Love like you'll never be hurt,
Sing like there's nobody listening,
And live like it's heaven on earth

#OCPromise A4: OC offers wonderful financial support through the new OC Promise program and also through other great scholarships such as #PositivelyOC!


#OCPromise A3: Community colleges not only support the community educationally, but also by connecting individuals to services and creating life-long professional and personal relationships that bolster the community at large.


#OCPromise A2: A degree gives students one more valuable tool in their kit for success and enables them to pursue their dream job and achieve their personal goals.


#OCPromise A1: We can each help to increase enrollment by being positive representatives of OC in our community, when we are going about our daily lives, and in our interactions with others.


A4: I enjoy learning about new technologies which allow me to make my courses more accessible. By striving to get better and better in this area, I can help break down learning and accessibility barriers for students. #TweetOC


A3: I was walking on campus recently and passed a student I had in class Fall I. I said hello and used the student's name. He turned around and said, "you remember my name?!" These moments help me remember how important it is to stay connected with our students. #TweetOC


A2: When I see students in the classroom who are struggling, I make a practice of reaching out to check on them and referring them to our student services. I was able to facilitate one of my students getting help through OC Cares last month. #TweetOC


A1: My office is on a main hall so I get the opportunity to help many lost students find the way to their destination. Always being friendly and looking for opportunities to be of assistance to those around me is one of the ways I practice this commitment. #TweetOC


Learning so much about OER and the new OER Bootcamp! #OER #OCLearns22

Accessibilty should not only be something we think about in relation to the classroom but across all communication channels. #communication #equity #OCLEARNS22


A4: Ask what the typical class sizes are, what the jobs are like that their graduates get in your field of study, what the culture is like, and what support they have for student success. #TweetOC


A3: Be an advocate for yourself. Research everything from which professors to take to which scholarships are available to you. Be determined in pursuing your goal at your new university! #TweetOC


A2: After I took a particularly inspiring English class, I switched my major from Business to English with the goal of teaching at a post-secondary institute. I knew that I would have to transfer to earn the necessary degrees to achieve my goal. Transfer made it possible #TweetOC


A1: I got my MA and BA from UTPB and attended OC for my basics. #TweetOC
