Oregon Coast Community College Board of Education is committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for its employees, students and visitors by designating and maintaining each OCCC facility as tobacco-free environment.
In light of U.S. Surgeon General findings, OCCC will communicate to its employees and students that exposure to secondhand tobacco smoke and use of tobacco products are significant health hazards.
Consequently, use, distribution, or sale of all tobacco and nicotine products except those approved by the FDA for smoking cessation, in buildings or on College premises, including in parking lots or outdoor spaces, without exception, or in College-owned, rented or leased vehicles, is prohibited.
For the purpose of this policy, "tobacco" is defined to include any lighted or unlighted cigarette, cigar, pipe, bidi, clove cigarette, and any other smoking product; and smokeless or spit tobacco, also known as dip, chew, snuff or snus, in any form, vaporizing, electronic and any other form of device used for the purposes of smoking, vaporizing, dissolving, inhaling or ingesting any form of tobacco or nicotine product not approved by the FDA for smoking cessation.
The Oregon Coast Community College Catalog is published each academic year. This catalog is effective Fall 2018 through Summer 2019.
While every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the information in this catalog, Oregon Coast Community College has the right to make changes at any time without prior notice. This catalog is not a contract between Oregon Coast Community College and current or prospective students. Updates and corrections may be made from time to time to the online catalog; in the event of a discrepancy between a printed copy of the catalog and the online catalog, the Dean of Students and the Dean of Academics and Workforce will have the final authority in determining the catalog of record.
