State regent: Many benefits to Oklahoma's Promise program By John Massey, The Oklahoman Opinion, 4/9/2017 The Oklahoma's Promise program, formerly known as the Oklahoma Higher Learning Access Program, was created by the Legislature in 1992 to encourage more students to aspire for college, prepare themselves academically in high school and ultimately, earn college degrees. Since inception, the Oklahoma's Promise scholarship has helped more than 75,000 Oklahoma students earn a college education. Recognized by many as the nation's best college access program, Oklahoma's Promise pays tuition at any Oklahoma public college or university until the student receives a bachelor's degree or for five years, whichever comes first. It also covers a portion of tuition at an accredited Oklahoma private institution. The scholarship does not cover the cost of fees, books, or room and board. To be eligible for Oklahoma's Promise, students must apply during the eighth, ninth or 10th grade, and their family's annual income must not exceed $50,000 when they apply. A student's family income also must not exceed $100,000 at the time the student goes to college. To receive the scholarship at graduation, students must achieve a minimum 2.50 GPA in 17 core courses that prepare them for college and an overall GPA of 2.50 or better for all courses in grades nine through 12. Oklahoma's Promise graduates must also be U.S. citizens or lawfully present in the United States by the time they begin college, attend class regularly, and refrain from drug and alcohol abuse and delinquent acts. Students completing the Oklahoma's Promise program continue to succeed academically, with high school GPAs, collegegoing rates and freshman college GPAs that exceed the state average and ACT scores that exceed those of comparable middleand lower-income peers. They also demonstrate above-average full-time college enrollment, persistence rates and degreecompletion rates. Additionally, Oklahoma's Promise college graduates get jobs and stay in Oklahoma at a higher rate than comparable peers. National data show that states with more college degree-holders have higher levels of per capita income. In fact, an individual with a bachelor's degree may earn as much as $1.1 million more in a lifetime than a person with just a high school diploma. Approximately 18,000 students are expected to receive the Oklahoma's Promise scholarship in college this year. Oklahoma's Promise is critical to the future economic prosperity of our state. By law, Oklahoma's Promise has a dedicated funding source to ensure that the program is fully funded each year. In the past 25 years even during severe state funding shortfalls every earned Oklahoma's Promise scholarship has been fully paid. No Oklahoma's Promise student has ever been denied the scholarship they've earned due to lack of funding. At the 25th anniversary rally during Oklahoma's Promise Day at the state Capitol on April 18, we will celebrate current Oklahoma's Promise students and the graduates who now honor the state's investment as engineers, teachers, legislators, nurses, technology specialists, law enforcement officers and countless other valuable professionals. Oklahoma's Promise has a positive impact on our workforce and economy that will

Oklahoma Tomorrow CEO addresses Claremore Collective By Shawn Hein The Daily Progress 4/8/2017 Devery Youngblood uttered some startling statistics to underline his point. The founding CEO of newly-formed Oklahoma Tomorrow, an advocacy group that promotes an increase in college graduates in the state, was the guest speaker for Claremore Collective Think Tank during Thursday's luncheon inside More Claremore. Addressing a group of community business leaders, Youngblood quoted the 16 percent cut to higher education funding, or $153 million, in Oklahoma in 2016. We're perfectly designed to get the results we're getting, said Youngblood, referring to Oklahoma ranking near the bottom nationally in education funding. The ever-growing gap in education funding has helped lead to the formation of Oklahoma Tomorrow, based out of Oklahoma City. The independent non-profit is funded by the private sector. The organization's goal is to support the creation of more college graduates to strengthen the economy and communities in the state. Youngblood noted the state currently has more than 18,000 economy-defining jobs that will go unfilled because of a lack of college graduates. Those industries include engineering, nursing, IT, financial analysts and various managerial jobs. Youngblood recalled another alarming number after recently meeting with an executive at Tinker Air Force Base, currently the largest single employer in the state. They told me right now they could hire every single engineering graduate in the state that will graduate this year and still have openings at Tinker, said Youngblood, noting the shortage in engineering graduates. Youngblood said the lack of graduates in such highly technical occupations has a domino effect on Oklahoma. Therefore those jobs go wanting and our economy does not move forward in the way it absolutely could, Youngblood said. We are not graduating enough college graduates to drive the economy of today, much less the economy of the future. Youngblood said it is up to the private sector to intervene and take a more active role in improving the future of higher education in Oklahoma. Prior to forming Oklahoma Tomorrow, Youngblood worked nine years for the Chickasaw Nation on economic and community issues. He was twice appointed to the Oklahoma City Community College Board of Regents and spent time as district director and senior advisor to U.S. Rep. Ernest Istook. Oklahoma Tomorrow, which officially formed in January, includes a 16-person board of directors, each involved in private business. Those interested in learning more about the organization should visit the website OklahomaTomorrow.org.

NOC girls basketball camp announced Applications for the NOC Lady Mavs summer girls basketball camp are now being accepted, according to Northern Oklahoma College Head Women s Basketball Coach Greg Krause. Camp dates at NOC Tonkawa are June 5-7 for girls entering Grades 1-3, June 25-29 for girls entering Grades 3-6 and July 9-13 for girls entering grades 7-12. Summer is the best time to work on individual skills and fundamentals, said Krause, who directs the camp. Basketball teaches the value of improving as an individual, as well as committing to what s best for the team. Grades 1-3 camp is a day camp from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. for commuters only. Two lowered goals will be used for teaching offensive skills. Basics such as dribbling, passing, defensive and varied offensive skills will be introduced. Grades 3-6 and Grades 7-12 camps are overnight camps, and commuters are accepted. Girls entering Grade 3 may register for either Grades 1-3 camp, Grades 3-6 camp or both, Krause noted. The training includes mass drills, station drills and team transition offense skills, such as floor balance, filling lanes, court spacing, advancing the ball and proper shot selection. Competitions in one-on-one, two-on-two and three-on-three drills, a free throw contest and league games are part of the daily schedule. Resident campers will be housed in Easterling Hall, Krause said. Two gyms are available, the main gym being air conditioned. Also, a six-lane, Olympic-size indoor swimming pool is open for the campers use, and our college cafeteria provides meals. Each camper will receive two T-shirts and a regulation size camp basketball. Campers are supervised at all times by camp staff. Advance registration is requested since enrollment is limited. After the application and deposit fee are received, an acceptance letter and detailed information will be sent to the camper. A brochure, schedule and application form can be found on the NOC website www.noc.edu/lady-mav-basketball-camp. For more information contact Krause at 580.628.6733 or greg.krause@noc.edu. Grads produce sustainable state economy By Bruce Benbrook, The Journal Record 4/10/2017 I grew up in a rural Oklahoma banking family. I learned building a successful future requires sacrifice, long-term focus, and careful attention to the bottom line. These lessons apply to our state government as well. While legislators struggle with difficult budget challenges, it is critical they take into consideration a major negative impact on Oklahoma s bottom line: We are not producing enough college graduates to fill today s jobs, much less Oklahoma s future workforce needs. Bottom line damage includes potential loss of work at Tinker Air Force Base because Oklahoma is not graduating enough engineers, information technology specialists, and other critical professions. Healthcare providers statewide are devastated by a critical nursing shortage made worse because every college and university in Oklahoma has to turn away qualified potential nurses every semester due to budget cuts. There are over 18,000 job openings in Oklahoma unable to be filled for one reason only not enough college graduates. Slashing funding to Oklahoma s colleges and universities has damaged rural areas like my hometown of Woodward. Just as we recover from the oil downturn we are hit with a slowing pipeline of graduates from schools like Northwestern Oklahoma State University, Oklahoma Panhandle State University and Northern Oklahoma College. Many graduates return to rural communities to fill our prescriptions, make our mortgages, do our taxes, and run our schools. How will we grow without a workforce educated for today s economy? Bankers look for balanced, sustainable approaches to stability and growth. But for every dollar of state budget cuts in Oklahoma in the last three years, over 53 cents of it has been taken from our higher education system. There is nothing balanced or sustainable about that. In fact, the disproportionate targeting of our ability to educate our workforce sentences another generation of Oklahomans to being ranked 49th on all the good economic and quality of life lists. Fewer graduates mean less economic growth to fund common education, healthcare, public safety, transportation and other critical functions. We are eating our seed corn; raiding our future growth to pay for the latest crisis. Who gets hurts the worst? Rural communities and struggling neighborhoods robbed of economy-growing talent, and working poor and middle- class students who neither qualify for financial aid nor inherit a trust fund. Private sector and tribal business leaders statewide formed Oklahoma Tomorrow, a nonprofit organization advocating for decisions that lead to more graduates for our economy and communities. We must commit to growing our economy for future challenges and opportunities. This issue is about students recent high school graduates and returning adults who will be Oklahoma s leaders soon. To stabilize our economy and communities, these students need state leaders to make decisions to unite Oklahomans and expand opportunities. We cannot afford to ignore the consequences of defunding higher education. Encourage your legislators to work together to make better decisions today in order to secure a better Oklahoma tomorrow. Bruce Benbrook is president and chairman of Stock Exchange Bank in Woodward and chairman of the board for Oklahoma Tomorrow.
NOC student art Out of This World It s Out of This World the annual Northern Oklahoma College student art exhibition on display through May 8 in the Eleanor Hays Art Gallery in the Kinzer Performing Arts Center at NOC Tonkawa. Art major and graduate candidate Cinthya Arenas, Ponca City, planned and organized the exhibit as part of the requirements for her Portfolio/Gallery Seminar. Under the director of Audrey Schmitz, gallery director and art instructor, Arenas gained experience in developing the infrastructure of the exhibit, including the show title and poster design, for which she created an original painting. She also prepared her own work to be exhibition-ready, prepared title cards and installed dozens of works submitted by other students, all as part of her professional growth as a working artist. Out of This World highlights Arenas creations along with works of other students enrolled in art, photography and digital imaging classes during the 2016-2017 academic year. The wide variety NOC ART GRAD - Northern Oklahoma College graduating art student Cinthya Arenas of Ponca City shows some of her work featured in Out of This World, the annual student art exhibition on view April 12-May 8 in the Eleanor Hays Art Gallery, NOC Tonkawa. She created the painting at top for her poster design for the exhibit. A reception honoring all students with work in the show is set from 6 to 7 p.m. Friday, April 21 in the art gallery. (NOC Photo by Audrey Schmitz) includes watercolor, acrylic and oil painting; sculpture; photography; pastel, pencil, charcoal and ink drawings; pottery, glass and ceramic forms; digital images; masks; bas relief tiles and mixed media works. Many items are available for purchase. A reception is scheduled from 6 to 7 p.m. Friday, April 21 in the gallery. The event is free and open to the public. Regular gallery hours are 12 to 4 p.m. Monday, Wednesday and Friday and during evening events in the KPAC. The exhibit will also be open following NOC commencement Saturday, May 6. Admission is free. Art gives me the ability to portray the world in my own way, Arenas says. My work allows others to see things through my vision. I do not limit my work to a specific style, medium or concept because I enjoy working with different materials, including oil, watercolor and clay, learning new techniques and making them my own. Furthermore, just like everything else, my knowledge, ideas and inspiration constantly change. Each of my pieces reveals my progress, and they allow the viewer to see my growth in Art and in myself. She credits the NOC Art Department with giving her the opportunity to create works of art that I never would have thought I could create. After leaving NOC, Arenas plans to study art and psychology at Oklahoma State University, preparing for a career as an art therapist. I would like to help patients with behavioral problems and/or addictions improve their emotional state and mental well-being by employing a combination of studio art and counseling to guide them into a healthy outlook on life, she says. Schmitz commented, There is a great diversity in the multitude of works on view in Out of This World, and the student show is always the most popular event in the Eleanor Hays Gallery. It s also the perfect opportunity to buy original art at great prices from talented artists early in their career. For more information about Out of This World and the many works available for purchase, contact Schmitz at 580.628.6670 or audrey.schmitz@noc.edu.
