OCC focuses much of its efforts on the welfare of students who do not reside in University-managed housing. Since off-campus students vary widely in age, interests, institutional identification or affiliation and reside in various local communities, efforts to provide service are multifaceted, purposeful and specific to current needs.

We aim to provide services and programs that support the University's goal of achieving an environment that encourages and promotes educational excellence.
