At the casual end of things, it's a shockingly effective strategy for lifelong good health. Walking has a unlikely virtue-it's inefficiency. If you want to work major muscle groups, get your blood moving and take in oxygen, then efficiency is not your first priority. Studies show that walkers who travel just four miles and hour are working hard enough to greatly reduce their risk of heart disease. Walking briskly can also boost immune response, cutting down on colds and flu's. Getting started To begin a walking program, keep in mind that you're in no big hurry. This is lifetime health, not overnight magic. For now, forget stopwatches, heart rates, and technique. Just go for a walk at a comfortable pace slightly above a stroll. Fifteen to 30 minutes would be nice (If you're over 45 or a health problem and this is your first step toward fitness, check with a doctor first). Beyond strolling Measure your time. Start by timing how long it takes you to walk a mile comfortable on flat ground. Chances attending all eight of their classes," explains Gabriel Kalama.

COCC board of directors voted to offer rebate to full time students The board of directors of the Central Oregon Community College recently voted to offer tuition rebates to full-time students for up to three credits beginning spring term. For the past five years, tuition has been computed on a per-credit basis, regardless of the number of credits.' ' Starting spring term, students who are taking at least 12 will be eligible to receive a tuition rebate of $38 per credit (the cost of regular in-district , tuition) for the next three credits. The rebate will be $39 per credit for the 1999-2000 school year. Student fees and lab fees will remain unchanged. The COCC board is offering this rebate to encourage students to reach : ' their degree goals in a more reasonable and economical time frame. An associate degree, requiring a minimum of 93 credits, is designed , to be completed in two years- if a , student enrolls in 15 to 16 credits each term. Many COCC students enroll in 12 credits per term, the minimum for full-time status, extending the completion of their degree by several terms.
