Well softball is in full swing and we've been playing in a lot of tournaments already. The OK Legends played in Owasso in a tournament for cancer and came in 2nd. They played 6 games back to back. This team is made up of girls from all over, Broken Arrow, Catossa, Porter, Tulsa and Collinsville. The 3 girls from Collinsville are Kristina Shearer (Mighty Mouse), Kassidy Murphy (Butch), and Danni Corizine. We did pick up another Collinsville girl for the weekend and that was Allisa Wilson.

We are very proud of the girls.

Thanks!!!! -- Carolyn Jensen (5/7/2008)

(May 13th) Bond and Millage Election

Tulsa County Voters will be asked May 13, 2008 to approve a bond and millage election to raise $76 million for new TCC facilities and an additional $8 million in annual revenue to support operations for the current and new facilities at TCC. In addition to new facilities at each of TCC's four campuses, the proposal provides $16 for a new learning center north of Owasso.

According to the TCC web site: The enrollment of full-time TCC students has risen more than 18% in the past 8 years. TCC's annual awarded degrees and certificates have risen 42 percent. Capital projects would be funded by 7-year bonds totaling $76 million. 1.7 mills property tax increase (at a current value of $7.9 million) would go towards operating expenses. An estimated $50 increase would result for a home owner with a $100,000 home.

TCC Facts (from their web site):
* TCC serves nearly 27,000 students annually in college credit courses and another 7,300 in corporate training and continuing education classes. More than 400,000 students have attended TCC since it opened in 1970.
* TCC's tuition and fees are half those at Oklahoma public universities.
* TCC offers more than 200 degree and certificate programs.
* TCC ranks 17th in the nation among 1,150 community colleges annual graduates.
