Starting college is a little like visiting another country for the first time! There are new customs to learn, rules to observe, and vocabulary to become familiar with. Here are some college terms you should know.
Academic Advisor — A member of the faculty who will help a student plan his or her program of study each semester.
Academic Calendar — A list of various dates of academic importance, including the opening and closing of classes, holidays, and vacations.
Academic Standing — A student's academic status. To be considered in "good" academic standing, a student must maintain a minimum grade-point average that increases with the number of credits completed. A student whose average falls below the minimum will be required to reduce his or her schedule (i.e. take fewer courses each semester) until that minimum is reached.
Associate's Degree -- A degree offered by Nassau Community College. Nassau offers the Associate in Arts (A.A.) degree; the Associate in Science (A.S.) degree; and the Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree. Each degree requires students to successfully complete a prescribed course of study.
Attribute -- A term referring to the specific requirement (e.g. Communication Arts, Fine and Performing Arts, Western Heritage) that a course fulfills.
Catalog (or Bulletin) — The official publication of the College. It lists the faculty, programs, course descriptions, college regulations, and requirements for graduation. The catalog can be viewed on the College's homepage (www.ncc.edu).
Certificate -- A course of study intended to educate students in a specific career area. Certificate programs are approximately thirty credits.
Common Reading -- A book that is read in many classes at NCC and that serves as the basis for campus programs and discussions.
Corequisite — A course that must be taken at the same time (in the same semester) as another course.
Credit — A unit of study that is the equivalent of fifteen hours of classroom attendance. To earn an associate's degree at Nassau Community College, students must successfully complete a minimum of 64 credits. Students should speak with their advisor to determine the exact number of credits they need for their curriculum.
CRN -- A five-digit number that identifies a specific section of a course in the MyNCC registration system. Every course has a specific CRN.
Curriculum — An approved program of study leading to an associate's degree.
Dean's Honor List — An honor conferred upon students in recognition of outstanding scholastic achievement. To qualify a student must have completed a minimum of twelve credits per semester and attained a 3.5 or higher semester average with no grades of withdrawal (W or UW), failure (F), unsatisfactory (U), or incomplete (INC). Part-time students are also eligible for the Dean's Honor List.
Distance Education - A teaching/learning experience in which the instructor and students are separated by physical distance and use a wide variety of media to communicate. Course content and instruction are delivered through the web using the learning management system Blackboard Learn 9.
Degree Requirements — The courses and grade-point average required for graduation from the College.
Drop/Add Period — A time (usually the first week of the semester) when students may make changes in their schedules.
Elective — A course that a student chooses to take in fulfillment of his or her degree requirements. Almost every curriculum has some electives.
First-Year Experience Program -- A series of programs and projects aimed at helping new students feel welcome and comfortable at the College. The First-Year Experience program (FYE for short) includes a common reading, a book that is read in many classes and that serves as the basis for discussions throughout the school year; a campus-wide Day of Service, a daylong series of campus and community service projects involving students, faculty, and administration in charitable and fund-raising activities; a series of workshops, known as "Conversations About College," devoted to important college issues and topics; a peer mentoring program; and a friendly and informative blog, "What's Up, NCC?" (www.whatsupncc.blogspot.com), providing practical advice about college success. The goal of FYE is foster a sense of community on campus and to help all students feel a part of life at NCC.
Full-Time Student — A student who is enrolled for at least twelve credits (or the equivalent number of noncredit courses) a semester.
Grade Grievance Procedure — The process by which a student may appeal a final grade that he or she has received in a course.
Grade-Point Average (GPA) — A student's academic average.
Hold -- A "freeze" imposed on the records of students who are in arrears to the College or who have failed to comply with a College policy or regulation.
Honors — A program of enriched classes in humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, and other subjects. Honors classes are open to incoming freshmen who ranked in the top 20 percent of their high school class as well as currently enrolled students who have excelled academically at the College.
Humanities — A term that refers to courses offered by the following academic departments: Art, Communications, English, Foreign Languages, Library, Music, Philosophy, Reading/Basic Education, and Theatre/Dance.

How a Nice Playwright Like Me Starting Plotting Murder
I am often asked to speak to early career playwrights who, this day and age, accept as fact that they will have to write for TV or film in order to make a living. It's not even sad but definitely true.The year that my play Stop Kiss premiered at The Public Theater, extending three times, making it the longest-running straight play produced at the theater since A Chorus Line – I made less money than I do in one month as a writer/producer for series television. And when the play finally closed –my income stream ended. I had been working as a freelance copywriter prior to the play's opening. The day the reviews for Stop Kiss came out, prompting my phone to clatter off the hook with friends telling me "You're the toast of the town!" (not to date myself but my phone looked like this), I was hurriedly writing the last of the Star Trek trivia questions that were due for the SyFy Channel website – a job that I had fallen behind on during rehearsals. Wanting to take advantage of the steam misting off of Stop Kiss' successful run, I went to L.A. for a week and packed in as many meet and greets with studio and network execs as I could. These kinds of meetings can feel pointless at the time, the writer's equivalent of kissing hands and shaking babies, but you never know what they will eventually lead to. For me, it was an offer to work on the recently picked-up series "The West Wing". My husband and I sublet our one-bedroom East Village walk-up and rented a small house in West Hollywood so I could see what it was like to be part of a writing staff. It was, shall we say, a unique experience, not only for me as a neophyte TV writer but for the more seasoned writers on staff, many of whom were playwrights too.
At the end of "The West Wing"'s first season, I decided to return to the East Village. To best convey my rationale, I offer this analogy from real life – that year in L.A. my husband and I attempted to get pregnant, but to no avail. The minute we returned to New York City, our first son was conceived. For the first two years of my son's life, we continued to live in that one-bedroom walk-up while I wrote two pilots for CBS and adapted Stop Kiss into a screenplay.
One day, when I was on the 1 train headed for the theater, I ran into Warren Leight, the Tony Award-winning playwright of Sideman. Warren was a friend of Eric Bogosian, who was married to Jo Bonney, the director of Stop Kiss. We'd met at a dinner party. Warren told me that he had taken his first series TV job, and was writing for the latest "Law & Order" spinoff, "Criminal Intent" and that they might be hiring a new writer. Maybe I'd be interested? I said "Sure," thinking that a cop show was about as far out of my range of abilities as platform diving. But a couple weeks later, I got a call from Warren that he'd given Stop Kiss to showrunner Rene Balcer to read, and that Rene wanted to meet me. My agent sent me a stack of scripts to read. I read a dozen of them within a couple days.
There was something powerfully addictive about these stories, as viewers of CI and all the shows in the L&O franchise well know. But even more than the mothership and SVU, I found that the CI scripts stayed so far ahead of you, misdirecting you with such sharpness and outrunning you with such agility, that I couldn't wait to turn the page. Suspense was not my strong suit and I wondered how I could ever write for this show. But my meeting with Rene went well and weeks later I was offered the job. I was going to be able to live in the city of my choice while working on a broadcast network TV series with a foreseeable future. I would later realize I had no idea how good I had it.
Diana Son is the author of the plays Stop Kiss, Satellites, BOY, R.A.W. ('Cause I'm a Woman) and others. She has also been a writer/producer for TV series including "Blue Bloods," "Southland," "Law & Order: Criminal Intent," and "The West Wing" in addition to writing pilots and the occasional feature film. She lives in Brooklyn with her husband and 3 sons.

Here There are Tigers: The Secret Air War in Laos, 1968-69
Stackpole books, 2008 - History - 228 pages
At the height of the Vietnam War, in 1968 and 1969, Reginald Hathorn (call sign NAIL 31) flew 229 combat missions as a forward air controller for the U.S. Air Force. He inserted Special Forces teams into North Vietnam and Laos, completed missions for the CIA, and flew missions with the Lao Army. Most of the time, he flew into Laos and called in airstrikes against targets inside that country--in a war which did not officially exist, about which the world knew nothing, and which the U.S. government denied.

Idaho tied atop leaderboard
Vandals share lead with Fresno State at WAC Championship
HENDERSON, Nev. -- Idaho freshman Sean McMullen came within one stroke of the Rio Secco Golf Club course record when he opened Western Athletic Conference tournament play with a seven-under 65 to take a three-stroke lead into Tuesday's second of three rounds.
McMullen's score -- one off Tiger Woods' course record -- helped the Vandals into a tie for first along with Fresno State. Both are at one-under 287 at the par-72, 7,313-yard desert layout. San Jose State is three strokes back at two-over 290 followed by New Mexico State (293), Utah State (294), Nevada (301), Hawai`i (304) and Louisiana Tech (304).
Vandal senior Jarred Bossio joins McMullen in the top five with a tie for fourth at two-under 70. Senior Justin Kadin is tied for 20th at three-over 75 with senior Stefan Richardson tied for 25th (77) and senior Gordon Webb tied for 34th (81).
McMullen opened his phenomenal round with a birdie followed by pars on the next four holes. He then had a run of three successive birdies before a par on the ninth hole put him at four-under 32 at the turn. His only bobble of the day was a bogey at the 478-yard, par-4 11th but he came back with another run of three successive birdies to drop to six under. He notched his eighth birdie of the round on the 516-yard, par-5 17 and then parred the final hole for his 65.
Bossio made the turn at even-par 36 after two birdies and two bogeys on the front nine. He dropped to one-under with a birdie on the 329-yard, par-4 13th and wrapped up his first round with a birdie on the 634-yard, par-5 18th.

NCAA History
Last Year Invited: 2004, first round loss to DePaul
Streak: 1
Best NCAA Finish: 1967, NCAA runner-up
Historical Performance vs. Seed (1985-present): n/a

School's Claim to Fame: Former SportsCenter anchor Dan Patrick went to UD and regularly name-checks the Flyers on his radio show.
School Wishes It Could Forget: The Jim O'Brien years. How that man continues to fail upwards is beyond me.
Prediction: I think the Flyers match up well against West Virginia. They're more talented, but in many ways a mirror image of the Flyers. I refuse to predict a loss in the first round, so I'm going with an upset over West Virginia and bowing out honorably to Kansas on Sunday.

I'm excited. August is nearly over and spring is officially starting at the end of this week. We've had a taste of warmer weather in Sydney and the plants in my garden are starting to wake from their winter slumber.
The National Year of Reading theme for September is GROW, so in honour of that and the approaching season, I'm sharing my fave gardening books with you.They are all written by Australians.
Shirley Stackhouse's My Gardening Year is a classic. I have the old edition, but this is the cover of the updated edition, with two of my favourite flowers on the cover. Love aqueligias and nigellas! The book is arranged month-by-month, with lists of what to plant and what is in flower or fruit, as well as suggestions for tasks to be carried out in each month. Invaluable.
The Ross family is my fave gardening family. Such a wealth of information that has been passed on! I used to love watching husband and wife Sandra and Graham Ross when they had a TV gardening show. Their daughter Linda has joined them in the garden writing field. From the Ground Up is a wonderful local guide - the subtitle says it all.
Meredith Kirton is another wonderful garden writer. Her Harvest: a complete guide to the edible garden is a thorough guide to starting and maintaining a vegetable gardening. Meredith's other books, Dig, An Hour in the Garden and Plot are equally useful and enjoyable.
Totally drool-worthy is Kitchen Gardens of Australia by Kate Herd. This is a book that shows how gorgeous vegetable, fruit and herb gardens can be. I lost myself in this one for days! Photography has captured these gardens at their very best.
Now, this book is for dreaming. Graham, Sandra and Linda Ross are back again to show us some of the most inspirational gardens they have seen. If you love the way a beautifully-designed and maintained garden can soothe, this is the book for you.
I've read many other great gardening books and probably don't know about many more. Tell me about the ones you love so we can all GROW together!

Latinos helped deliver President Barack Obama's re-election Tuesday with near-historic support. In return, they're demanding an immigration overhaul and are warning both parties, particularly Republicans, that it's time to get on board and pay closer attention to their issues.
Latinos accounted for 10 percent of those who voted Tuesday. They backed Obama with 71 percent of their vote nationally, compared with Mitt Romney's 27 percent, according to exit polls. It was the highest level of Latino support since President Bill Clinton received 72 percent of their vote in 1996.
Obama arguably won the election in part because of Latino support in the swing states of Colorado, where he carried 75 percent of Latino votes, and Nevada, where he received 70 percent.
"Latino voters confirmed unequivocally that the road to the White House goes through Hispanic neighborhoods," said Clarissa Martinez, the director of civic engagement and immigration at the National Council of La Raza, a Hispanic advocacy organization.
Activists such as Martinez think the election is such a game-changer for Latino issues that Republicans have no choice but to return to the negotiating table and confront the immigration problem.
Latinos are the country's fastest-growing minority bloc. Seventeen percent of eligible Latino voters live in battleground states. Nearly 900,000 eligible Latino voters turn 18 each year.
Knowing those numbers, and even before Obama was named the victor Tuesday night, Republican strategists were calling for a new approach.
"I said this in the spring. In the summer. Biggest mistake was going hard right on immigration. Paying price," John Weaver, a Republican strategist who worked on the presidential campaigns of Sen. John McCain and former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman, tweeted about Mitt Romney.
Attention has turned toward rising Republican star Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, who could serve as the catalyst to bring the sides together. The son of Cuban immigrants, Rubio said earlier this year that he was working on a compromise on the DREAM Act for young undocumented immigrants brought here illegally by their parents.
On Wednesday, he said "Republicans need to work harder than ever" on immigration issues.
Romney seemed to telegraph his predicament last spring. In the same fundraising-dinner video now infamous for his "47 percent" statement, he says trying to attract Hispanic voters is the party's greatest challenge.
"If the Hispanic voting bloc becomes as committed to the Democrats as the African-American voting bloc has in the past, well, we're in trouble as a party and, I think, as a nation," he says in the secretly recorded video.
Yet during the primaries Romney called for a "self-deportation" program and picked one of the authors of Arizona's controversial immigration law as an adviser. Obama, meanwhile, used his executive powers to grant two-year deferrals to hundreds of thousands of young undocumented immigrants.
There's no question that Republicans lost votes because of their hard-line stance, said Gary Segura, a Stanford University political science professor who runs Latino Decisions polling. Some 60 percent of Latino voters know someone who's living in the country illegally, according to the polling.
"When you talk about self-deportation, you're not talking about an abstract immigrant," Segura said. "You're talking about someone that the respondent knows, cares for and may in fact be related to."
The Latino Decisions poll also found that 31 percent of Latino voters would be more likely to vote Republican if the party "took a leadership role" on immigration.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev, pledged Wednesday to introduce an immigration package next year. He told Republicans they'd reject it at their own peril.
A coalition of Latino groups, including the United We Dream youth network, hopes to work with Reid and House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, to find a solution.
They already have begun strategy sessions. One conversation that's happening behind closed doors is whether it's better to push for a larger, comprehensive immigration package or start with a more targeted DREAM Act, which would benefit the most sympathetic illegal immigrants but not necessarily their parents.
Whatever is introduced, the legislation probably would need to be broken into parts to get conservatives on board, said Michael Franc, the vice president of government studies at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative Washington research center.
Republicans are more willing to talk, but the conversation needs to focus more on highlighting economic-growth potential, attracting highly skilled labor and not perpetuating the welfare state, Franc said.
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush has made the case in the starkest terms. He told New York Magazine last month that he expects the Democratic presidential candidate to win Texas in 2016, which hasn't happened since 1980. Some 26 percent of Texas' eligible voters are Hispanic, the second-largest Hispanic eligible-voter share nationally, according to the Pew Hispanic Center.
"It's a math question," Bush said. "Four years from now, Texas is going to be a so-called blue state. Imagine Texas as a blue state – how hard it would be to carry the presidency or gain control of the Senate."
Republicans leaders more likely will be the ones who trigger change within the party. The chorus continues to grow, from Rubio to Bush to Grover Norquist, the founder of Americans for Tax Reform.
Frank Sharry, the executive director of America's Voice, which advocates for rights for undocumented immigrants, said he expected Republican senators such as McCain and South Carolina's Lindsey Graham, who previously supported comprehensive changes in immigration policy, also to play a role.
"This is not rocket science," Sharry said. "If they want to win the White House again, they need to get immigration off the table."

The positive energy at COA is infectious. When everyone around you is incredibly passionate about what they're studying, it's hard to resist your own curiosity. The concept of going to class is completely redefined at the college by spirited professors, field work, independent studies, and hands-on applications. COA believes that college should not be a time out of life, but should be a time of learning that inspires your future. Professors become good friends. Your education is virtually completely up to you - if you have an idea, people at the college will be enthusiastic to help make it happen....
To find more tips for prospective students, what to do for fun and whether this school is great for a particular type of student read the 11 reviews for College of the Atlantic
Curious about something that isn't answered here? Feel free to ask College of the Atlantic a question
College of the Atlantic has a great program for freshmen but the rest of its program fails to live up to the admissions office's advertisements. Most classes in this interdisciplinary program are taught at an exclusively introductory level inappropriate for seekers of STEM graduate degrees. The community is tight knit and inclusive.Read More
This is Human Ecology. A major where you have extreme academic freedom to choose your classes. I was looking for a school with many majors that seemed to suit me that way I could change my major without having to change schools. Here you have one major an can change and grow with your studies and shift emphasis without totally putting yourself years back with required classes.Read More
Basically, it's for people who are serious about what they're doing and want to change the world. It's for people who don't want to define themselves to one major and instead see the world as interconnected. It's a college for doers.Read More
COA is a wonderful, inspiring, exciting and challenging school. The single interdisciplinary major provides so much academic freedom and allows students to follow their passions and learn everything agriculture to art, marine biology to psychology. The faculty are exceptional and the school has a very student focused approach.Read More
Love the Human Ecology Major. Wonderful location. Very small size so everyone would know your name.Read More
If this college is anything, it's genuine. From the people to the location, everything about COA is holistic and caring. From the moment I set foot on campus to when I left two days later, I felt like I was home- I was incredibly at peace -and unshakably happy.Read More
Built to let you find your own way to your own passion. Wedged between the Atlantic Ocean and a national park, it's the perfect setting for experiential learning. This is a school of Human Ecology, and it's up to the students to make that phrase do work for them.Read More
