Klamath Community College History On May 21, 1996, the voters of Klamath County overwhelmingly approved formation of the Klamath Community College Service District with a 79 percent affirmative vote. In addition, they agreed to establish a $3.5 million tax base to operate the district. On July 1, 1996, Klamath Community College joined Oregon s largest education network. There are now 17 Oregon community colleges. Initially, KCC contracted with Rogue Community College for educational services. During the first year of operation, KCC offered three oneyear certificates to students: Business Assistant, Computer Software Specialist and Criminal Justice. At the same time, KCC contracted with Oregon Institute of Technology to provide general education courses, student health services, and library services. Classes were conducted in facilities rented from the Klamath County School District and Klamath Falls City Schools. During its first year of operation, Klamath Community College provided services to approximately 3,000 students. In July 1997, KCC contracted with Portland Community College for educational services. The Klamath Community College Board of Education appointed Wesley R. Channell, Ph.D. as the College s first permanent president on August 1, 1997. In December 1997, the Oregon State Board of Education approved the Charter for Klamath Community College and in January 1998, authorized the Klamath Community College Board of Education to award degrees and certificates. In April 1998, the curriculum in KCC s first catalog was approved by the Oregon State Board of Education and Portland Community College. That same month, KCC submitted its Application for Initial Candidacy to the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges (NASC), now known as the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU), the accrediting agency for the region, and began its one-year self-study process. On November 10, 1999, Klamath Community College received initial candidacy for regional accreditation at the associate degree level. At its January 2005 meeting, the NWCCU granted initial accreditation effective September 1, 2004. Accreditation was reaffirmed in 2009. While KCC was advancing its bid for accreditation, it was also working on finding a permanent home. In September 1999, President Channell announced the purchase of 57 acres, which included two buildings that would become the first permanent home of Klamath Community College. The buildings were redesigned and renovated and on March 27, 2000, KCC students attended their first day of classes on the new campus. Additional buildings were completed in Fall 2002 to provide eight additional classrooms, computer labs, a new Learning Resources Center, food service and student study areas. In the spring of 2004, the Klamath Community College Board of Education accepted President Channell s retirement and appointed Vice President Fredrick Smith as president on May 1, 2004. Dr. Smith resigned his position on August 1, 2007. Gerald Hamilton was then appointed as Interim President on September 1, 2007 and then President on February 26, 2008. As part of its ongoing effort to meet ever-changing community needs, Klamath Community College added two new buildings in 2010 a 30,000 square foot structure that is home to classes in health and science, including a new program in Practical Nursing, and a 16,000 square foot building that is home to career technical education, including new programs in Automotive Technology, Diesel Technology and Construction Management. These buildings nearly doubled the square footage of facilities on campus and provided students with exciting new programs and state-of-the-art labs. The Klamath Community College bookstore opened Fall 2011, giving students the convenience of purchasing their textbooks and supplies on campus. In addition to the two new classroom buildings and the bookstore, KCC also saw construction of an athletic field on campus as well as a trail connecting KCC to the OC&E Woods Line State Trail. In the spring of 2012, Dr. Roberto Gutierrez was selected by the Board of Education to replace President Hamilton following his retirement. Dr. Gutierrez became KCC s fourth president in July 2012. 6 Klamath Community College - Catalog 2013-2014 - www.klamathcc.edu - 541-882-3521

Success Mentor Program The Student Leadership Program (Success Mentors) is a campus-wide endeavor to increase the involvement, academic achievement, leadership opportunities, and employment skills of all KCC students. Success Mentors are students who take an active role in recruiting new and prospective students to KCC, leading new student orientations, advanced diploma events, and other student life initiatives. For more information on how to get involved as a Success Mentor, visit the Student Life Center in Building 4. Job and Career Resources Job opportunities for on-campus, local, state, federal and positions are posted on the Job and Career Board in Building 4, next to room 411. Career workshops covering different aspects of job hunting, from resume writing to interview skills, are offered by the Student Life Center in Building 4. Student participation in institutional governance As members of the college community, students are free to express views on issues of institutional policy and matters of general interest to the student body. Students may participate in formulating and applying policies and procedures affecting academic and student affairs through student leadership, college councils and committees. Freedom of Association Students bring a variety of interests to KCC. Members of the college community may organize and join collegiate associations to promote their common interests, subject to the following considerations: 1. The membership, policies and actions of a student organization typically are determined by the vote of those individuals who hold bona fide membership in the college community. 2. As a condition of institutional recognition, student organizations are required to submit a statement of purpose, criteria for membership and operational procedures to the Vice President of Student Services. 3. Student organizations typically choose their own college advisor, though some may be assigned. Clubs recognized by the college must have an advisor who is a college employee. College staff members serve the college community when they accept the responsibility to advise student organizations and have an obligation to protect the general interests of the college. 4. Student organizations, including those affiliated with an external organization, are open to all students without respect to age, disability, national origin, race, marital status, religion, sexual orientation or gender in accordance with federal and state laws. However, specific organization criteria may limit membership options (e.g., grade point average). 5. Students and student organizations may examine and discuss questions of interest to them and express opinions publicly and privately. They may support causes by orderly means which do not disrupt college operations. At the same time, it should be made clear to the academic and larger community that in their public expressions, students or student organizations speak for themselves and not as representatives of the college or the college community. 14 Klamath Community College - Catalog 2013-2014 - www.klamathcc.edu - 541-882-3521
Academic and Student Services Courses Courses that are necessary to meet program requirements will be delivered in a timely manner. The college exercises the prerogative of choosing the courses to be offered each term. Not all courses will be offered every term. Final course offerings are contingent upon enrollment and staff availability, and are subject to change without prior notification. To avoid delays in meeting program requirements, students are encouraged to enroll in courses which meet specific program requirements as they are offered. This catalog includes the academic programs and courses which are approved for Klamath Community College by the State of Oregon. The college reserves the right to offer programs and courses based on student demand and availability of resources. Course numbers KCC uses the course numbering system found throughout the Oregon University System and other state community colleges. Course numbers 100-299 are undergraduate transferable courses (often a grade of C or better is required) or professional technical courses. Courses numbered 99 or below are developmental education courses and are not normally transferable to four year institutions. Normally, 200 level are sophomore courses which generally require collegiate reading, writing and/or math skills. Professional-technical courses are generally not designated as transfer courses. However, there are exceptions, and students should consult the advisor and academic department concerned, as well as the transfer institution for transferability of these courses. Credit Hour Load Students should enroll for an average of 15 credit hours per term of collegiate-level coursework to earn an associate degree in two years or a bachelor s degree in four years. An average of 15 credit hours involves approximately 45 clock hours of scholastic productivity each week of the term. Students who work are advised to fit their job schedule into the credit hour equation and anticipate taking more than six terms to complete a two-year educational plan. It may be difficult to carry a full-time academic load while working more than 20 hours per week. To enroll in more than 18 credits per term, students must have a cumulative minimum GPA of 2.75 and written approval from the faculty advisor or a Student Success Representative. By taking advantage of summer term classes, students can reduce the number of credit hours needed per term or the length of time required for attaining their degree. Grading System Final grades are issued at the end of each term. With linked lecture/lab courses, the letter grade is reflected in the lecture grade with the lab assigned a 0 credit. Letter grades are assigned points according to the following system: Grade Definition Points Per Credit A Superior performance 4.0 B Quality performance 3.0 C Competent performance 2.0 D Deficient performance / but passing 1.0 F Failure to meet minimum requirements 0.0 I Incomplete 0.0 P Pass - acceptable performance 0.0 NP Not passing 0.0 NA Not acceptable performance 0.0 R Repeated 0.0 W Withdrawal 0.0 AUD Audit 0.0 Grade Point Average (GPA) 1. Multiply the number of credit hours earned in a course by the number of points allowed for the grade received. 2. Add the total points for all courses. 3. Divide this total by the number of credit hours carried for the term. GPA is usually computed to two decimal places. Pass/No Pass Option P signifies a passing grade was earned ( C grade or better). Qualifying credits count toward degrees and certificates, but are not computed in the GPA. Course graded options are outlined in the course syllabus. Incomplete If a student has completed a majority of the assigned coursework at a satisfactory level of quality but some essential course requirement has not been completed (for reasons acceptable to the instructor), a report of Incomplete (I) may be given and additional time granted for completion. Students must initiate the incomplete grade contract process, except in emergency cases. The form must be filled out and signed by both the student and the instructor, but only the instructor may submit the form to Student Services. Because a substantial amount of completed coursework is required for I eligibility, a course repeat is not a legitimate make-up assignment and will not be accepted by Student Services. Klamath Community College - Catalog 2013-2014 - www.klamathcc.edu - 541-882-3521 15
Academic and Student Services Course requirements must be completed within a maximum of one term after the end of the term for which the I grade is received. Upon completion of course requirements, the instructor will assign a grade using the change of grade form. This form is to be obtained from and returned by the instructor to the Vice President for Learning Services. If the course requirements are not completed after one term, the grade becomes an F on the transcript unless the course is repeated. An I does not entitle a student to repeat a course without paying tuition. A grade of W, I, or F does not count as successful completion of a class. Klamath Community College will apply the Satisfactory Academic Progress Standards at the completion of the term after grades are posted. Grade Discrepancies Students must bring any grade discrepancy to the attention of the Vice President for Academic Affairs within 60 days after grades are posted. Veterans Services KCC s Veterans Representative provides general information on the different types of education benefits available to veterans and their eligible dependents and certifies the student s enrollment with the Veterans Administration. To apply for Veterans educational benefits go to www.gibill.va.gov. Recipients of VA benefits must maintain satisfactory academic progress toward their educational goal. Veterans must abide by VA regulations regarding notification of any change in academic program/major, change in course registration, course withdrawal, and transfer credits from other institutions. Failure to notify the Veterans Administration may result in a loss of benefits. For information regarding benefits and/or payment problems, please call the VA education line at 1-888-442-4551. Eligibility Requirements: Students may establish eligibility for full-time veterans benefits by taking 12 or more credits, three-quarter time benefits with 9 to 11 credits, or half-time benefits with 6 to 8 credits. If the student attends less than half-time, only tuition benefits are available. Students taking GED or high school equivalency courses must attend class 18 or more hours per week to be considered fulltime. If students are veterans or other military personnel, they should check with Student Services regarding procedures for acceptance of military credits. Students must provide documents verifying prior education and military service. Eligibility for benefits and monthly payments are processed by the Veterans Administration Educational Office in Muskogee, OK. After certification by the college, VA students must: 1. Maintain satisfactory academic progress. 2. Enroll only in courses that apply to their degree or certificate program. Enrollment in classes that do not apply toward degree or certificate completion will make the student liable for overpayments from the VA. 3. Complete at least the minimum hours for which they were certified. Overpayments will occur if they enroll in, but do not complete, the credits for which they were certified. 4. Inform the VA office immediately of changes in schedule, address or dependents, as it takes up to six weeks to process the changes. 5. Chapter 30 recipients must certify their college attendance monthly with the VA office (on the VA Electronic System). Students receiving veterans benefits that are enrolled at least three-quarter time (9 to 11 credits) or more may be eligible to apply for Work Study at a VA Medical Center or with the Oregon State Employment Division. The KCC Veterans Representative in located in Building 3 and can be reached at 541-880-2214. 16 Klamath Community College - Catalog 2013-2014 - www.klamathcc.edu - 541-882-3521
Academic and Student Services Military Deployment Any student with orders to report for active military duty may withdraw at any time during the term and receive a full refund on tuition and fees. If sufficient course work has been accomplished and the instructor feels justified in granting credit for the course work completed, credit may be granted and no refund will be given. In some cases an Incomplete grade may be granted according to KCC policy. The student needs to initiate the process by contacting Student Services or the Veteran s Representative and provide a copy of the official military orders. The student needs to contact Student Services to obtain the appropriate form to request a withdrawal and/or grade for each class. A copy of official military orders must accompany the documentation; otherwise, no action will be taken and the student is responsible for all grades and debt to the college. Upon return of the completed form to Student Services or the Veteran s Representative, the Registrar s Office will consult with Financial Aid and the Business office to determine whether a student will be fully dropped showing no record for the term or enter the appropriate grade (A-F, W, I) for each class and possible refund to the student. Graduation Requirements Graduation and Degree Audit Students should petition for graduation at least two terms prior to the anticipated graduation date. Prior to filing an application, students need to review a current degree audit and academic plan for completion of coursework with their Academic Advisor. This will verify whether or not the student will meet the requirements for the chosen program. They must obtain a Petition to Graduate form and return the completed form to a Student Success Representative. Students expecting to graduate after spring term should apply in January, but no later than the published date on the yearly academic calendar. Any changes in program or course substitutions must be completed with a Student Success Representative or an Academic Advisor. Students earning a degree and/or certificate must petition within one year of completing applicable course work in order to participate in commencement. Current students may conduct a degree audit via the KCC website. 1. Go to the KCC home page at www.klamathcc.edu and log into MyKCC. 2. Select Degree Audit, Student Audit Sheet. The degree audit can provide information on which classes are needed to complete a chosen degree. 3. Use in combination with the KCC class schedule (also on the Web), the college catalog and degree requirements to help plan degree completion. Commencement ceremonies are held at the end of spring term each year. Information regarding graduation ceremony activities can be obtained on the KCC website. Students interested in participating need to submit a completed RSVP form. Note: KCC reserves the right to award a certificate or degree without a Petition to Graduate being filed.

Opt Out KCC reserves the right to grant associate degrees, one-year certificates, and less than one year certificates when a student has completed necessary credits, regardless of whether the student applied to receive the degree/certificate or whether the student earned the credits for the degree at Klamath Community College or a state institution of higher education. The student will be notified in writing that he or she has received the degree or certificate and will be given the opportunity to request that the degree or certificate not be awarded. If the student has any indebtedness to the college, the diploma is withheld. Klamath Community College - Catalog 2013-2014 - www.klamathcc.edu - 541-882-3521 17

Financial Aid Federal Loans Loans are considered to be self help and require repayment. There are several different types of loan programs available to students and these include: Federal Stafford Subsidized Loan, Federal Stafford Unsubsidized Loan and Federal PLUS loan. Federal Subsidized Stafford Loan The Subsidized Stafford Loan is a fixed interest loan awarded on financial need. If a student qualifies, the federal government will pay the interest on the loan under these circumstances: while in school or during any period of authorized deferment. The interest rate for 2013-2014 is fixed at 6.8 percent. New borrowers can only receive subsidy on their subsidized loans for 150% of the published length of their declared program.

Direct Loan - Federal Unsubsidized Stafford Loan The Unsubsidized Stafford Loan is not based on financial need. Interest begins to accrue as soon as the loan is disbursed. The federal government does not pay the interest on this type of loan. Students may pay the interest while in school, or the interest can be capitalized and included in the repayment amount. To set up interest payments, please contact the servicer. The interest rate for 2013-2014 is fixed at 6.8 percent.

Federal PLUS Loan PLUS loans are loans taken out by parents, stepparents or legal guardians of dependent undergraduates to assist them with educational expenses. Eligibility Requirements: Financial need is not a requirement to qualify for this loan, however, this loan is based on the borrower s credit history. Each applicant is subject to a credit check. Available Amounts: The Federal PLUS loan may not exceed the annual cost of education at KCC, less any financial aid awarded to the student. The interest rate for 2013-2014 is fixed at 7.9 percent. The parent/stepparent/guardian is responsible for the repayment of the loan including the interest that accrues on the loan during any period. Other Information: These loans may require repayment to begin before the student has graduated. Specific repayment information should be obtained from the lender. Interest begins to accrue as soon as the loan is disbursed. Federal Work-Study Work-Study is considered self help aid in the form of parttime employment as a means of financial assistance. Work-Study provides part-time employment, at both on campus and approved off-campus sites, for students who meet eligibility requirements. Students may work up to 20 hours per week during the academic year to earn the amount listed on their award notification. Eligibility Requirements Students must demonstrate financial need.

Financial Aid Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress To receive Federal Financial Aid at KCC, a student must meet the Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress. Failure to meet any of the standard requirements will result in warning or disqualification from receiving Federal Financial Aid or warning, probation or academic suspensions from attending KCC. 1. Klamath Community College, in compliance with Federal Regulation 668.34, requires students maintain satisfactory academic progress to continue eligibility to enroll in classes and receive Federal Financial Aid (grants and loans). Satisfactory Academic Progress means maintaining a minimum term GPA of 2.00 and a 66.67% or higher completion rate. The completion rate is based on the number of credits that the student is enrolled in as of the published add/drop deadline. A grade of W, I or F does not count as successful completion of a class.

The US Department of Education and KCC have defined the following terms associated with Satisfactory Academic Progress: Academic and Financial Aid Warning The status assigned to a student the first term the student fails to make Satisfactory Academic Progress. The student is eligible to enroll in classes and receive Federal Financial Aid unless the student received all F s or W s where a Financial Aid appeal will be required. The student must meet the Satisfactory Academic Standards for this term to continue financial aid eligibility. No appeal is necessary. Financial Aid Disqualification The status assigned to a student who has failed to make the Standards of Satisfactory Progress more than one term. The student is not eligible to receive Federal Financial Aid unless an appeal is filed according to the school s guidelines and the appeal is granted. If the appeal is granted, the student status changes to Financial Aid Probation. Academic and Financial Aid Appeal The process a student completes who has not met the Satisfactory Academic Progress Standards by petitioning for reconsideration of eligibility of Federal Financial Aid and/or eligibility to enroll in classes. The appeal must include why the student failed to meet the standards, the resolution of the issue and the student s plan for success. Academic and Financial Aid Probation The status assigned by the school to a student who fails to meet Satisfactory Academic Progress for a second term and has had eligibility for financial aid reinstated through the appeal process. Klamath Community College can enforce enrollment restrictions (i.e. half-time enrollment, submission of an academic plan, etc.) if it appears these restrictions will aid in the student s success. A student on probation may receive aid and must meet the Satisfactory Academic Standards to continue to be eligible to enroll in classes and receive Federal Financial Aid. Academic Suspension The status assigned by the school to a student who fails to meet Satisfactory Academic Progress for a third term. The student is not eligible to enroll in classes unless an appeal is filed according to the school s guidelines and the appeal is granted. The student is not eligible to receive Federal Financial Aid. Degree seeking students will be placed on suspension after completing 36 credits if their cumulative GPA is below 1.75. 3. Federal Financial Aid eligibility is limited to 150% of a program s credit length (135 credits for a 90-credit two-year degree and 68 credits for a 45-credit one-year certificate.) Credits transferred from other colleges that are accepted at KCC toward your program of study and credits attempted using your own resources are included in the calculation of the maximum credit length. When it becomes apparent that a student cannot graduate within this period, the student becomes ineligible for Federal Financial Aid. If this occurs, the Financial Aid Office will notify the student in writing. 4. Enrollment for Financial Aid purposes will be set based on enrollment as of 5:00 pm on the last day to add or drop classes for a term. For a course to be counted toward Financial Aid enrollment it must count toward the two-year degree or oneyear certificate the student is pursuing. Elective credits above what is required to receive the two-year degree or one-year certificate will not be eligible to be included for Financial Aid enrollment. 24 Klamath Community College - Catalog 2013-2014 - www.klamathcc.edu - 541-882-3521
Financial Aid 5. Developmental courses (courses under 100 level) are eligible for Federal Financial Aid up to 45 attempted credits. No additional developmental courses will be funded after 45 credits have been attempted. 6. Only developmental courses and courses that apply to a degree or certificate are eligible for Federal Financial Aid. Courses that are not eligible for Federal Financial Aid include Adult Basic Education, GED, High School Completion, Extended Studies courses, challenge courses, one-credit workshops and special topic courses that exceed the degree requirements per the KCC catalog. Students cannot receive Federal Financial Aid while enrolled in high school or a GED program. 7. Repeated coursework may be eligible to be counted toward a student s enrollment for financial aid under the following condition: A previously completed course may be included one time to receive a higher grade or complete the course; however, both attempts will be counted as attempted credits toward the program credit limit. 8. Programs less than 45 credits or one academic year (i.e. Career Pathways) are not eligible for federal financial aid. Klamath Community College is not responsible for any actions taken by a student in anticipation of receiving Federal Financial Aid. Students are advised to verify their Financial Aid status and eligibility each term. Failure to meet eligibility standards will at least result in the following action: Financial Aid Academic Action 1st Term: Warning Warning Letter sent indicating warning status. Financial aid may be delayed. Must complete an individualized success plan with advisor or student services. A separate letter will be sent if repayment of financial aid is required. If a zero GPA is obtained and financial aid was disbursed, money will be owed to the institution.

Financial Aid to the student the actions necessary to regain eligibility for financial aid and/or enrollment. If a student feels that their appeal included all required elements (What Occurred, Resolution, Plan for Success and Documentation) and the Appeals Committee did not apply the Federal Regulations appropriately, the student can request the Vice President of Student Services review the outcome of the appeal. NOTE: Students who have a 0.00 GPA or who withdraw from all courses in a term may be required to return a portion of the Federal Financial Aid funds that they received. Students with an outstanding debt to the college will not be allowed to register for subsequent terms, remain enrolled in classes, or receive official transcripts until the debt has been paid in full. Refund/Repayment Policy If you withdraw or stop attending classes, you may be subject to repayment of financial aid funds per the following policy: If a student withdraws from all classes or earns a 0.00 GPA for the term, the Financial Aid Office will recalculate the account to determine if the student must repay a portion of the financial aid received. If repayment is required, the student will receive notification from the Business Office. Because the student has failed to meet the Standards of Satisfactory Academic Progress, the student will either be placed in warning or disqualified from receiving additional financial aid. If the student is disqualified a completed Financial Aid Eligibility Appeal form must be submitted for the Appeals Committee to consider, however, the appeal will not be heard until the debt to the institution has been paid in full. The student s account will be charged with any portion of unearned aid that the school is responsible for returning to the U.S. Department of Education. This charge will result in both a Financial Hold and Transcript Hold being placed on the student s account. If the student has received a Stafford Subsidized or Unsubsidized Loan, the student is responsible for paying back any unearned amount of the loan funds that they received under the terms of the loan. Students will have up to 45 calendar days to make acceptable financial arrangements for repaying the over award or the account will be sent to collections. In accordance with Board Policy 720.0110, a student must meet all financial obligations to the college in order to qualify for continued enrollment. 26 Klamath Community College - Catalog 2013-2014 - www.klamathcc.edu - 541-882-3521

Policies and procedures Policies and Procedures This section addresses general policies and procedures of the college. For a more in-depth discussion of specific policies or procedures, please consult the student handbook or contact the Vice President of Student Services. Attendance Students are expected to be in attendance at all times in classes and laboratories. If a student is absent it is his/her responsibility to find out what was missed. Federal Financial Aid, the Veterans Administration (VA), and other financial providers require the college to monitor and report attendance. It is the responsibility of the student to obtain and meet attendance requirements. In cases of late enrollment, students may have to contact the instructor directly for this information. Only students who have officially registered and enrolled may attend classes. Dependents or other guests are not allowed in the classroom with students. If a student is on a waiting list, he or she may attend the wait-listed class during the first week of the term. Starting the second week of the term, the student s name must appear as enrolled on the class roster. If the student is not officially registered for the class by this time, he or she may no longer attend. Auditing a Class If you wish to participate in a course but do not wish to receive credit or a grade, you may register for the course under the audit option. Tuition and fees are the same as registration for a grade and credit. Federal Financial Aid does not pay for auditing a course. An audit carries no credit and does not meet degree requirements or contribute to full-time student status. Students wishing to change from credit to audit, or audit to credit, must do so by the add/drop deadline. To apply for credit for audited courses, students must repeat the course as a regular registered class member or follow the challenge procedure. For more information, contact the Registrar s office. Student Rights and Responsibilities Students, staff, and administration have developed rules to guide student behavior. It is the student s responsibility to understand and abide by these regulations. Student rights and responsibilities guidelines are meant to enhance KCC as an educational institution. The college has certain obligations in the governance of student discipline and conduct. Policies governing student rights and responsibilities are covered in detail in the student handbook. These include student rights, freedoms, and responsibilities policy which: Identifies fundamental provisions for students freedom to learn. Identifies student conduct guidelines. Clarifies college expectations for student responsibility. Harassment All forms of harassment are prohibited. Sexual harassment is defined consistent with the guidelines of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. For more specific information on KCC s harassment policies, please consult the student handbook. Award of Completion Although Community Education courses carry no credit, Awards of Completion are available upon request and by recommendation of the instructor, through the Community and Workforce Education Department. Transcripts Unofficial transcripts are available on the KCC Web page (www. klamathcc.edu). Official transcripts may not be ordered by phone. A maximum of five transcripts may be ordered at a time. Allow 5-7 business days to process. To order a transcript by mail, send a signed letter with the student s name at the time of attendance, and the address to where records should be sent. Mail requests to: Student Services Klamath Community College 7390 South 6th Street Klamath Falls, OR 97603 Student Educational Records Student records are maintained for the benefit of students. KCC must keep records in order to effectively advise and counsel students. Records are brought up when promoting instruction, guidance, and educational progress. 30 Klamath Community College - Catalog 2013-2014 - www.klamathcc.edu - 541-882-3521
Policies and procedures Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) provides for the protection of student records. Consistent with FERPA, KCC has identified information which is considered part of a student s educational record. Specific policies are established which govern the conditions for its disclosure and provide security practices which control access to such records. Students have the right to inspect their educational records while attending KCC. If a student believes the contents are inaccurate, misleading, or in violation of privacy or other rights, they have the right to a hearing to challenge the contents. The college will normally comply with the request to inspect a student s records within ten days, but in no case more than 45 days from the request. In accordance with FERPA, KCC considers the following to be directory information. This information may be released upon request, unless a student files a directory information withholding request form in Student Services. Student s First and Last Name Current Mailing Address E-mail Address Telephone Number Major Field of Study Dates of Attendance Certificate(s), Degree(s), and Award(s) Received Most Recent Previous Educational Institution Attended Current Grade Level Enrollment Status Participation in Officially Recognized Activities If a student files a directory information withholding request form, the student will not be listed on honor rolls and other similar college announcements. The student may be prevented from participating in Web registration or other activities where the college cannot reasonably assure privacy. The request to withhold information must be renewed each term of attendance to remain in effect. Use of Student Social Security Number OAR 589-004 -0400 authorizes KCC to ask students to provide their social security number. The number will be used by the college for reporting, research, and record keeping. A student s number will also be provided by the college to the Oregon Community College Unified Reporting System (OCCURS). OCCURS is made up of community colleges in Oregon, the State Department of Community Colleges and Workforce Development, and the Oregon Community College Association. OCCURS gathers information about students and programs to meet state and federal reporting requirements. It also helps colleges to plan, research, and develop programs to support the progress of students and their success in the workplace and other educational programs. OCCURS, or the college offices, may provide a student s social security number to the following agencies, or match it with records from the following systems: State and private universities, colleges, and vocational schools, to find out how many community college students continue their education and whether or not community college courses are a good basis for further education. The Oregon Employment Department, which gathers information (including employment and earnings) to help state and local agencies plan education and training services for the best job placement available. The Oregon Department of Education, to provide reports to local, state, and federal governments. The information is used to learn about education, training, and job market trends for planning, research, and program improvement. The Oregon Department of Revenue and collection agencies, only for purposes of processing debts, and only if credit is extended to a student by the college. The American College Testing Service, if a student takes the COMPASS Placement test, for educational research purposes. The U.S. Department of Revenue for tax purposes. State and federal law protects the privacy of student records. Social security numbers will be used only for the purposes listed above. A student has the right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the college to comply with the requirements. The name and address of the office that administers FERPA is: Family Policy Compliance Officer U.S. Department of Education 400 Maryland Ave., SW Washington, DC 20202-5901 Klamath Community College - Catalog 2013-2014 - www.klamathcc.edu - 541-882-3521 31
Policies and procedures Challenging a Course KCC maintains a course challenge procedure, recognizing that alternative avenues exist other than the classroom for acquiring knowledge. Students wishing to challenge a course must have completed a minimum of 12 credits at KCC prior to the challenge. If adequate justification exists, students may challenge courses using the following procedures: 1. Consult the appropriate instructor. 2. Obtain the appropriate instructor s signature and the department chair s signature. 3. Present the completed challenge form to Student Services during the add/drop period for the term and pay the $10 per course, non-refundable challenge fee plus any other fees associated with the examination. 4. Complete the challenge examination within the term in which the course is offered, at a time that is mutually agreed upon with the instructor. Students successfully passing the challenge exam must register for the class and pay the appropriate tuition. Note: Students may not challenge a course a second time. Challenged courses are not financial aid eligible and are not considered part of the residency requirements for degrees, diplomas, or certificates nor are they considered in determining full-time status or eligibility for student benefits. After successfully passing the challenge exam and paying the appropriate tuition, registration for the class can be completed. The instructor will record the grade (A, B, C or P) on the regular end-of-term grade sheet. Failure to pass the exam will result in no grade being recorded. A course may not be challenged a second time. A course may not be challenged in which a grade has been received, nor may a lower level course be challenged. For example, WRI 095 may not be challenged after completion of WRI 121. Furthermore, some courses may not be challenged for any reason. A list of these courses is available at Student Services. Alternative challenge procedures exist for current high school students and are identified in the Academic Policy Handbook, located in the LRC. Repeating a Course Before repeating a course, a student should consult with his/ her academic advisor. Courses may be repeated once with the intention of getting a better grade. Grades not affecting GPA (W, NP, P, I or AU) are not recognized as repeats. If a course is repeated, the first repeat attempt will replace the prior grade and be included in the GPA. A grade may be replaced only one time; however, a course may be repeated more than once. All attempts of repeated courses will be recorded on the official transcript and all grades earned after the initial repeat will be used in calculating GPA. Repeated courses count as attempted credits for Federal Financial Aid and can affect future financial aid eligibility. Financial aid will pay for two attempts at any course up to the maximum credits allowed for the degree or certificate. A student may use the second attempt to improve the grade received on the first attempt. Financial aid will not pay for a course more than twice. Contact Student Services if you have any questions. If you are receiving veteran educational benefits, repeating a course could have an effect on your benefits. Please contact the Veterans Certifying Official before repeating a course. Withdrawing from a Course When students register for classes they are expected to be in attendance. If they discontinue attending without filing an official withdrawal form, they will receive a failing grade or a grade which represents the course accomplishments. To withdraw from a course, students must complete an official withdrawal form and file it with a Student Success Representative by the withdraw date published in the term calendar. Generally, withdrawals are processed in person. Withdrawals are reflected on official transcripts; therefore, adherence to correct procedures will help protect academic records. To ensure an official withdrawal from a class, contact Student Services for verification. To receive a refund, students must initiate the withdrawal procedure during the first week of the term, except for classes fewer than ten weeks in length. Instructor-Initiated Student Drop If a student has not attended class and has not contacted the instructor during the first week of the term, the instructor may drop the student from class. This will occur on or before Friday of the first week of class. Appeals to the drop policy must be directed to Student Services. For more information on the appeals process, see the Student Handbook or contact Student Services. 32 Klamath Community College - Catalog 2013-2014 - www.klamathcc.edu - 541-882-3521

Oregon Transfer Module (OTM) Oregon Transfer Module (OTM) The Oregon Transfer Module (OTM) provides a one-year curriculum for students who plan to transfer to an Oregon community college or university. The module allows students to complete one year of general education foundation course work that is academically sound and will meet the admission standards of the receiving school. Students should work closely with an academic advisor to ensure selection of appropriate course work. OTM 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. Upon transfer, students may be required to complete additional course work in general education, or an academic major, that is specific to the receiving institution. Students who transfer prior to the completion of the OTM will have their courses individually evaluated by the receiving institution. The OTM includes course work to complete the equivalent of three academic terms. The course work must be chosen from the courses approved for the categories listed. There are no substitutions. All courses must be passed with a grade of C or better. Students must have a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.0 at the time the module is posted. Note: The OTM is undergoing a continuing improvement process with the Joint Boards Advisory Council (JBAC) and changes may occur.

Accounting Income Tax Preparation Career Pathway Certificate Less-Than-One-Year Certificate of Completion The Income Tax Career Pathway Certificate (15 credits) was created to give students the basic knowledge needed to succeed in any apprenticeship-level job for preparing personal income taxes. This less-than-one-year certificate gives the student basic bookkeeping knowledge, payroll knowledge, and the required 80 hour basic tax course to sit for the tax preparer exam. Per Oregon s Board of Tax Practitioners Web site, any person preparing personal income tax returns for a fee or representing that they do so must be licensed by the Oregon State Board of Tax Practitioners. That person must be at least 18 years of age and have either a high school diploma or GED. Core Outcome: Program objectives for this certificate are intended to prepare students to successfully pass the state required exam for licensure and prepare the students for successful employment in the field of taxation. The State of Oregon sets competency and ethical standards for tax professionals and regulates them through the Board of Tax Practitioners. The purpose of the law is to protect the consumer from unlicensed or unethical practitioners. Oregon s Board of Tax Practitioners mandates that to apply for the tax preparer s exam, you must first take and satisfactorily pass an approved 80 hour basic tax course. These courses may be taken through community colleges (there are usually two 4-credit hour courses given at the colleges, and each credit hour is worth 10 hours) (http://www.oregon.gov/obtp).
