for transfer to their selected school. 6 Second-year Music Theory requires concurrent enrollment in Keyboard Harmony or Advanced Sight Singing/Ear Training. 7 Two years of Music History are required for a baccalaureate degree. The second year of Music History is taken at the junior level.

Outdoor labs are an integral part of the coursework. Students learn field techniques that they will use on the job in local forests, parks and natural areas. The courses incorporate technologically advanced equipment and software into the field data collection and analysis. In addition, each student completes a cooperative work internship, which gives college credit for on-the-job work experience.
Program Outcomes
At the completion of this program, the student should be able to: • Perform relevant field tasks required of natural resource technicians • Use a broad range of technological tools to research, document, map, measure, record and analyze data relevant to natural resources • Demonstrate a practical understanding of Pacific Northwest forest ecosystems • Demonstrate knowledge of social influences on ecosystem management • Demonstrate professional skills needed for successful job performance. Students desiring to enter the Natural Resources Technology program are advised that admission is on a first-come, firstserved basis after satisfactory completion of placement criteria.

Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer with an emphasis in
Philosophy MHCC Faculty Adviser: Chris Jackson: 503-491-7284 Room AC 2672 Chris.Jackson@mhcc.edu Philosophers are interested in trying to provide plausible answers to life’s most profound questions. 1. What, ultimately, is going on?
Is there a God who created us for some purpose? Must we grasp this purpose and take specific actions or be on the losing side of some great spiritual battle? Is God perhaps merely interested in watching the show? Is nature all there is and God a mere figment of our imaginations? 2. What kind of thing is a human being? Are we creatures of God possessing an immortal soul, or are we merely animals? Were we created by intelligent design, or are we the product solely of naturalistic evolutionary processes? Do we have sufficient freedom of the will to be truly deserving of praise and blame for what we do, or are we only complicated physical systems like computers and storms that are not responsible morally for what they do? 3. How should a human being live? Should I seek mainly my own happiness? How concerned with the welfare of others should I be? How should I treat others and expect others to treat me? It is true that philosophers rarely reach a consensus about which answer is indisputably the right one for any given philosophical question. But it is still the case that, as with other noble pursuits, the connoisseur of ideas can at least identify the few best answers, and from these few he or she can sometimes reach personal closure - an intelligent and informed personal closure. So why let others answer these questions for you? Why settle for being a second-hand person? Isn’t it time to own your mind?
Curricular Outcomes
At the completion of this curriculum, the student should be able to: • Identify questions addressed in the three main areas in philosophy: metaphysics, epistemology (including logic) and ethics • Recall some of the contributions of the major philosophers (e.g., Socrates, Plato, Descartes, Kant, Nietzsche, Mill, Rawls, et cetera) • Examine some of the main problems and proposed solutions/criticisms in philosophy, along with the concepts instrumental to participating in the philosophical dialogue regarding these problems • Define the basic vocabulary of logic • Translate an argument from its original context into a more concise and orderly summary (i.e., an argument standardization or diagram) • Distinguish the main valid forms from invalid impostors • Assess the strength of the concise restatement of the argument, with particular attention given to the strength of the inference. The two-year program listed below is designed to meet the requirements for an Associate of Arts - Oregon Transfer degree from MHCC and prepare a student for obtaining a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy at Eastern Oregon University, Oregon State University, Portland State University, Southern Oregon University, University of Oregon or Western Oregon University. However, students from MHCC seeking a baccalaureate degree may also

transfer to other institutions. These institutions may require different courses within the various areas of General Education requirements. Students interested in transferring to a four-year college or university after MHCC should consult with the institution they will be attending, the faculty advisers and/or the MHCC Academic Advising and Transfer Center.

Janet Campbell: 503-491-7430 Room AC 2667 Janet.Campbell@mhcc.edu Completion of these courses fulfills the degree requirements for the Associate of Arts - Oregon Transfer degree (AA/OT) which provides junior standing at all of the Oregon University System schools. However, students from MHCC seeking a baccalaureate degree may also transfer to other institutions. Institutions outside of the Oregon University System may have different general education requirements, so students should be sure to consult directly with their transfer institution as soon as possible. These recommendations are a general guideline; students can make substitutions according to AA/OT guidelines, and there are specific recommendations available from the Political Science Department. For assistance, contact Janet Campbell, Social Sciences, or an MHCC adviser. Each of the political science courses on this page is offered at least once a year at Mt. Hood Community College, and some are available in an on-line format. So why study politics? Many students think political science is “dry” and “boring.” NOTHING could be further from the truth. Politics affects the way you think, eat, dress, socialize, and work, so it may be worth knowing about. Once you DO know about it you can begin to 1) understand what is going on around you, and 2) think for yourself. Here’s what students say: “I feel more powerful now knowing what I know”, “it changed my life”, “it was fun!”

Associate of Art - Oregon Transfer with an emphasis in
Undecided/Undeclared Exploratory
The exploratory curriculum is recommended as a starting place for students who are undecided about a major. The intent of this curriculum is to allow students to actively explore their educational options while also working towards a degree. Actively exploring educational options involves meeting with a faculty adviser on a regular basis, taking a career planning class, and taking exploratory classes. Students who complete this curriculum will earn an Associate of Arts - Oregon Transfer degree, which allows a student to fulfill all Lower Division General Education requirements for many Oregon universities (see page 11 of the college catalog). It should be noted that while this curriculum is a good fit for liberal arts degrees, the AA/ OT does not guarantee junior status for all schools, departments or major requirements with regard to courses or grade point average. A note on exploratory classes: A great way to ‘try out’ a major is to take an introductory, or exploratory, class in the area you are interested in. Doing this gives you the opportunity to check out a variety of possible majors; you may even discover, in this process, the one you want to pursue. The guide to exploratory classes below follows the distribution degree requirements for the AA/ OT and allows a student to sample specific academic areas. The first three quarters we suggest that you choose classes that seem the most interesting to you (this is your exploration time). The second three quarters are when you need to make sure you are meeting

Course Requirements The course requirements for MHCC programs are sub ject to change each academic year. For MHCC certificate/degree requirements, a student must follow the program requirements either for the year the student is officially admitted to the program or the year the student is completing the program.
Student Progress Students in limited or restricted-entry programs are expected to complete the curriculum within the normal two-year period. However, a program may be extended with permission from the program faculty adviser. In such cases, the student will need to complete a “Petition for Change of Status” form. This form outlines the details of the program extension agreement. Because of enrollment limitations, extending a program beyond two years must be on a space-available basis. If the student’s studies are interrupted or extended by 5 years or more, by two or more years, or if the course of study extends beyond five years, degree requirements for graduation may have changed and the student may be asked to complete current requirements in order to earn the certificate or degree. Students who are unable to maintain satisfactory progress may, through a process of review, be removed from a program. This is especially true in regard to clinical education in which patient safety is involved. Advanced Standing Students with previous training may be admitted to programs with advanced standing. This may be possible where students have partially completed similar programs at other institutions or where related one-year certificates have been completed. Students seeking advanced placement into a limited or restrictedentry program should apply like other students. In the event they are offered admission the student will undergo a transcript evaluation to determine their advanced placement.
Registration and Attendance Registration
Registering for Classes
Registration is a formal process made by the student in the Admissions, Registration and Records Office in the Student Services Center or via the Web. Students may register via our online services (http://my.mhcc. edu/ics) until midnight the night before the first day of a class. Registration is also available through the Admissions, Registra-
tion and Records Office in the Student Services Center during regular business hours. After 12:01 a.m. on the day a class begins, instructor permission will be required to register late or to add the class. Students should take the signature add slip and attend class for the instructor permission. Instructors are also available in person during posted office hours, by phone, or email. Instructor permission may be granted via an authorized or signed add form or email message. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure the approved add is processed through the Admissions, Registration and Records Office. Students may only register or add a class through the 2nd week of instruction (or the equivalent for non-standard length classes) with the instructor’s permission. The Coordinator of Registration or designee will handle any exceptions to this on a case-bycase basis. Students whose names do not appear on the instructor’s class list are not officially registered and will not receive credit or grades. Caution: Students should be aware that registering for classes after instruction has begun is detrimental to their learning. Any student entering a course late will be held responsible for all materials previously covered. Students are not guaranteed make-up privileges. Late registration may result in little or no refund period.
Wait Lists BEFORE Classes Begin If a class is full, a student can choose to go on a wait list. Wait lists are available only until a course begins. If, while on a wait list, a seat becomes available, the student will be officially added to the class by the Admissions, Registration and Records Office; therefore, the student is responsible for knowing his/her position on the wait list or class list. Being added to a class from a wait list will affect the student’s financial account and the student is responsible for any additional tuition and/or fees. Students may call 503-491-7393 or stop by the Admissions, Registration and Records Office in the Student Services Center to check their wait list or class list status. Students will not be added to a class from a wait list if it creates a schedule conflict or if the student is already registered in another section of the same class. If on multiple wait lists for the same class, the student will be added to the first opening and dropped from all other wait lists. Students need to notify the Admissions, Registration and Records Office in the Student Services Center if they no longer want to be on a wait list.

ACADEMIC INFORMATION
DROPPING AND WITHDRAWALS
Wait Lists AFTER Classes Begin After the term begins, wait listed students will be officially added to classes as seats become available up until the day before the first day of the class. Students will be notified via a phone or email if it is too late to notify by mail; therefore, the student is responsible for knowing his/her position on the wait list. Being added to a class from a wait list will affect the student’s financial account and the student is responsible for any additional tuition and/or fees. After the class has met, all students, including wait listed students, must obtain the instructor’s permission (via an add slip, email, or other documentation) to add the class. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure the approved add is processed through the Admissions, Registration and Records Office. Students whose names do not appear on the instructor’s class list are not officially registered and will not receive credit or grades. Open Entry/Open Exit. All registration for open entry/open exit classes closes two weeks prior to the end of the term. At that time registration for open entry/open exit classes will be recorded for the following term.
Attendance Students are responsible for their attendance in courses for which they are enrolled. See a specific course syllabus for attendance requirements.
IMPORTANT No-Show Drop Procedure
Students should be aware that attendance is mandatory the first week for some classes. Also, students who do not attend class during the first four weeks of class (or the equivalent for nonstandard length courses) may be dropped at the discretion of the instructor. However, non-attendance does not guarantee that you will be dropped from your classes. A failing grade may result based on non-attendance. It is the student’s responsibility to process a drop or withdrawal in the Admissions, Registration and Records Office or by Web for classes they do not want.
Absences
Absence due to serious illness may be excused. However, students who miss classes lose some of the content of the course. Being excused does not excuse students from the work covered during absences. Students are not automatically excused from other classes to attend field trips or intercollegiate functions. When schedule conflicts occur because of field trips, students should notify instructors of classes to be missed and, in cooperation with that instructor, make arrangements for completing the work missed. In case of an unsolvable conflict, students

|
will not be penalized for missing the class or the field trip, whichever the case may be. Students whose absences are due to participation in intercollegiate functions and other co-curricular trips arranged by the college will be excused from class attendance but not from the responsibility for the work they miss during their absence for approved functions.
Dropping and Withdrawals Dropping a Class Standard term-length classes dropped within the first two weeks will not appear on the transcript. If a student drops or withdraws after the two-week period, a “W” grade will be assigned. Non-attendance is not a basis for a refund or nonpayment of tuition. Registration constitutes liability unless a formal drop or withdrawal is processed within the refund period through the Admissions, Registration and Records Office. The refund date for each class is printed on the student class schedule. Please note: The refund date for single weekend computer courses is the Wednesday before the course begins. A student may drop any standard-length class through the Friday of the seventh week of instruction. Check with the Admissions, Registration and Records Office for the last day to drop nonstandard-length classes. Students signing a deferment of funds are still liable even if the aid is denied unless they withdraw in writing in the Admissions, Registration and Records Office within the refund period.
Withdrawing From College Formal withdrawal from the college is defined as dropping ALL classes. Students have the option to withdraw from college through the last day of instruction but before final exams. The withdrawal must be received and processed by the Admissions, Registration and Records Office in one of the following ways: in-person, mail, Web or by telephone at 503-491-7393. Note: After Friday of the seventh week (or equivalent) students can only withdraw in person or by calling 503-491-7393. Refunds and grades are determined according to regulations printed in the quarterly schedule. If a student withdraws from college within the first two weeks of the term or the equivalent, the classes will not appear on the transcript. If a student drops or withdraws after the second week of the term, the classes with a grade of “W” will appear on the transcript. However, any grade earned to date in nonstandard term-length or mini-term classes will remain, and the “W” grade will be assigned only to classes not yet completed. Students who merely stop attending classes without formally dropping or withdrawing will receive the grades assigned by their
instructors and will not receive a refund of tuition and fees or a removal of charges if tuition and fees have not been paid. Students are advised to consult their instructors prior to withdrawal. Students receiving veterans’ benefits also must notify the veterans’ clerk of intention to withdraw. Failure to do so may result in overpayment which will need to be returned to the Veterans Administration. Students receiving financial aid also must notify the financial aid office of their intention to withdraw.
Billing and Collection Types of Fees Admission Fee: A one-time fee charged to all new students who register for credit-bearing courses. The fee is assessed the first time a student registers for a credit course. Student Fee: Student fees are disbursed on a comprehensive program basis for student government activities and for intercollegiate sports. The statement of philosophy of this financial support can be found in the Appendix of Board Policy and college Regulations. Technology Fee: Technology fees provide for changing technological needs of the district. Special Fees: Certain classes require tools, uniforms, equipment, insurance, etc., which are not covered by tuition or course fees.
Definition of Terms Auditing: students (no credit or grade) pay in accordance with the tuition/fee schedule. Residency: Determination of residence for admission and other purposes will be made according to the following definitions: Residence is defined as a person’s domicile, his/her true fixed and permanent home and place of habitation. It is the place where one intends to remain, and to which one expects to return when one leaves without intending to establish a new domicile elsewhere. Domicile is not established by mere attendance at the college. A valid drivers license, permit or ID card from Oregon, California, Idaho, Washington or Nevada is required for all students requesting in-state residency. Oregon residency must be established 90 days prior to the first day of class. In-State Student: An American citizen or immigrant who has established residency in Oregon 90 days prior to the beginning of classes.

Mt. Hood Community college Catalog • 2009 - 2010 www.mhcc.edu
Billing and Collection International Student: A citizen of another country in the United States on a visa other than an immigrant visa. Reciprocity: An American citizen or immigrant who has established residency in Washington, California, Idaho or Nevada. Reciprocal students pay in-state tuition. Golden Age Discount: Mt. Hood Community College offers a discount on tuition to in-district residents age 62 or older (does not include fees).
Student Account Statements Account information is available online. In addition to the on-line information, monthly statements are mailed around the last week of each month. Monthly statements are: • A courtesy • Mailed to the address on file • An account of activity for the previous 30 days. • Not mailed for accounts with balances of $5.00 or less Note: It is the student’s responsibility to update the college with any change of address.
Past Due Account Tuition and fees that are not paid by the published due date are considered “past due”. The consequences for a past due account are as follows: Late payment penalty - Failure to pay tuition/fees or to process an approved Student Installment Payment Note by the due date will result in late payment penalties. A $10 late fee is assessed on charges every 30 days past due with a maximum of $30 each term. A student account that has been assessed one late fee is considered a delinquent account. Financial holds -Financial holds are placed on student accounts with past due balances after the 2nd Friday of each term. This hold will restrict registration and withhold official transcripts, degrees and certificates. Denial of credit - The College may require advance payment of future services on accounts that have been previously referred for collection.
Returned Checks The current penalty charge listed on the web and all collection fees, including court costs and attorney fees, are charged to the student account on returned checks of any nature. Any returned check intended as payment of a student account, will be considered as non-payment and subject to the conditions listed in the Past Due accounts section. If a returned check was used to pay off a previous debt in order to register for the current term, the student will be administratively dropped from the current term.
www.mhcc.edu
After the college has received two returned checks; personal checks will not be accepted. The student must remit with an alternative payment type; payment by cash, money order or currently accepted credit/debit cards.
Collections Delinquent accounts 90 days past due may be turned over to an outside collection agency for collection of the debt. The College cannot make or accept special payment arrangements to avoid assignment to a collection agency. The consequences for a student’s account being turned over to collections are as follows: Student will be responsible for repayment of the original debt plus collection costs; court costs and attorney’s fees related to the collection of all delinquent debts owed to the college. The Oregon Department of Revenue may withhold the student’s tax refund and remit it to the college as payment toward their outstanding debt. The student’s account may be reported to one or more nationally recognized credit-reporting bureaus. Arrangements for repayment must be made with the outside collection agency not the College. Educational debt is non-dischargeable under Section 523 (a) (8) of the US Bankruptcy Code. There is no statute of limitation on the collection of educational debt. Therefore, the College will attempt to collect from any student who seeks services of the College, even if that account had previously been deemed non-collectable.
Refunds Students will receive a 100 percent removal of tuition charges and refundable fees for classes dropped via the web or in person at the Student Services office by the published refund date. Refunds are automatically processed as a credit on the student account. Any credit applied to a student account resulting from a removal of charges or overpayment will first be applied to any institutional debt, even if the amount owed is not yet due. Late registration, class additions or registering for the next term may result in little or no refund. If any payments were made with a credit/debit card, refunds are first credited back to the card up to the amount charged. All other refunds are processed through the college’s refund management service or by check made payable to the student and mailed to the address on file. The complete refund process is available on-line at www.mhcc.edu/refunds. Non-attendance is not a basis for a refund or nonpayment of tuition. Registration constitutes liability unless a formal drop or withdrawal is processed during the refund period. Students using financial aid to pay tuition are still liable (even if aid is denied) unless they drop or withdraw within the refund period.

Transfer Credits Transferring from MHCC: Transfer students are responsible for determining the requirements of the institution and program to which they plan to transfer. Transferring to MHCC: Mt. Hood Community College accepts college-level credits earned in academic certificate and degree programs from colleges and universities accredited by one of the following regional Associations of Colleges and Schools -- Middle States, North Central, New England, Northwest, Southern or Western. Students will need to request a transcript evaluation from the Admissions, Registration and Records Office if transfer courses are to be applied toward an MHCC certificate or degree. This evaluation will be done once the student has enrolled in classes at Mt. Hood Community College and is official when a graduation application has been processed. Upon completion of the certificate or degree program, the transfer credits applied will be recorded on the MHCC student transcript. The transcript evaluation form is available at www.mhcc.edu/graduation. Students should send official transcripts to the Admissions, Registration and Records Office. Transfer coursework from foreign institutions must be evaluated by an outside credential evaluation service. The evaluation company must be either AACRAO Foreign Education Credential Service (www.aacrao.org) or a member of the National Association
www.mhcc.edu
of Credential Evaluation Services (NACES). For a list of NACES memberships, please refer to their web site at www.naces.org. The evaluation must be a course-by-course evaluation with an official copy submitted to the Admissions, Registration and Records Office. The coursework must be considered to be at a post-secondary level, have comparable MHCC accreditation status and be parallel in content to MHCC coursework. The outside evaluation must also be completed for secondary level education for any evaluation of that coursework toward MHCC admission requirements. Students will need to also provide course descriptions in English for any courses they wish to apply toward admission or degree requirements. Credit may be granted for military courses based upon The Guide to the Evaluation of Educational Experiences in the Armed Services and if the courses apply to the student’s MHCC major. Two (2) credit hours of PE185 credit may be granted toward an Associate Degree at Mt. Hood for completion of military basic training. A copy of the DD214 form is required.
Alternative Ways to Earn College Credit: High School Dual Credit – College Now is Mt. Hood Community College’s Dual Credit program. In cooperation with certain high schools, MHCC offers students the opportunity to earn both MHCC lower-division transfer credit and career-technical credit through submission and acceptance of a registration form per college deadlines, and completion of course materials and standards as approved by MHCC. A list of high schools and courses approved to earn MHCC credit is available online at www.mhcc.edu/collegenow. Each high school’s counseling office will also have a list of courses approved at that school. The list varies among high schools.

GRADes <> CAREER-techincal ACADEMIC INFORMATION programs Credit for trade or industrial experience and training will be granted upon completion and recommendation by the appropriate local training committee. College fees for the degree assessed at the time of application will be based upon three conditions: 1) Number of credits recommended by appropriate local training committee; 2) Current college fee per college credit; 3) Number of credits previously paid for. Earned credit will be transcripted to a MHCC permanent record. Earning MHCC credit at a high schools does not automatically enroll a person in a MHCC certificate or degree program. MHCC admissions procedures and requirements must still be met. Credit transfer acceptability is at the discretion of the receiving institution.
Grades Grades are not mailed. They are available via the web at www.mhcc.edu. Your user name is your MHCC ID number.
Grade Point Average A Excellent: 4 points for each credit hour B Above Average: 3 points for each credit hour C Average: 2 points for each credit hour D Below Average: 1 point for each credit hour F Failing: 0 points for each credit hour U Unsatisfactory: 0 points per credit hour The following are not included in GPA calculations: S Satisfactory: 0 points per credit hour I Incomplete: 0 points per credit hour K Continuing Progress: 0 points per credit hour X Audit: 0 points per credit hour W Withdrawal: 0 points per credit hour NR Not received from instructor IP Course still In-Progress MHCC computes GPA using the 4-point system and by dividing the total grade points by the total quality credits. Grades are assigned based on work completed at the end of the scheduled class time. Additional work or make-up after the ending date of the class is not justified unless an Incomplete was assigned. Grades and/or records found to be fraudulent will be changed.
Incompletes A student may be assigned an “I” (Incomplete) when insufficient work to justify a grade has been done by the student due to excusable reasons. Though individual circumstances may warrant unique decisions, it is commonly expected that the student will have completed at least 75 percent of the course requirements.
212
|
Incompletes are to be made up prior to the end of the following term unless the student is no longer enrolled. Under these circumstances, the work must be made up in the term of the return with only a four-quarter maximum (including summer) permitted. Incompletes not made up within these timelines do not automatically revert to a grade. They remain an “I,” unless changed by the instructor.
K Grade A “K” (continuing progress) indicates that a student was registered for the course, was in attendance, met some of the objectives but did not advance far enough to receive credit for completion. This grade designation is limited to developmental education courses and to open entry/open exit courses (where the student is permitted to proceed at one’s own pace). A student who receives a “K” grade must reregister, repay, and pass the class satisfactorily to receive credit. The K grade remains on the transcript. A student completing a developmental education course may receive a “K” grade up to two times for the same course and may only take the course a third time with the recommendation of the developmental education instructor and the Vice President of Student Success and Enrollment Services. Note: Students attempting a course for a third time who are receiving financial aid, veterans’ benefits or athletic eligibility must reregister for these credits above and beyond the hours necessary to maintain benefits.
Pass/Fail Option Certain courses offer the student an option to receive a grade of S (satisfactory) or U (unsatisfactory) instead of letter grade (A, B, C, D, or F). This option must be exercised at the time of registration or no later than the end of the seventh week of instruction for standard term-length classes. Check with the Admissions, Registration and Records Office for last day to change grading status for nonstandard-length classes.
S Grade For evaluation and transferability purposes, the S grade is equivalent to a grade of C or better.
Audit Option Students electing to audit a class (no grade, no credit) must choose this option at the time of registration or no later than the end of the seventh week of instruction for standard term-length classes. Check with the Admissions, Registration and Records Office for last day to change grading status for nonstandard-length classes. Auditing students pay in accordance with the tuition schedule and participate to a degree determined by them and the instructor. Audited courses are not eligible for financial aid.
Grade Point Average Adjustment A student may petition for a grade point average adjustment when a course has been repeated for a higher grade. Both courses must have been taken at Mt. Hood Community College and the initial course must have been completed spring term 1985 or later. Only one adjustment per course will be processed. A course previously passed, when repeated, does not count toward graduation. For GPA adjustments processed on courses transcripted prior to SU96, both the term and cumulative GPA are adjusted. For GPA adjustments processed on courses transcripted SU96 or after, only the cumulative GPA is adjusted. Since some colleges count all grades in computing the GPA, a student should be aware that this possibility exists should the student transfer. See the Admissions, Registration and Records Office for more information.
Student Academic Standing President’s Honor Roll Students who achieve a term grade point average of 3.85 or above with a minimum of 12 credit hours will be listed on the President’s Honor Roll for that quarter.
Vice President’s Honor Roll Students who achieve a term grade point average of 3.65 to 3.84 inclusive with a minimum of 12 credit hours will be listed on the Vice President’s Honor Roll for that quarter.

Records <> CAREER-techincal ACADEMIC INFORMATION programs
The Purpose of the Standard
To assist each student with accomplishing his/her educational goal by: • Alerting the student and the college of academic difficulties or deficiencies. • Providing an opportunity for the college to be of assistance to the student in setting and achieving academic goals. • Assisting the student in utilizing the facilities and personnel of the college. • Creating an atmosphere in which the student may be successful in his/her pursuit of an education.
Academic Review and Referral At the end of each term, the college reviews the grade point average achieved by each student enrolled in 9 or more credits. If a student’s term GPA falls below 2.00, the student is notified of their academic status and referred to the Academic Advising and Transfer Center for academic assistance. The following statuses can be assigned:
Warning
Students who achieve a term GPA between 1.50 and 1.99 are placed on academic warning. Students are encouraged to meet with an academic adviser immediately to determine the steps the student can take to raise their GPA the next term. The student’s academic status will be adjusted the following term depending on their academic performance: • Academic Warning status is removed if the student earns a 2.00 GPA or higher for the term • Academic Probation status is assigned if the student does not earn a minimum of a 2.00 GPA for the term.
Probation
Students are placed on Academic Probation if: • They earn a 1.49 GPA or lower for a term - OR • They achieve a GPA of 1.99 or lower for two consecutive terms Students are strongly encouraged to meet with an academic adviser to determine the steps the student can take to raise their GPA the next term. The student’s academic status will be adjusted the following term depending on their academic performance: • Academic Probation status is removed if the student earns a 2.00 GPA for the term. • Academic Suspension for one term is assigned if the student does not earn a minimum of a 2.00 GPA for the term.
Suspension
Students are placed on Academic Suspension for one term if they earn a term GPA of 1.99 or lower while they are on Academic
www.mhcc.edu
Probation. A student will be prevented from enrolling for one term while on suspension. If there are extenuating circumstances, a suspended student can choose to appeal their suspension. Students are allowed to appeal a suspension one time.
Suspension Appeals
Students may appeal their suspension if they believe there are compelling reasons for reinstatement from suspension.
Steps to Appeal
• Obtain a “Suspension Appeal” form from the Academic Advising and Transfer Center. • Meet with an academic adviser to complete the Suspension Appeal form.
Appeal Decisions
The adviser will render one of the following decisions: Appeal Approved - The student is expected to fulfill the expectations outlined on the Suspension Appeal form and is returned to academic probation status for one term. If the student does not fulfill the expectations, they can be suspended from one term to one year. Appeal Denied - The student is suspended for one term and must complete a Re-entry plan with an adviser before they will be allowed to enroll the following term.
Records For information on the release of student records refer to pages 214-211.
Transcripts It is the student’s responsibility to arrange for correcting any errors in the MHCC transcript record within four academic terms (including summer). A MHCC transcript will be released upon written request of the student. Requests and payments for transcripts are made in the Admissions, Registration and Records Office. Please allow up to five business days for processing faxed requests. Official transcript requests paid for by check will be processed two weeks after the payment occurs. A student’s official transcript may be held for any indebtedness to the college. Advisers may obtain MHCC advising transcripts for their advisees. Students may generate a free, unofficial copy of their own unofficial transcript through MHCC’s Student On-line Services at www.mhcc.edu.
Document Replacement Fee There will be a fee charged for a request to replace or duplicate MHCC documents such as a previously awarded degree or certificate.
Records Retention MHCC adheres to the minimum records retention guidelines set forth by the State of Oregon. These records retention guidelines may be found on the Oregon State Archives web site (www. arcweb.sos.state.or.us). They are located in Division 450 of Chapter 166 in the Administrative Rules. In some cases, MHCC retains records longer than the minimum set forth by the State.
Graduation Advisers and other college staff are available to help, but students have final responsibility for satisfying degree/certificate requirements for graduation. It is strongly recommended that students utilize DARS (Degree Audit Reporting System) early and often to progress toward their degree/certificate. DARS is the same degree audit used by the College to determine whether a degree or certificate is complete. Degree audits are accurate up to the minute they are run. DARS is available on the College web site at MyMHCC. For assistance running a DARS audit, see the online demo on the curren students page (www.mhcc.edu/ pages/103.asp) or contact your adviser.
Catalog Exception Under certain circumstances, a student is allowed to deviate from a prescribed curriculum and still meet degree requirements. A student who wishes to waive a required course may petition a degree evaluator via a Recommendation for Catalog Exception Form. The form is available at www.mhcc.edu/graduation. Students are advised to discuss the proposed exception with their academic adviser. The adviser and instructional dean must approve the recommendation.

ACADEMIC INFORMATION
GRADUATION
Graduation Guidelines and Process
1.
Students earning a certificate or degree from Mt. Hood Community College must process a graduation application with the Admissions, Registration and Records (AR&R) Office. It is strongly recommended students apply two terms before their anticipated completion date (i.e., spring term graduates should apply during fall term). All students who have applied for graduation during the school year are eligible to participate in the June commencement ceremony even if coursework is not done by spring term. All students who apply will have their name printed in the commencement program (as listed in our records system) unless they apply after the third Friday of May or if they have requested their name be excluded. After the deadline, names will be published in the following year’s program. Students must contact this office to have their name published a second time if they did not complete and/or participate in the ceremony originally scheduled for. Information regarding commencement will be mailed early in spring term to students whose name will be in the program. We also post this information on the college website. Students who do not attend commencement may pick up or request a degree cover from the Admissions, Registration and Records Office.
2.
Students have the choice of following the catalog of the year they began their program or the year they are ending their program. Once enrolled in a career-technical program, if the course of study is interrupted or extended by five years or more, certificate and degree requirements for graduation may have changed. In order to then earn the certificate or degree, the student may be asked to complete current requirements or provide written approval from the program adviser to apply the original coursework toward a certificate or degree. Students may complete a program no longer offered by MHCC if, before the program was eliminated, they received an official contract from the college entitling them to completion.
3.
Students should secure their graduation application forms from the AR&R Office or on the MHCC website at www. mhcc.edu/graduation, complete the application and return it with the application fee to the cashier station in the Student Services lobby or mail to the AR&R Office.
4.
Credits from all accredited colleges or universities previously attended that are to apply toward a MHCC certificate or degree must be submitted via official transcripts and be attached to the graduation application or be on file in the AR&R Office.

You will be required to present photo identification or personal identification number (PIN) when you wish to inquire about your own academic or registration history.

Release of Grades and Course Evaluations The Student Records Policy prohibits publicly disclosing grades linked to personal identifiers, such as names, student numbers, or social security numbers. Grades may be posted by assigning another unique number. The return of graded papers or other assignments must also be accomplished in a manner that protects the identity of the student. The instructor is responsible for protecting the identity of the student.

The Student Conduct Administrator may endeavor, if appropriate, to determine if the charges can be disposed of administratively by mutual consent of the parties involved on a basis acceptable to the Student Conduct Administrator. 4. The Student Conduct Administrator shall present all charges to the accused student in written form. The letter will request that the student schedule a hearing time and date within a specific time frame, generally within a two week period of the receipt of the complaint. 5. The Student Conduct Administrator shall request witnesses and documentation from all parties involved in the complaint. These documents and witnesses will be reviewed, if at all possible, prior to the hearing. Following the hearing, the Student Conduct Administrator may request more information from any of the parties. 6. If a student fails to appear for a hearing, the Student Conduct Administrator has the option of sending the student a reminder
www.mhcc.edu
of the meeting and a request to schedule another meeting. The Student Conduct Administrator may also charge the delinquent student with another conduct violation, namely a failure to obey the request of a college administrator (see Article IV, Section 9). The Student Conduct Administrator might also decide to review and decide on the case without the student’s input and appearance. 7. Hearings shall be conducted by the Student Conduct Administrator according to guidelines outlined in the Student Code of Conduct. There shall be a single verbatim record of the proceedings. The record shall be the property of the College, but the accused student(s) or complainant(s) may purchase a copy of the record for a nominal fee, cost and procedure to be outlined in the sanction letter. 8. The complainant and the accused have the right to be assisted by an adviser they choose. Generally the complainant does not appear at the hearing. The accused may request to meet with the complainant at or before the hearing (along with his/her adviser) including the deliberation, and/or know that person or persons identity(ies); the Student Conduct Administrator can deny the accused the option of knowing the identity of the accused if there is a likelihood that there could be reprisals or danger if the identity(ies) is/are known. If the adviser is a person not employed by the College or otherwise associated with the College, this assistance will be at the student’s own expense. (Note: This process is not legal in its nature and students are to seek advisement outside of the legal system. Legal counsel is not a part of the student judicial process at the College). Students have the right to consult with the Associated Student Government president or other officers for information or interpretation of the College’s regulations and procedures. The adviser can ask clarifying questions of any parties at the hearing, and may consult with either the accused student or the complainant. If the person is an attorney, that person may not act in his/her professional capacity in that setting. Parents or guardians may be allowed to a hearing, in the case of a student under 18, who is taking College or high school classes on the campus, or in approved off campus settings. The parent may ask clarifying questions and advise their child, but the accused students must speak on his or her own behalf. In the case of students under 16, the parent may act in a more substantive capacity; the College might also ask the home school, if there is one, to be involved in the hearing. There are no special provisions for legal and special education counsel if the student is under 18 and still under Section 504 or the IDEA provisions of the disability law in the k-12 system. Special provisions do apply for students with disabilities, if a hearing for involuntary withdrawal is called. 9. The Student Conduct Administrator’s determination shall be made on the basis of whether it is more likely than not that the Accused Student violated the Conduct Code. Formal rules of process, procedure, and/or technical rules of evidence, such as are applied in criminal or civil court, are not used in Student Conduct proceedings.
<> STUDENT CAREER-techincal RIGHTS & RESPONSIBILITIES programs
10. The Student Conduct Administrator may accommodate concerns for the particular safety, well-being, and/or fear of confrontation on the part of any of the participants. 11. After the hearing, the Student Conduct Administrator shall determine whether the student has violated any section of the Student Code of Conduct. The Student Conduct Administrator may recommend disciplinary action. The student shall be notified in writing, within fourteen (14) calendar days of the determination, of the following: o The findings and conclusion made as a result of the investigation. o The discipline, if any, that is intended. o The student may accept the disciplinary action or appeal the action to the Committee on Student Conduct. The disciplinary action is in force until the appeal is completed.
Article VI: Appeals 1. A student found in violation of the Student Code of Conduct may appeal the findings or sanctions to the Committee on Student Conduct. 2. The student may request an appeal, in writing, before the Committee on Student Conduct by filing, within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of notice of guilt and sanctions from a hearing (as verified by a US Postal Service return receipt) by requesting a written request for appeal at the Office of the vice president for student success and enrollment management. The appeal should be delivered within the ten (10) day time frame as indicated above, to the Office of the President. The disciplinary action is in force until the appeal is completed. If the request is not filed within the prescribed time, it shall be deemed that the student accepts the findings and disciplinary action. 3. The following will be considered grounds for appeal: o A procedural error or irregularity which materially affected the decision. o New evidence of substantive nature not previously available at the time of the hearing that would have materially affected the decision. o Bias on the part of the Student Conduct Administrator, which materially affected the hearing. o The sanction imposed is not commensurate with the findings of fact established during the hearing process. 4. The written appeal will include: o A response to the findings and conclusions of the Student Conduct Administrator. o A response to the sanctions imposed by the Student Conduct Administrator. o A detailed rationale as to why one or more of the four grounds for an appeal (cited earlier in this section of the code) is applicable in this case.

However, the student can purchase a copy at a minimal cost, the process which will be listed in the appeal decision letter. 15. When it is impossible or not appropriate for either party to secure the attendance of a witness, any statement which is to be introduced at the hearing shall be reduced to writing, signed by the witness, and disclosed to the other party sufficiently in advance to permit such party to question the witness prior to the hearing. If the other party fails to question the witness within a reasonable time, or if the witness is questioned and a reply reduced to writing and signed by the witness, the original statement together with the reply, if any shall be admissible to the hearing. 16. After hearing the evidence, the Committee on Student Conduct will retire to executive session for deliberation. When a recommendation has been reached, the committee shall announce its recommendations in writing, giving its findings
of fact, conclusions, and recommendation. These will be forwarded to the College President. 17. A record of the hearing, findings, and recommendation of the Committee on Student Conduct shall be reviewed by the College President.

If the President is satisfied that the record is completed, he/ she may confirm, reverse, or modify the recommendation of the Committee on Student Conduct. The President will render his/her final decision within fourteen (14) days of receiving the Committee’s final (and possibly initial) recommendation. The student shall receive a letter, with delivery confirmation which shall include the appropriate charge, decision and appeal, and reason for appeal committee decision, and notice that there is not further appeal.
Article VIII: Disciplinary Sanctions In recommending or determining a sanction, the judicial officer will consider all relevant factors including the nature of the offense, the severity of any damage, injury or harm resulting from the offense, and the student’s past disciplinary record, if any. The following are sanctions, which may be imposed for a violation of this Code: 1. Warning: A notice in writing to the student that the student is violating, or has violated, College policy or regulation or the Student Code of Conduct. 2. Disciplinary Probation: A written reprimand for violation of specific regulations or the Code. Restriction of College related activities of individual students or groups of students. Probation is for a designated period of time (no longer than one calendar year) and includes the probability of more severe disciplinary sanctions if the student is found to be violating any college policy, regulation, or the Code during the probationary period. Disciplinary probation may include referral for intervention, screening, and/or treatment. Disciplinary probation may also include defining specific behaviors the student must follow to remain in attendance in class at MHCC. 3. Loss of Privileges: Denial of specified privileges for a designated period of time. 4. Restitution: Compensation for loss, damage or injury. This may take the form of appropriate service and/or monetary or material replacement. 5. Discretionary Sanctions: Work assignments; service to the college or community or other related discretionary assignments; mandated counseling or therapy; trespass from specified College premises; loss of institutional grants or scholarships. The imposition of such sanctions must be related to the nature of the violation. 6. Disciplinary Suspension: Separation of the student from the College for a definite period of time after which the student
Mt. Hood Community college Catalog • 2009 - 2010 www.mhcc.edu
ARTICLE IX: Interim SANCTIONS is eligible to return. Conditions for readmission may be specified. A suspended student is not to occupy any portion of the campus (including off-campus centers) and is denied all College privileges, including class attendance, transcript service and any consultation with College officials, except with the express permission of the Student Conduct Administrator. Suspension can be applied for up to one calendar year. A hold will be placed on the student account. 7. College Expulsion: Permanent separation of the student from Mt. Hood Community College. The expelled student is denied all further college privileges. Only the President of the College can apply the sanction of expulsion. 8. If students do not comply with any sanctions a hold will be placed on their account. They will not be able to receive any services from the College, including registration, transcript or graduation programs. The student must meet with the Student Conduct Administrator in order to have a hold removed. The Student Conduct Administrator will decide whether the student has complied with the sanctions.
Article IX: Interim Sanctions In certain circumstances, the Student Conduct Administrator or designee may impose an interim sanction prior to the hearing before the Student Conduct Administrator. 1. For alleged violations of this Code, interim sanctions, including but not limited to interim suspension, limitation of access to designed campus facilities by time and/or location, and limitation of privilege to engage in specified College activities, may be imposed by the Student Conduct Administrator. a. Such restrictions are to be utilized only when there is reason to believe that the student poses a substantial threat to harm oneself or others, damage to College property, or disrupt the stability and continuance of normal college operations and functions. b. During a period of interim suspension, a student may be denied access to the campus (including classes), and to all other College activities or events, which the student might otherwise be eligible to participate in or attend. 2. Prior to imposing an interim sanction for alleged violations of the Code, the contemplating taking action, will meet with the student. If the student cannot make the meeting, a telephone conversation or email or other delivery of the information shall be attempted. a. During the meeting, the student will be informed of his or her alleged violation(s) and of the reasons for the proposed interim sanction. b. After this information is provided, the student will be afforded an opportunity to make a statement regarding the alleged violation(s). 3. If, after hearing the student’s statement the Student Conduct Administrator will decide if implementation of an interim
www.mhcc.edu
sanction is warranted. The student will be provided with a written notice of interim sanction. An interim sanction will become effective immediately. A written notice will be attempted to be delivered to the student as expediently as possible; a copy of the letter (and possible trespass warrant) will always be sent to the student’s domicile recorded in the Student Information System. 4. Interim sanctions are temporary actions that will be enforced only until such time as a formal conduct hearing and the resulting decision-making process has been completed. The required formal hearing will be provided within a reasonable length of time, which, unless unusual circumstances are present, will be held not later than ten (10) calendar days from the date the written notice was delivered. 5. During an interim sanction, students will be provided a means of obtaining assignments, presenting assignments to instructors, completing projects and/or taking examinations without penalty. 6. Interim sanctions cannot be appealed prior to the required formal student conduct hearing. 7. Faculty members may remove a student temporarily from a class in concert with Board regulations and the respective faculty bargaining unit contracts. 8. Faculty, Department Chairs, Program Directors and Instructional Deans will work within the guidelines of respective Program handbook guidelines in the process of removing a student on a temporary or permanent basis from an academic program. Generally, the removal or temporary restriction from these programs may relate to safety, ethical/ appropriate conduct or academic or technical concerns. While not part of the Student Conduct process, the Program staff and managers should ensure that appropriate due process is given. The staff in those areas may consult with the Student Conduct Administrator for general advice, and must consult with the College Disability Coordinator if the student has a documented disability or notes one (if it not documented) at the time of a proposed action. A student can be removed from classes or a program on a temporary or permanent basis by program staff, but cannot be removed from other non-program classes at the College. If a student has allegedly committed a violation of the Student Code of Conduct that was a reason for possible removal or restriction from a program, that student may also be referred to the Student Conduct Administrator for possible adjudication.
Article X: Involuntary Withdrawal There may be times when a student should be involuntarily withdrawn from the College for issues including medical, psychiatric, or self or other injurious behavior. The process for this withdrawal will be as follows: 1. The College will engage in a thorough “threat analysis” which will include statements from staff, medical personnel
<> STUDENT CAREER-techincal RIGHTS & RESPONSIBILITIES programs
and others. The analysis will be impartially conducted by an administrator named by vice president for student success and enrollment management. The threat analysis should be completed within five (5) working days. 2. Student Development and Services staff, Disability Services and counselors, but also senior student affairs Deans and supervisors, will review the report and ascertain if certain accommodations could assist the student to be more successful in the college environment, with some changes for processes and procedures. This process should take no longer than two (2) working days. The student shall receive a written notice of the concern (sent to their domicile with delivery receipt, but also a copy delivered in person, if possible) and shall be given an opportunity to meet with the vice president for student success and enrollment management or designee in order to listen to the concern, the accommodations suggested plan and to provide additional information. A the end of the session, should the student agree to the processes and procedures, (which could include consultation with medical or other health care personnel), the vice president for student success and enrollment management or designee will send a letter to the student’s domicile with delivery confirmation (letter also delivered to the student in person if possible) outlining the required accommodations, processes and procedures to be followed in order for the student to successfully stay at the College. The student must comply with these accommodations. If the student does not, the College may begin the procedure for involuntary withdrawal. In the letter will also be an option for appeal. The student will have five (5) working days from the receipts of the letter (delivery confirmation) to file and appeal of the letter and its contents to the Vice President for Student Learning. The Vice President will review the case, get additional input if needed and make a ruling. A letter from the Vice President concerning his/her ruling will be sent to the student at their domicile (also delivered in person if possible) within five (5) working days of receipt of the appeal. There is no appeal of the Vice President’s decision. While a decision is under appeal, the student must comply with the decision made by the vice president or his/her designee. A copy of the appeal decision will be sent to the vice president. 3. If the student is unwilling to comply with the accommodations, or if there are no reasonable accommodations to be made, the vice president will convene a body to review a possible involuntary withdrawal of the student. The body will be chaired by the vice president or designee, an Instructional Administrator named by the Vice President for Student Learning, a faculty counselor, a supervisor in the Student Services area, another faculty member, and the Coordinator for Disability Services and/or Health and Wellness Coordinator, if appropriate. The student will receive notice by U.S. mail with delivery confirmation (hand delivered if possible).
Article X: Disciplinary Files and Records 1. The Office of the vice president for student success and enrollment management or designee will maintain

proceduRe for reporting harassment and/or discrimination
disciplinary records and a disciplinary tracking system, which will include, but not be limited to, the respondent’s name and related information, description of the incident, parties involved, Code violations, sanctions and other data deemed relevant for no less than five (5) years after resolved, except in cases of suspension or expulsion. Such information will be maintained in accordance with the provisions of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. Disciplinary records will be made available to the Committee on Student Conduct and College officials designated in the Code of Student Conduct. ORS:166-450-0090 (10) 2. Students may arrange to review their own disciplinary records by contacting the Office of the vice president for student success and enrollment management. Except as provided in the Student Code of Conduct and as required by law, the College will not communicate a student’s disciplinary record and related information to any person or agency without the prior written consent of the student; however, the parents or legal guardian of a student who is a minor may be notified. Disciplinary proceedings under the Student Code of Conduct will be private and confidential. 3. With the exception of cases involving suspension and expulsion, disciplinary records will be destroyed not later than five years after a student’s graduation or last recorded quarter of attendance at the College.
Procedure for Reporting Harassment and/or Discrimination Statement of institutional Commitment Mt. Hood Community College’s Right of Freedom from Harassment Policy has the goal of providing an environment that supports students so they may realize their full potential. Mt. Hood Community College values all diverse backgrounds, experiences, special abilities and characteristics students bring to the organization. Harassment is a form of unlawful discrimination, whether it is based on race, religion, age, color, sex, national origin, sexual identity, disability, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable state or federal law. Mt. Hood Community College does not tolerate unlawful harassment in any place of work, instruction, study or recreation.
Recognizing Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment is one form of sex discrimination and is defined as any unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature when: 1. Submission to such conduct is either implicitly or explicitly made a requirement of employment or participation in an academic program or activity; 2. Submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as the basis for employment or education-related decisions affecting such individual; or
222
|
3. Such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual’s work or academic performance or creating an intimidating, hostile or offensive environment. Sexual harassment may involve someone in authority but can also involve a fellow student or co-worker. Sexual harassment may include: • Telling sexual jokes, • Making unwelcome sexual advances, • Making sexual gestures, • Subjecting someone to unwanted sexual attention, • Attempting to coerce someone into a sexual relationship, • Punishing or threatening to punish someone for refusal to comply, • Implying that sexual favors may be a basis for performance evaluation or for grades in a course.
Responding to Complaints of Sexual Harassment When you feel you have been harassed it is important to remember that there are supportive people at MHCC who are resources for discussing and helping to clarify what constitutes harassment and the action steps you can take. It is important to take action. Tell someone. Not telling someone is silent acceptance of the behavior. Get help if you need it from an instructor, counselor, adviser, dean or vice president. Students may raise complaints of discrimination or sexual harassment through the vice president for student success and enrollment management. To file a complaint, students may seek assistance through the vice president. All complaints of alleged harassment or discrimination are taken seriously. Students are not required to discuss the complaint informally with the alleged perpetrator. You will be asked to describe your specific complaint and how the situation developed, and to note any action you have already taken to resolve the situation. Your complaint will be investigated whether it is received in writing or verbally. Information shared in the complaint process will be kept confidential to the greatest degree possible. Although the complaint process is confidential it may be disclosed to the person you are accusing. All complaints will be investigated and addressed in a timely manner.
Resolving Disability Discrimination Concerns Outside of the College You may file an external complaint of disability discrimination with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights, 915 Second Avenue, Room 3310, Seattle, WA 98174-1099, (206) 220- 7900 (v), (206) 220-7887 (fax) www.ed.gov/ocr/ complaintprocess.html.
No retaliation for Filing a Complaint in Good Faith No student shall be expelled, suspended, disciplined or in any other way retaliated against for having filed a complaint in good faith, about possible violations of law and/or MHCC policy whether or not the charges were sustained. Willfully false accusations of harassment are as serious a matter as unlawful harassment itself and anyone willfully filing a false complaint is subject to discipline. The vice president for student success and enrollment management shall, within 15 days after the first receipt of the complaint, cause an investigation to be made. During the vice president’s investigation she/he shall meet separately with the different parties who may, if they desire, have a representative with them. The vice president may question the instructor, staff member, student, supervisor or any person who has first-hand knowledge of the complaint and/or each party’s representative. The vice president shall, in as timely a manner as possible, specifically inform the student, instructor, and/or staff member, and as appropriate the director of human resources of the results and recommendations of the investigation.
Responding To Complaints of Discrimination or Harassment Based on Disability Mt. Hood Community College prohibits harassment or discrimination of another member of the College community on the basis of disability. If you believe that you have been discriminated against based on disability, you are encouraged to file a complaint through the vice president for student success and enrollment management at (503) 491-7316.
