Oregon Institute of Technology By: Tiffanie Frei
Introduction • Oregon Institute of Technology or OIT is the local University here in Klamath Falls, OR. • OIT doesn't just focus on there students graduating, but…… • OIT also play an important role to our community, schools, and families. This is a picture of the Lego Beginner's summer camp
OIT and Our Community of Klamath Falls, OR • One event that OIT has held for 3 years now and is continuing to grow is known as the Pink Out Game. • The Pink Out Game is where the men’s and woman’s basketball teams wear pink uniforms and play a special game that is dedicated to cancer awareness. • The profits from ticket sales go to the Endowed scholarship fund. • This scholarship was dedicated to the schools former president Martha Anne Dow Endowed, who lost her fight to cancer. • At the end of the night the scholarship is awarded to a lucky OIT student.
OIT’s Dental Clinic • For our local families and elementary schools OIT opens their Dental Hygiene Clinic to the public. • The care for the participants is done by the students who are in the Dental program. • There fees range from no charge up to $125. • The students perform normal cleanings, evaluations, x-rays, and more. • You can go to the following website for more information http://www.oitdentalhygieneclinic.com/fees/
OIT’s Dental Clinic Continued • Besides being open to the general public OIT’s Dental Hygiene students also provide a fluoride program for some of our local elementary students who are in 1st and 5th grade. • These students of course need their parents permission to participate.
OIT’s Summer Programs • OIT offer’s several different summer camps for children to try out. • Some of the camps offered are: • Basketball • Volleyball • Softball • Lego robotics • Film production Camps range from $99- $250 http://www.oit.edu/libraries/admissions_general/summer_camps_flyer_2011.pdf
OIT Final Thoughts • Overall I think that OIT plays an important role in our community, schools, and families partnerships. • OIT provides several games, and community ED classes for the community and families to attend. • OIT also provides a couple of days were they welcome the middle schools and high schools students to come to the campus and they get to take part in some classes that are offered at OIT. • I can’t wait to see what OIT will provide Klamath Falls with in the future. • For further information about OIT you can go to: • www.oit.edu
